I’ll start with the Porsche 997, the 996 looked alright imo, but it looks “like a 90s Porsche”, the 997 made it look sleeker and more modern. Still looks good today.

As for cars that looked worse after a facelift? Maybe the facelifted 6th gen Camaro? The 6th gen looked great pre-facelift, but they did something weird with the headlights and now it looks so-so…

    The VQ35DE to the VQ35HR engine changed nearly 80% of the parts.

    VQ35HR and 37VHR are effectively the same engine in terms of bottom end. Stroke increased for the extra displacement, bore stays the same. The differences dual-intakes, and VVEL were added for better intake & head flow and maybe a few other things also.

    The HR series of the VQ architecture went from 07-2022 in the G/Z cars. It wasn’t a redesign of the engine but more of a final touch
