because the lower model probably sells more. like bmw 328 vs 335.

I wonder if those headlights and bumper can be retrofitted. I don't imagine the hood or fenders being different

Looks like the hood and fenders are the same. But i bet those headlights are expensive.

I'm with you. I thought that the front-end of the current model is overdone, but it looks tame in comparison to the 2017.

You sure about that? Pay attention to the angles. That would be an EXPENSIVE factory retooling procedure for such a minor sheetmetal change. The die-press alone would easily be in the 7 figures. I am fairly confident the hood is the same. no reason to change it for a mid-cycle refresh.
