Hardly any to be honest. You're getting same engine and components.

nope. I am looking to see what is different between 2011 and 2012 . I want to buy a Bently service manual, but they only go up to 2011 for now. I have a 2012 .

My 2011 has black/carbon fiber looking interior trim. Has bluetooth standard. Has 2 back up lights. So no difference since 2011?
