OPINION....What would probably be the most subtle styling change between a 'round light' 1963, and a late 1964 'square light' Studebaker Avanti....a change that is rarely mentioned?

HINT!..... exterior

Not the grille either....The grille was considered quite a well known change. (IMHO)

Pirate buckle emblem on hood color changed the "S" from gold to silver.

Sorry no, that change is also widely known... (to Avanti fans anyway!)

The cowl vents…a vent was added to direct cooling air to the transmission so the shifter wouldn’t be so hot.

Nope, that one is quite widely known also! 🥺

Color from red to maroon.

Good thought...and the '64 color change is 'almost' as elusive...however, once again, that isn't it!

Turn signal or running lights from white to amber?

No, that one was on a service letter Stude sent out.

Position of the Avanti emblem on the front.

YES!!!....You gents did not cry Uncle! ....WELL DONE!!

IMHO the 1" (?)  down placement of thr front AVANTI nameplate on the 'square lights' is hardly ever mentioned or thought of!
