+1 to everyone who said buy what you like now.
But, as a general rule, a well constructed solid wood acoustic will, to a degree, open up with play (but it's hard to document because it takes a while). From my experience this means development of bass, increased responsiveness and dynamic range, and taming of the trebles. Not a seismic shift - but a guitar just becoming a little bit more of what it already is.
If you've ever played a guitar that's fresh off the bench and just strung up, you should have a sense of the tightness of a brand new guitar. With playing, they seem to loosen and develop more bloom - and that's what I expect when I buy a brand new guitar. But I also only buy what I love now, so, while I expect a marginal improvement, I don't buy based on the anticipation of what that will be.
