Well for me, its doesnt increase any horses, just smoother acceleration @ low end torque. Thats why I didnt bother.

QUOTE(heavencloud @ Apr 28 2010, 11:04 AM) Since i myself been filling up caltex, it made me interested in getting the hsbc amanah credit card coz got rm5 cash rebate when fueling with caltex. But then, saw the promotion expiry date, 31 June 2010  it only applies to HSBC amanah credit card? i thought it applies to all. My non HSBC amanah credit card also got it. i have been getting the rebate for few months. it's rm5 rebate for every rm200 spent on petrol. so if spent 400, u get rm10 rebate. i have gotten rm15 rebate before too. guess i pumped a lot that month... but i noticed last months bill dont have the rebate anymore despite me spending over rm200 on caltex petrol. i do know the expiry date has been extended till 31st June

i have seen non B line Elegance on the road. Not sure whether M or H Line coz I also don't know how to differentiate these 2 from exterior. just know it wasn't using the allow wheels. so much easier to identify an SE

That's B line. B line's side mirror and that plastic thingy on the doors are plain black. And the exhaust look like some recycled pipe

Ermmm... so far I have seen 2 b-line elegance on the road. One Black color at the Kesas highway near the hicom exit and another bronze garnet at the plaza lowyat parking 2 days ago. I guess the elegance b-line has more color freedom choice compared to the previous persona iafm where b-line owners only stuck with genetic silver and iridescent white only.

I like the bronze. The silver one with the new grill looks ganas. I think if you tailgate P driver sure the poor soul will panic Black one look like mafia car.
