3) 3.70 differential ratio.
4) Ventilated rear brake disks.
5) Auto headlight turn-on on VL model.
6) Different climate control system to US model.
7) Electric folding wing mirrors
8) "Power Mode" button
9) Clear turn signals with orange repeaters behind front wheel arches
10) Lights are wired differently
11) Automatic door locking
12) Infrared remote control key for drivers door
13) JDM spoiler
14) Distress flare
15) "Boxer" throttle body cover.
16) Alcyone hood ornament and rear light panel
17) 12 disc CD changer on VL model. (sometimes with optional steering wheel controls)
