Of course every little thing matters, including the speedo. It can't be swapped between the two variants. Chrome grill has strips inside the headlight as well, which requires swapping the lights with new ones or pasting cheap chrome stickers over them.
People want their car to show off status. If all this were available in 1.6 altis, people simply won't give a single f**k to whether its a CVTi or Super ECTi. Only buyers like me who got the car to check out the new transmission would have bought it.
Heck, I didn't even know about the new 2ZR-FE until I got the car... lol
