B211 is the chassis code for the minor facelift of the B210, starting December 1975. B211 included the second-series grilles and other minor changes. The cars were still called B210s -- only the chassis number changed and only in the Japan domestic market (JDM). Export models continued with B210 chassis code even though they include the changes.
