From all the pictures above, it looks like the wing is native carbon. It's visibly darker than the body paint in each picture it's in.

Beautiful

Congratulations Wayne!

The closest AWD Dyno and Tuning shop I know of is Brainstorm in West LA/Culver City. Try giving them a ring.

If not, I'm sure a fellow EvoM'er will give you some additional information.

Welcome to the club and enjoy your MR!

Talking Got a red MR in Florida

Picked up my red MR on Saturday (10/16/04) right off the truck! Purchased it for MSRP from Cannon in Lakeland, FL. Great family owned dealer. My red MR has body colored sides on the spoiler. It's a great car that I can't wait to get out of break-in!

My only real complaint at this time is the gauge cluster location. I might switch locations with the radio like the previous poster did. Otherwise they are just entertainment for the passenger, especially the turbo gauge.

I just put my order in for a Red MR at Phil Smith Mitsubishi on Saturday the 16th. Should get it some time mid December, so it's going to be the ultimate X-Mass present. I can't wait.

Johny((, how do you like the Red, does it look good with the gun mettle gray rims?

Well said, I'm sick of people asking what did you pay "OTD"... then when they get the answer, it's NEVER low enough for them, and they have to make some kind of comment on how they would never get raped liek that blah blah blah

Got myself an MR

Hey guy,
I just got an MR over the weekend. The car is so refine comparing to my mods 03 that I may not do any mod to it.
The ride is so smooth and quiet, the shift feels excellent, the smell... what can I say! I always love that new car smell.
I cannot comment on the power and handling yet since I'm not pushing it (breaking it in) but I can feel the power delivery a little faster than the 03 (less turbo lag).
Anyway, I decided to take back my 03 (not trading it in) so now I got myself 2 EVOs sitting in my garage :-)
Despite all that, I still love my 03. It's not as refine but it's raw and brutal with all the mods I got. By the way, I may give the MR to the wife since it's must easier to drive for a lady than the 03 and she's starting to like it.

PS. Should I bring it to the track this Friday if I only managed to put 500 miles on it? If not, I may bring it anyway but will take it easy on the track (Willow Spring).
