Interesting that in the US Mitsubishi can't confirm numbers for you guys. I got Japanese spec numbers that may help a little.
EVO 8MR 3000 built
EVO9 5000 built
EVO9MR 1500 built
All EVO8's came with the 6 spoke Enkei's and only the 8MR had the BBS option.
All EVO9's came with the split 5 spoke and the 9MR aslo had the BBS option.
All the BBS option wheels are grey.
Production run for the US I doubt would have been much more than these and it looks like the factory options may be a little different as well.
Hope this helps.

Impossible for 2 reasons:
1. There's no such thing as a MR SE, but there is a MR with an Appearance Package
2. The Appearance Package was only available in silver, gray, and black - no WW
This being said, if you're looking for a MR, it's the most common IX, so it shouldn't be that hard to find. Good luck.
FWIW, a link to USDM numbers was posted earlier in the thread:
0358 - Evolution IX RS
3667 - Evolution IX (includes SE editions)
4176 - Evolution IX MR
8201 - Total exported Evolution IX to North America (USA)
