no they skipped 2007 and went right to 2008. from what i have heard, plz correct me if im wrong, it was because the 06 evo wouldnt comply to new 2007 safety standards. i guess 2 airbags isnt enough?

There was an 07 IX, but it wasn't sold in the US. This was due to new safety mandates and Mitsu decided it wasn't worth the upgrade cost since the X was about to come out.

Never Made one because the dot said 07 and newer needed side air bags so they jus waited to redo the evo when the EVO X came out vs redesigning the interior for a year
