There is no "MR SE" technically ... There is an MR with the "Apearance Package." That's exactly how it is listed on my window sticker. They got the lip, the seats and the wheels from the SE and retained all of the other MR goodies like the Bilsteins, 6-speed, aluminum roof, HIDs, brake air guides and the zero-lift kit (front air dam, vortex generator, wickerbill).

They have the same everything as the MR, but with some more shiny stuff.

I can positively tell you that the tuning is the same. My stock ROM is a standard 88590015 ROM.

I know the SE has different stitched recaros, and I believe HID headlights.

The mr has a different suspension from the standard evo, some aluminum body panels, and a 6 speed transmission.

No difference in turbos as far as I know, and I believe both the MR and SE come with the bilsteins(sp?) suspension.

MR SE, just has a combination of all the options of the MR and the regular SE, sort of the ultimate options package, but that's it I believe.

You can SEARCH. There are threads where these are heavily discussed.

SE did not come with bilstein suspension, like other people said differences are only cosmetic, engines are the same and so are roms.

The steering wheel is stitched too, right? There is not a bigger turbo in the MR SE (which as Touring Bubble stated, isn't a true model trim). The MR SE retains the Bilsteins from the MR.

I've heard that too but I believe its because of the manufacturing time in which they were produced.
