Evo ix model colors

Was looking to pick up a nice clean evo ix as a permanent keeper/project car after winter and its either gotta be black or blue like any other car I'd buy. Was just wondering if its possible to get the evo ix se model in eb blue? I'll be looking to get a SE if I have my way but if not possibly a SSL(hear lots of sketchy stuff on sunroof in the evos) and swap seats out. Not interested in the MR or the 6spd as well as the RS.

SE was black, silver or grey only. So at least you have black if you are dead set on the SE.

Thrilling Visual and Performance Enhancements at an Excellent Value Distinguish 2006 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution SE

July 31, 2006 -- CYPRESS, Calif. --
Mitsubishi Motors North America (MMNA) is applying the "Special Edition"; treatment to its critically acclaimed ninth-generation Lancer Evolution. The 2006 Lancer Evolution SE offers special features at a competitive price of $33,249 MSRP to make this legendary performance vehicle even more thrilling. The new SE trim level represents the final enhancement to a Lancer Evolution body style that has been on sale in the U.S. market since 2003.

Inside the Special Edition trim level, supportive, red-stitched RECARO(R) seats accentuate the interior while the exterior receives a new front airdam extension that adds style while reducing front end lift. A lightweight aluminum roof panel, also found on the Lancer Evolution RS and MR, helps control body roll by lowering the vehicle's center of gravity. The feather weight 17"; forged BBS(R) alloy wheels, now in a new "Diamond Black"; finish, add style while reducing unsprung weight to improve suspension performance. The SE trim level also includes high-intensity discharge (HID) headlights with halogen fog lamps giving the vehicle a distinctive look. The available exterior color choices for the Lancer Evolution SE are Apex Silver, Graphite Gray and Tarmac Black.

True to the Lancer Evolution's heritage, the SE is powered by a 2.0-liter inline four-cylinder DOHC intercooled-turbocharged engine with Mitsubishi Innovative Valve timing and Electronic Control (MIVEC) that is mated to a rugged 5-speed transmission.

The revised airdam, Recaro(R) seats with red stitching, and forged BBS(R) wheels with "Diamond Black"; finish are available on the MR trim level as well in the form of an Appearance Package which sells for $500.00.

Thanks apex! and I figured black was going to be my only real option with a SE which is honestly no issue since I love black as well haha. They didn't make the SSL in electron blue either did they? And It might as well be impossible to find a low low mileage ix MR with 5spd swap in 95% stock condition inside and out. Mitsu should of gave us more options : (
