You can do that yourself for under $100 in factory parts and a half hour worth of easy work: https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...d.php?t=326760

That DIY covers installing the bluetooth module as well, but as you'll see there you can do the audio only. I did it the first weekend that I had the car.

I don't like the color for some reason, but the steering wheel controls would be nice. I do like my little card slot near the cup holders on the center console though (where the AWC switch is on the MR and 09 GSR). Wouldn't want to have to relocate the AWC there, I like to throw my keys in it.

the audio controls are not that hard to add, not really into that color, BT i'm pretty sure will be standard since they offer it on the GTS and the RA. Taillights i have already lol. . . .i think those are all the changes. i doubt they added any hp or tq, maybe just from the factory reflash.

The pictures aren't doing it for me, but I bet it looks fabulous in person.

Unfortunately this is one of those cases where the company listens to the community... and now they've added the RalliArt tails, which look bad, and cheap. The 08 EVO X tails look so much better.

I wanted to keep the cubby too, so when I installed the steering whel controls I put the AWC switch in the blank on the dash next to the ASC button. Makes more sense to me there, and I keep the cubby and avoid more switch blanks. It's all noted in that DIY thread I linked to above.
