I think it depends on whether you have an interior upgrade package or something along those lines. My 2012 GSR with SS does not have the cubby hole doors. It's wide open.

 

With GSR, only the leather equipped cars come with the center console cubby doors....

 

Is it correct that the newer cars have the aero kit side skirts as a standard feature?

 

In Australia there have been more changes.

2011 saw the addition of reversing camera to both.

Also 2013 the MMCS has changed

2013 has wicked white replaced with starlight white (metallic)

 

have difference for 2010+ 2011 2012, non aero kit side skirt?

is the same?

 

It looks like the 2014s don't have the 6-Disc CD changer with the SS package.

 

Interesting, looks like you may be right. When you check the Mitsu webpage it makes no mention of the 6 disc changer in the SS package for the 2014 but it does for the 2013.

 

Gotta pay for the base model backup cameras somehow....

 

They have rear backup camera's? I didn't see that mentioned anywhere on the Mitsu site unless I am overlooking it? Here is what they list standard:

• 291-horsepower turbocharged 2.0-liter DOHC MIVEC engine
• 5-speed manual transmission
• Super All-Wheel Control (S-AWC)
• Brembo® braking system
• Aluminum roof, hood and front fenders
• 18 x 8.5-inch alloy wheels with 245/40R18 Yokohama ADVAN® tires
• Large rear spoiler
• Rear diffuser with dual exhaust outlets
• Leather-wrapped sport steering wheel
• RECARO® semi-bucket sport seats with fixed head rests
• FUSE Hands-free Link System® with USB port
• 140-watt CD/MP3/HD Radio® audio system with six speakers
• 6.1-inch touchscreen audio display
• SiriusXM® Satellite Radio with three months pre-paid service
• Remote keyless entry
• Seven-airbag safety system including a driver's knee airbag˛
• Sport ABSł with Electronic Brakeforce Distribution

 

Could be wrong but I heard that's why 14 base model got the screen. Was so they'd have a screen in all models regardless of options, just in time for the backup camera mandate.

 

They still have the option for the back up sensors, but I don't see anything mentioned about the camera though.

The gov't is going to mandate a rear view camera?

 

I have an '08 GSR.. I've noticed that the Low Pressure A/C hose end that goes into the A/C compressor is bigger on the '11 GSR. Kind of a minor difference but really pissed me off.

There were slight packaging differences too. 2010 MR's had a high wing and Rockford fosgate standard without nav. 2011's got Bluetooth streaming via FUSE.

Also, TC-SST programming was more aggressive as of 2010. I've retrofitted the color LCD, cubbies, and TC-SST programming for my 2008.

 

Don't even get me started on the Canadian packages. They came in different years with different options. I know that the 80-09 Canadian cars came with a rear diffuser(paint coloured though) which went a lot higher then all evos. like this http://i292.photobucket.com/albums/m.../rearmod-1.jpg
