Evo X - Model Year Differences

I personally think it is pretty good. You have the ability to change songs over bluetooth which my GTi was not able to do. The display itself leaves something to be desired. The options for setting a background image and rearview camera seem to be greyed out so I will have to look into that more.
Also you can't make calls from the screen while driving. You have to physically pick up your phone and dial which I think is stupid and more dangerous than the behavior they are trying to prevent. You can do voice commands but I never trust those. Called the ex way too many times by accident...
Overall though it is pretty intuitive and makes it easy to switch between bluetooth sources. It also makes the interior look a little more upscale.

I was most concerned with the Bluetooth streaming and its quality. I'm glad to hear it's seamless.
My current Wrangler doesn't have a touch screen so you are forced to use voice dial or the phone. I think forced voice dial is pretty standard on most new cars for "safety reasons" anyway. My business partner's new Legacy is like this as well.
I have a 2014 MR-T coming in this week so I'm excited to see how much better it is compared to the 2008 X GSR (no options) that I sold a few years back.

I would like to see a pic of this... I'm talking about having the piano black trim around the shifter and continuing up under the heat/AC controls... Mitsubishi lists this option as "center console upgrade" . And on there website you cannot get center console upgrade on GSR unless you have the roof/leather option.... Unless you installed this option yourself or dealer installed.....

Is there a list of the changes made after 2012? I'm looking at getting a new Evo but maybe it'd be worthwhile to look for a lightly used 2011. Seems to be a good year to get everything I want.
