Leather in GSR X?

Is this an option? Last I heard it was just for the MR, is that still the case?

Have not heard anything released on this. I would not be surprised to see upgraded seat surfaces on the MR

I've got the 08 Lancer Evolution brochure here and this is what it says:

GSR- Black sports fabric, geometric printed trim

MR- Black leather and sueded, phantom black trim

Now, if i look under the equipment comparison

the GSR is listed with sports fabric interior and the leather and sueded seating surface is not available....However, under the list of accessories available for the car it lists "leather trimmed interior"


Also, on a side note it also lists that the GSR comes with a black grille, while the MR has a graphite silver grille...and now that i look at the pictures the grille colors for the MR and GSR are slightly different. Weird

You can alwayse do what I am going to do.... send it out to a trim shop and have aftermarket leather installed. price...about $800- $1500 depending if you want it like factory with leather and binal on the backing and sides or all 100% leather like me...
