Evo IX MR vs. Evo IX MR SE
MR is differnet with winglet extention, suspension and 6 speed thats it NOT WORTH 5K MORE.. Theres no MR SE its either MR or SE(special edition) not both together... But other wise MR and Se are same in apperance.. Samelip Same BBS rims.... (different Shades) (hyper black, Gun,metal, fq400 Black... so on
There IS an MR se. You cant get a regular MR in black though
So to the OP, if you want a black MR, MR SE is your only choice.
If you want a Silver or grey MR, you can get an MR SE or just an MR
If you want a white or red MR, you cannt get an MR SE
The only diff between the two are the front lip and redstiched seats (and diamond black bbs rims)

No MR with the appearance package (SE package) has an SE badge that I know of. Mine didn't.

I have an MR SE. There is nothing on the car the says it an MR SE (aka a badge) but you get the red stitching on the seats that the SE has, 6speed with aluminum shift knob, carbon fiber hand brake handle, the SE front lip, BBS wheels(I dont remember which ones, but they are different). There are a few other things i dont remember. Some mentioned the extended air dams, i have those.
So pretty much you get an MR with a kick of SE.
I have heard that MR SE's are not made form the factory that way. They were a dealership thing that dealerships did to try to sell more but im not sure exactly if thats true.
So if you really want the red stitching and what not go with the MR SE. I dont think its really worth that much extra money for it. I got mine only because i bough it cheap with 396mile on it but TOTALED

I thought the main difference between a SE & an MR is the SE comes with a 5 speed??? 
Edit: I guess you can get a IX SE and a MR SE. hmm, learned something new
I prefer the IX SE!

No, the MR SEs came in the same colors as the SEs... silver, gray and black. Perhaps what you meant to say is that if you wanted a black MR, it had to be an MR SE, since the MRs (without the Appearance Package) weren't made in black.
iI guess you're right on the other colors of MR SE models, i just probably thought that the MRs i saw werent SEs as well.
I'm sure you all know ... this has been covered before ...

N I C E ! ! !I like the 2013 thing. Seriously, where did this 2007 deadline come from then? Are these dealerships just making **** up out there ****ing asses? What's worse, i've heard it from dealerships that were NOT even mitsu as well. Dealerships never cease to amaze me.
