Well What do you want me to do about that, I got Lasik surgery and I can see just fine, I suggest you do the same.
I have already apologised for the picture quality, I can't help that, I didn't take the photo, but if you do look at the second picture I posted you can see the Mitsu emblem is sunken back (floating emblem) and the Holes are there in the front bumper.
Stop being a critic, just cause you didn't find the picture first Whoopy.

The link is from the current 05 VIII range

The IX has just been released, They haven't even updated their website, it took a while for them to update the site when the MR VIII was released.
The site probably won't get updated for a while.
Probably so the sales men can say that the 05 is the last Evo and then some bull s h i t that they won't make it any more

Your absolutley right, nothing has been set in concrete about 2006 Colors,
But right now I am going by the Japanese Site. and right now they show the 6 colors we have right now, it could change between now and the release date.
I still think the way the trim levels have changed designation for the US market, is retarded
Mitsu US needs to keep it consistant with the rest of the world.
Save a lot of confusion that way.
If I was still living in the UK though I would import a USDM evo, it would work out a lot cheaper, for an already awesome car.

In the Touch and Try video it is an Evolution IX in GT trim. The pic posted in this thread is from this video.

GT(JDM) = GSR(USDM)

Roger that EVOM3, that is the only picture of a black IX we have been able to get I apologise for getting it wrong, it is the GT (USDM GSR) but there is still nothing on what the colors for the USDM IX MR are yet, alot of us are hoping that there will be a Black MR available.
JDM Evo's have the option of buying the BBS rims, all the Evo JDM IX'x (except the RS) come with the Enkei's 5 spoke splits.

Yeah it is the GT you don't have to listen to the audio for it to tell you that, there is a designation plate for the display on the cars right rear quarter.
