not sure if anyone said it, but there are specific safety standards including side airbags and a few other things... It would cost mistu more to redesign the doors and re produce new parts then they would lose if they just didnt sell it for a year.

That white one looks stunning though.... feeling that CD player, is it stock?

Going to wait for Evo X to catch up to evo 8,9 series mods. I really dont like the concept design but i like the new interior and smoother clutch

We hafto have side airbags? I guess that a good thing, but a bad thing for weight and repairability....

Black IX MR.. uhmm there is no such thing.. unless you made it seem like an MR like my buddy did or its an MR with the SE package cuz i've seen one at hawaii mitsu.

oh yeah and SE its just a package.. its not a trim of its own.. so yeah indeed you paid more than you had too for rims, seats, and a lip.. you can only own 3 types of evo ix's rs,gsr and mr.. that is it buddy.. the SE's are just extra package.. that are applied to the GSR and MR's.. cuz they got the damn MR and SE badge off the dealer.. so quicksilver say what you want but a MR is not worthless.. is worth every penny

I second that, the MR is much more car than the SE package. The only other package that I think is better than the MR, is the SSL package on an IX. The leather seats and door trim make the car feel much more comfortable.
If your an older person that is the trim you should have gone with EVO-wise. Sunroof, nice stereo w/ sub and interior. I would have but performance was in my mind not comfort, if it was the other way, the WRX STI would be in my garage.

Also I could care less if that there is not a 2007 version. This brings the value of the current IX up, which is what we all want!!

The less 9's the better but the US market always seems to get screwed out of the good stuff! Makes you want to move if it were not for the fact that it is cheaper here to own almost any make and model of car. Not to mention the realtively cheap price of gas in this country.
