I'm considering ordering a evo.
I told the dealer I can't decide if I want the '10 or '11 until I have more information regarding possible changes.
Nothing worse than ordering a car, and find out 2 months later the new version has something you wanted.
Anyway, dealer gave me 2011 Lancer Evolution guide. I don't have a scanner so here's briefly whats in it..
It only lists the GSR 5MT and MR TC-SST, so no MR 5MT option
Also, no 2011 SE either... I thought they would of carried that over since it was just released? Just because it's not on the pricing guide doesn't mean there will not be 11 SE, but if there was one I would assume it would be listed with the other '11 evo's.
The only difference I can see on the base options listing is FUSE, MP3.
Since I have only been looking at buying one of these for the past week I don't know if some of these are different.. maybe someone else can confirm:
Drivers Knee Air Bag
Center Console Mounted ACD Switch (? isn't this on the left of steering wheel on the '10)
Front Strut Tower Bar (I assume the '10 has this, but again I'm not sure)
Front Aluminum Fenders
245/40 R18 Yokohama Advan tires
Options on the GSR
P1 Sunroof and Leather Package: Leather seating surfaces, power glass sunroof, heated front seats, center console upgrade, leather armrest, sound dampening enhancement.
p2 sight sound package: HID, 710watt Fosgate 9speakers/10" sub, Sirius, Fast Key.
Premium Paint charge option: Phantom Black
The MR has a P4 Premium Package which has several things including Body color fender and hood vents, the salesman told me the air vents behind the front wheel are painted the same as the car, chrome grille surround and beltline molding (? what is that), stereo 710 watt...
Anyway, I have 6 pages of information here.. let me know if you have any questions.. and if someone can answer my questions above that would be great..

No.. it has "TBD" in the Dealer and Retail price boxes.
I've been looking at this a little more throughout the day.
Under MR standard features it lists "lip spoiler", and I don't see an option for any other spoiler.
Under GSR standard features it lists "large rear spoiler".
Aero Kit is not an option for '11 MR. It is listed as option for GSR.
Is the Aero Kit an option on the '10 MR?
Packages listed:
Sunroof and Leather GSR only
Sight and Sound GSR only (note no SSS sight/sound/spoiler package)
Touring MR only
Premium MR only
Interior Sport MR and GSR
Chrome MR and GSR
Navigation MR and GSR
I don't see roter glow metallic up charge. I'm going to assume color might be discontinued?
edit: I told the dealer I'm not making a decision regarding what I'm ordering until I have pricing info on the '11. Hopefully I will have something this upcoming week.
Lastly, kind of off topic, I thought I was sold on the MR... seats, suspension upgrades.. After doing some research it seems like the launch control, and off the line pickup is poor compared to the GSR. All considering it seems like the GSR is the better route to go?.. Does this seem like it makes sense or am I missing something?

Would really like leather and sun roof on my gsr that i am picking up on the 20th, but i am just getting back to the states and can't wait for a car, plus you loose the aluminum roof with the sunroof. The leather seats do look nice though. Wonder what the extra cost would be?

i would love the extra sound proofing , but I think if i find a 2010 WW w/ SSS I would get that one in December since I would be able to save some money, since I don't see a whole lot of difference between the two models. ALTHOUGH i wonder what they mean by an UPGRADED center console?????
'11 MR Just like the '10 SE, no option for large spoiler.
I've always associated the wing with an evo. I know some people really don't like it, but it's too bad they don't give you an option to get the large spoiler with MR features on the '11.
But... GSR with leather and large spoiler included

11 will be the first year for a base X MR, 08,09 and 10's came with everything
Not entirely true.
08 = just the MR base
09 = n/a (no Evos)
10 = MR base and MR Touring
And if I read some of these posts right:
11 = MR base and MR Touring and MR Premium
08 = just the MR base
09 = n/a (no Evos)
10 = MR base and MR Touring
