Correct me if I'm wrong but I think they discontinued the IX in the states because all 07 models needs to have side airbags. Something about a new law that was passed. I think they discussed it a while back in some other forums. But back to the car yes its very nice in white, but I was wondering since its an MR what happen to the factory gauges? I know the factory gauges is crappy but still wouldn't you think they give you some sort or gauge set, maybe upgrade the gauges to something better? I dunno just thought I'd asked...

what's the big deal with it being right hand drive? is this just the "grass is greener" effect?
can't tell from the photo...do you get the al. roof standard on the model as the SEs come here?. I actually like that head unit, and the double din improves the car a lot... (come on, Phil @ 201 - come through for us!
)
great car...enjoy

I heard the JDM and "other" evos get the ic sprayer, hid's, etc. etc. basically everything on our 8's and 9's all in one package. Including the ayc. Is that true?
....kind of makes me jealous actually.

Hi all
Thanks for the all the comments.
Alot of people have mentioned model types like MR, SE etc and in Australia our EVO range is limited to one car basically what I have minus those BBS rims and the Bilstien suspension. In AU we get those BBS mags and suspension as a factory option they call the performance pack. My car without those 2 items is stock standard.
Our stock car and its included options are on this link
http://www.ralliart.com.au/RalliartV...IX.aspx?item=2
We do get AYC and ACD with our cars
Some other factory options are below

And if you are interested the Australian Brochure for the EVO IX spec
http://www.ralliart.com.au/downloads...X_Brochure.pdf
Even the EVO 8s we had came in just the one model, exactly the same as the 9 really with the same option of a performance pack. I think however their was an option for a full leather interior, plus a few other factory options like the nine offers.
We do have some JDM EVO 8 MR models here that have been imported in from auctions, but the standard 8 was a limited Mitsubishi import (couple hundred only) and the 9 is the first EVO to be aloud to be imported in as many as they can sell, not just a couple hundred like previous models.
Hope that helps.
