does the red MR badge come with the 2010 MR touring only or even for the 2010 MRs ?
btw, does the seat on the MR have ride height adjustment ?
wondering if a person that is like about 5 feet tall able to drive the car lol

The stars all come stock in chrome. I had my paint guy color match the MR badges and make the stars metallic red.

So no it just looks like a normal lancer to the untrained eye. This is what i dont like about al the new lancers and evos, the look the same. On prevous years you could tell they were different cars.

That's only true on the VII, VIII and IX. If you look at the Evo I-VI, they all look very similar to the base lancers. So technically, the X is closer to the original Evo's in terms of differentiation (or not, in this case) from their Lancer counterparts.

if you need the seat to be taller HKS makes a taller seat frame. one thing of note is that the recaros are already quite tall. if you raise the seat the top of the recaros will come even closer to the roof. MR-T's also lose very little amount of headroom due to the sunroof so keep that in mind as well.
im 5' 5" and its fine. not good, just fine. i could see how raising the seat would help a lot. for me right now i have a hard time seeing the hood and the trunk. right blind spot is good, but the left (driver side) blind spot is huge because the recaros are quite big and the B-pillar is thick as heck. so i have my seat adjusted so that when i turn my head i can look in between the seat and the B-pillar. good thing the car is fast
you'd have to be hauling @ss in order to hit me when im changing lanes
