At least we got a sweet lookin interior. Isn't that another main feature that you guys wanted? They got rid of the crappy blue and added alacantara and leather in black and grey, with "carbon fiber look" dash inserts.

Anyone notice this?
"A new air dam extension and rear-wing wicker bill also are available as dealer options. These advanced aerodynamic devices improve the high-speed handling and stability of the Lancer Evolution IX by increasing downforce, reducing front and rear wheel lift and enhancing the front-rear aerodynamic balance of the vehicle."

Apart from the MIVEC, minor outside body design changes nothing major seems to have changed. I thought they would bring SYC to the US with the 9. I'm glad I got my MR ...

The boost gauge kit? This is standard on the '05 RS and '05 MR, nothing different there, it's an accessory item on both for the regular.

There are few differences, MIVEC, front bumper, small interior change. Notice that the regular Evolution IX doesn't even have an aluminium roof panel!

Evolution 8 MR != Evolution IX regular.

Its ok but I don't think that it should be colored like it is. The black and grey matches every exterior color and you can beat alacantara
