but think about this... the USDM cars are the only ones with a six speed tranny, am I not correct? i think putting paint in their paint booths would be a lot simpler than putting the reserch and development into designing and producing a transmission only for the US. I have no proof but i am grasping my last ray of hope that they wont kill GG, it is part of the reason i wanted the MR. I suppose all we can do is wait, and wait, and wait, (multiply "and wait" one billion more times)

Show me the proof that there are MR's in UK cause there is not any, no GG IX here is my proof. It is right on the webpage I dont see any MR's and no GG either. http://www.mitsubishi-cars.co.uk/evolution/colour.asp I think the MR term was used only on the VIII for the bilstien shocks, aluminum roof, and BBS rims. Now the JDM and UKDM have that on the regular models, (GSR, GT etc.)

UKweb site does NOT list their FQ line as MR's for 2006. Check the web site, hit the product lineup. 3 FQ's, no mention of MR in their name this time.
