nice to see some actual news and not just rumors.

still would like to know the prices though..I dont want to have my heart sink about the MR being $40,000 unless I know for certain

I'm wondering if you could get the navigation and music server in the MR without having to get the entire Technology Package. Otherwise it's a base MR for me and I'll pick up an aftermarket double din navi/music.

so GSR's HAVE to get the SSS package to have the spoiler? hahahah

dklau33

I'd bet there will be a stand alone spoiler option for the GSR. If not then there's going to be a lot of pissed off prospective GSR buyers.

When will we see a pic of non-winged gsr?

mastamind

They really need to have a sports option package for the GSR that adds the shocks/springs, two piece rotors, and BBS wheels from the MR for the people that don't want the TC-SST.

msatchmo

^^^^ OMG that is exactly what i've been saying for about a month now! 100% agree. Not all of us want an automatic...

I guess they should know the power specs of this car by now. These estimations are getting annoying.

If you look more carefully, you can find "rear spoiler" on the list of the major standard features. but the SSS package add "large rear spoiler ". So may be they have two different kind of rear spoilers ?? one is smaller than the other one ??

XRS

The dealers should still be able to order their vehicles with spoilers on them without the full package since many items such as spoilers are added at port. At least that is what Mazda did; or at least that's what my old sales managers told us they did. Now that you mention it, I wonder how the smaller one looks with the wider profile of the evo. I may prefer a lip or the regular lancer spoiler over the tall "fat" Evo X wing.

Smaller spoiler...the one of the 08 lancer?
