a. The GSR will be available in 5 colors:
i. Wicked White
ii. Cool Silver

b. The A00 package GSR will come with halogen headlamps and the MSRP is priced at $35,000~
c. The A04 'SSW' package will add on HIDs, a 650 Rockford sound system and the rear wing spoiler. No detail on cost.
C. The MR will only be available in a TC-SST transmission.
D. The MR will come in one of two ways: Base A06 package and an 'luxury' A11 package.
a. The MR will be available in 5 colors:
i. Wicked White

c. The A11 'luxury' package will include a 30GB HDD MMCS Navigation system, FAST key, bluetooth, cruise control, climate control, etc...

Mitsubishi is looking for the sales leader to be the 'SSW' GSR. They are also looking at the median household income of a GSR buyer to be around $90k and the MR buyer to be around $112k.

Don't take that for truth, the guy won't tell his source and hasn't shown anything. It may be true, may be BS. Notice all of the prices are approximate and round numbers.
