Mitsubishi are yet to release official details concerning their Evo X Australian line-up, but if you know where to look...
The Aussie Evo X line-up will feature three variants, the GSR, GSR SS-T and the top shelf MR. As the names suggest the GSR is available with either the new Twin Clutch Sports Shift Transmission (SS-T) or a conventional five-speed manual. Recaro seats along with 18-inch ENKEI alloys are standard fitment.
The Evo X in its ultimate (and most expensive) form is the MR. Buy the MR and you will enjoy a combination Bilstein and Eibach suspension setup along with an upgraded Brembo brake system. You'll also get 18-inch alloys sporting the revered BBS logo. On the inside, the MR gets leather heated Recaro pews, Mitsubishi's Multi Communication System and a premium Rockford Fosgate audio system.
In addition to the road going Evo’s, Mitsubishi is also offering The Evo X ‘RS’ Rally/Race model for motorsport competitors. The RS is now available for sale through Team Mitsubishi Ralliart but is not road registerable.

MR is a surprisingly high price - I would have thought this was the on-road price. Guessing you would need another 8K to get it on the road taking it up to a cool 80K odd to drive away.
I like the idea of the stock X coming with recaro seats, however the 5sp manual tranny seems wrong to me. Appears that Mitsu just wanted a further differentiator from the SST when they made that decision, rather than basing it on a good technical basis.

I get what your saying though, since the IX did have a 6 speed and there is the Release of the new TC-SST box. The thing is you have a conspiracy against the changes that have been made, but the top and bottom of it is, the old six speeder was a little on the weak side and the gear ratios were a touch too long.
