The holes are supposed to route cool air to the intake according to press releases. Also the front bumper along with some underpan fairings are supposed to improve the areodynamics. The headlights and rear tailights have some minor changes. The evo now has mivec and a needed update to the interior. According to press releases the MR is the only version with a 6 speed again, none of the models come with the AYC in the US. The Evo IX bumper is pretty much unchanged from the VIII whereas the rest of the world gets the updated rear bumper.

I want to purchase an EVO, I was waiting for the IX, but know an VIII looks even better. The rest of the world gets an Evo IX with more options, power and improvements, but once again the US gets a watered down version that is harldy better than an VIII. The real question is how is MIVEC going to come into play with modifications. Which engine is better for building more power, a MIVEC or a non-MIVEC 4g63?
