Yes, there are actually a few different trims of the Evo. They go in this order of price:
Evo IX RS
Evo IX (also known as the "GSR" in the Evo community)
Evo IX SE
Evo IX MR
The Evo RS has no wing, no ABS brakes, no radio, no power locks, no power windows, black door handles, it's pretty much the bare bones, looking to save some weight. The Evo IX is pretty much everything the Evo RS does not have. The Evo IX SE is an trim that just came out for the Evo about a month ago, that includes red stitched Recaros and on the stitching on the back seats. HID's with in headlamp fog lights, front lip extension, "Diamond Black" BBS wheels, and lastly, an aluminum roof. The MR has gunmetal BBS wheels, HID's, aluminum roof, 6 speed, and an upgraded suspension. Hope this answers all of your Evo questions.

I just got the car a month ago this Friday, so the modding will start by December. I'm going to be doing an intake, full turbo back exhaust, manual boost controller, and a ECU reflash. That mere $1,200 for those mods has put the Evo 9's around the 350 horsepower and torque range, in addition with the ability to run 11's.
