Think that covers everything
 
nice list, but i think the 1997 MR lancer did not come with a front lip (or atleast iv never seen a 97 lancer come stock with one :p )
but very helpful
should get a list like this going for each model range, would be interesting to see stock/factory extras
 
The 98 MR Coupe came with
- Adjustable height on the drivers seat only
- Intermittent Wiper - Variable
- 6 stack CD player (in the dam boot)
- Spoiler - Rear
 
that was just a rough i know it changed from the CE to CE II to CE2 (CEII & CE2 dont know if the are the same).
Did the cars change much from year to year in the same models

hope this helps some people out with buying and what do you mean for each model range... CC CE CG CH CJ sorta thing.

would of done that but never really looked much into the CC because it is a tad old for my liking and my budget is not big enough for a CG CH CJ.
 
Lancers vary a bit in the front part. Coupes have two fronts, while the sedans look totally different.

Older coupe (CE)

As the other guys have mentioned there are differences in trim and engine as well.
 
i have the ce coupe 2000 model [ ce2 ] has the same front bar / grill as the red car in pic. the secound car [ white one ] looks to be a ce3 model, i think anyway.
 
Sorry to thread mine, but saves starting a new topic.

Where would Mirage sit in this, I'm guessing at base model spec?

Mirage also has a vr-x variant. Pretty similar to the ce mr: black interior, power windows, white dials, lip kit and spoiler. Although it retains the 1.5 engine.
 
The first MR had no front lip. 2000 model had the updated boot as well as the cluster dials changed to white, 2001 front bar changed to the round fog lights.
Also as mentioned above there was vrx mirage which was pretty much the same as the MR with black interior etc but had no fog lights and was only sold in 99 & 2000.

so with the 2000 model where the boot changed but the front bar didn't, is that the ce1 or the ce2 as it seems to have a bit of each?
 
The CE1 Coupe's front bar sticks out a bit and has a fairly small grill and the boot is different the CE2 has a flatter curvier front and bigger grill and different boot and the CE3 is almost the same as the CE2 except the metal grill is taken out and replaced with only a line and the mitsubishi symbol.... Am I right?? then the sedan has the metal grill then is upgraded to be colour coded.

nope, grill bit is incorrect! Newer mirages (00/01+) are the only ones that have the single line grill thing. No lancers have them
Actually ALL front bars with the bigger grill have (or had) that line, mitsubishi just cut out (with what looks like a hack saw) and had a gay ass grill put over it. You can see this if you take the grill off.
 
Ive seen a few MRs for sale with the line grill... I just assumed that it was the last model beyond the metal grill.... Id just take that grill off and put mesh in instead, lol
 
hahahahhahahha its not metal, its crappy painted ugly plastic. Yea I want another grill to play with to try put some real mesh in it and then put a silver mitsubishi badge on it. would look much better.
 
Last time i went to the wreckers, they had a whole bunch of ce mrs all with these grills on them. Kind of a shame to see them all smashed in. Luckily all the MR kits looked untouched ;) anyway, just get another grill from the wreckers and cut out the silver from it and replace it. Would look epic.
 
What you have to remember is alot of mirage / lancers have different front bumpers that dont match what that year model came out with, because a lot have been smashed in the front etc.
Also another thing 2000model MR changed was the climate control surround went from black plastic to carbon fibre looking plastic.
