I was in the dealership today buying my protege 5 off of the lease, when one of the guys who I was talking to about the mazdaspeed (2003 orange) came up and told me what jst came off the truck..and a brand new, still with the plastic on everything 2003.5 mazdaspeed protege, I would have to say it was pretty nice, I think I would honestly prefer a lighter silver myself, and that wouldn't be my first choice in mazdaspeed colour, but it was very nice none the less. I also noticed that the gauges, the dials themselves are silver instead of black, its not like this in the 2003, so I guess it is another one of the little changed for the 2003.5, anywayz, jst thought u guys should know
