No, Dexter is right. Too many people in this MAzdaspeed section think they can post whatever they want where ever they want. There are sections in this forum for a reason.
There is a For sale Section, there is a Off topic Section, and 90% of people here with Mazdaspeeds can't figure this out. Look at how many srt f'n 4 and Spec fn V threads have been started here when they belong in the off topic section. It's like the logic is, "I have a Mazdaspeed so I must post every random thought in the Mazdaspeed section".
geesh
Anyways, Most insurance companies around here go by VIN. MAtter of fact when I called on mine, they didn't care what name it was ( MAzdaspeed who what?) they wanted the VIN. My MP3 did cost more then the ES. I originally had it insured as an ES, but they ran the Vin and it went up near 80 bucks Canadian.
I had to pay a difference of 17 bucks for the mp3 to the Speed. I still think that's wrong too, seems way to low.
The 2003.5 are a limited run, but there are way more of them. They have blue/silver coming out ( 500 each I think?), then there's the yellow and titanium which there are what 2000 of ( I really can't remember the numbers now ) but basically, there are more 2003.5's then there were of the 2003's, but not much. They are still limited though, and it being the last year of the protege's production, rest assured, there's not going to be any more. Think of it this way too, the 2003.5's are the only ones with that spoiler, and front lip etc etc. The 2003's look the same as the MP3's so to the average joe, there's a lot of them around too.
The production #'s are listed here over and over. Just search
