Hey somebody flipped your pics where it looks like right hand drive, lol. Nice leather. Hmmmm, is that a personalized plate? Looks like it says pu$$y grand prix, lol. Does one get to "wear" the trophy? lol. Hope so. What all color options did y'all get? Did it come with the spare tire sub? Do you get the oem footwell lighting that comes on with dome when opening the doors? Bet lots of the sedan guys would love those 4 lug rr discs(if they haven't done 5 lug swap). Thanks for the pics but now we're gonna need shots of the bikinis at the beach and maybe some cool local flavor town shots or the countryside. Wii B pic hoes upinheeya.

LOL!
Color options : White(duh!), black; candy-apple red; burgundy/metallic-maroon; dark blue; light powder-blue; and - my personal favourite - a metallic green (almost like a lime-green?). If i can find a pic of one, i'll post it. I'ts VERY rare!
Yes to the spare tyre sub, we did. No footwell lighting (sounds cool!), only the standard dome light.
And all of the etude range came out with 4 lug wheels. All hatches and sedans, right accross the range.
The mazda 3 was the first to have the 5 lug wheel.

Few different color options there. We have black, silver, red, medium blue, dark blue, yellow & white.....don't think I missed any. The footwell thing I scored is JDM, we didn't get it here. Had to install it backwards since JDM is rt hand drive, lol. I like Mazda options. Also have done Tribute washer nozzles for fan spray vs. streams, MP3 splitter, MSP valve cover/eng cover, MSP door sills, MSP grill emblem on glove box cover, Mazda 6 wagon rear wiper, MPV adjustable int wiper stalk, JDM tails(like yours), 323F hatch badge & probably a couple other ones I'm forgetting at the moment.
Show us your SA goddesses!
How many are there actually? I would think you probably have both the EDM ones (?) I think there actually are 4, I think the 99-00 have a bit different color than the 01-03's but I haven't bothered much checking that out.
I think the best way to get that setup is to talk to some junkyards in Europe and have it shipped over. It's rare though, I think it only came with the 03 DITD models over here.
Sound like Europe, here out top model was the 323F Sportage 2.0 It has an extra display under the RPM gauge that I think is a driver information system and a half-ass climatronic system. No turbo options (except for diesel engines, and I have never seen the sportive interior or 5-lug wheels on the diesel 323's)
Hi and Welcome to the forums, your car looks pretty well kept. Have fun tuning it when the time comes!

Tribute washer nozzles for fan spray vs. streams-No pics of this but look same as others.
MP3 splitter
MSP valve cover/eng cover
MSP door sills-no pic of these, basically charcoal gray with polished aluminum strip with mazdaspeed in white letters
MSP grill emblem on glove box cover-No pic of that but have one with MP5 badge. MS grill emblem = black letters trimmed in silver
Mazda 6 wagon rear wiper, JDM tails, 323F hatch badge
MPV adjustable int wiper stalk-no good pic of this
JDM Footlamp kit - not my pic. Lights are amber like dash, redder than this pic. Did my dome light to match footlamps/gauges

Same...perhaps we could send him USDM parts in exchange for Etude badges. lol
And those are some very interesting color choices. The candy apple red and metallic green sound very nice.
