[aMaff]

In a 5 speed, the shifter knob on the 2002 is different than the 2002.5..

ok, still wouldn't know, I've only really paid attention to mine...

okay so explain this .. there is a protege 5 in town and i have no clue what year it is .. it has some really cool looking pin striping, laser blue, no roof racks or caps but it has like striping :O.. its an autostick or automanual whatever you wanna call it.. it has the straight 5 spoke rims.. now here is the kicker(s) Color MATCHED LEATHER??? AND 2 FRIGGIN SUNROOFS!.. now is this stock or some after market work done.. and the local shops around here couldnt make sunroofs that look that stock so im confizzled?!?

color matched leather seats might have been something the owner added (like a mod)?? that would be my guess..

Well, unless it is an aftermarket paint job, Laser Blue was only available in '03 and '03.5; it was the only color that was added after the P5 debuted. I'd guess that it is a '03.5 w/ aftermarket leather and 2nd moonroof. I'd love to see a pic of it out of curiosity.

Next time i see it out ill snap a shot and talk to the owners but i think they are older people ... and if the leather and roofs are aftermarket.. the place did an excellent job.. and if they did get a place to do it.. i think i am going to be getting the number ..

Oh and if my memory serves me correctly it doesnt have sidemarkers.... and it has some really cool looking pin striping done to it.. makes me jealous

I think the fall 2002 launch of the 2003 model makes it a 2002.5. Hence I would say 2002.5=2003. For 2003.5, there is a plastic/foam cover between the spare tire and the rug. I think the sub was still an option for 03.5
