I would like to know if any one has any info on the 2003 2.0L?
Are there going to be any major changes over the 2002?
should I wait for the '03 2.0L or is a dealers left over 2002 stock
just as good?

 

Since the 2003 Protege is a "lame duck" model that is being replaced in 2004, I seriously doubt that Mazda will change anything other than minor trim items, optional equipment combinations and paint colors. Carmakers rarely make significant changes in the last year of a model's production.
