2003.5 protege5 features?
So...
I will be getting a new protege5 in the next few weeks (its en route to the dealer). I am assuming it is a 2003.5 model, as the dealer told me it included a subwoofer, which I think is a new standard feature. I can't find any information around the internet regarding this new update. Does anyone have any information about the 2003.5 model? (ie - what's different?) also, can I tell using the VIN that it is indeed a 2003.5 version?
Also, how big is said subwoofer? Does it take up a lot of trunk room?
thanks,
I'm really looking forward to getting my new p5.

Huh? a subwoofer???? i think you are mistaking it for the MSP not the P5, cause the P5 never ever came with a sub, unless the dealer puts it in for a fee or something like that, and btw, im not so sure about the 2003.5 models cause next year the P5 will be replaced with a newer model....

...well, I'm pretty sure I'm not getting the 6 disc CD player. The assumption I am operating under is that the subwoofer is now standard and the roof rack is now a $200 option. i'll hafta track down those pics of the subwoofer.

wow, I'd never heard about the sub in the 2003.5. Makes me wish I'd waited a couple more months to get one. They didn't offer an adjustable intermediate wiper speed did they?

huh? subwoofer? i got the 2003 protege5 about 3 weeks ago and there's no fancy speakers.
you have 4 speakers and 2 tweeters. the 2003 has new alloy wheels ,different looking headlights, different cupholders, a leather wrapped shifter and some different interior decorations but that's all.
the sound is ok but there's not too much base. i really dont mind as all the stuff i listen to is either techno or dance.

There is post with a pic of the sub somewhere at www.protege5.com , I looked for it but I couldn't find it, perhaps you can give it a try or ask there.
