What are the differences from the '04 to the '05?
I just bought a brand new Mazda 3 sedan
Specs:
Titanium Gray
2.3 L engine
Sports package with 17" wheels
HID headlights
Tire Pressure Monitoring System
Leather interior (comes with sports I think)
ABS and side curtain air bags

Is there going to be a turbo kit available for my car, or is there one that is already compatible?

Besides clear tail lights i do not c any visible difference between the 04 and 05, I do have an 05 with 600 miles on it.

for the 04 there was clear taillights too

Jeffro426

Yup, pretty sure my 04s are clear!!

I'm pretty the sure the clear lights are an option. That looks exactley like my 3. I have had my 3 for like 9 days and have put over 700 miles on it...lol.

Jeffro426

Clear lights are standard on the S...i dont think they came on the I though.

PolishDriver77

ahhh, thanx for clearing the tailight dilema. But then is there anything different?

other than some exterior colors getting discontinued, the 2005 has a satellite radio ready headunit. i think that's it for changes.

LOL is that a temporary plate? Are u not suppose to put them in the rear window?

Referring to the pic above

Jeffro426

Each state has a different requirement..colorado has you put them where the licence plate would normally be and yes it was temporary.

PolishDriver77
