the 03 had turn signals on the fenders where the 02 didn't. the 03.5 model had no option of roof racks where the other models just had roof racks stock. in 02.5, there was a baffle added to the roofracks to make them a little quieter. the 02 had flip-up cupholders, where the 02.5 and up had solid cupholders with no flip lids. there was no leather option for 2002 where there was one from 02.5 and up. 02.5 had a tiptronic option and tweeters in the door panels behind the mirrors. the rims were changed in 02.5 also. the 03 had an option for a subwoofer that mounted over the spare tire. the manual 02 and manual 02.5 shift ***** were different also.

02 had white gauges where 02.5 and up had silver. laser blue was added in 03. midnight blue was discontinued in 03.5

these are just model differences for american models and not canadian. i may have missed something
