2005 Mazda 3s are up on Mazda.ca

[AfterBurner]

The new carbon gray colour is there and there does not appear to be any price difference yet. There appears to be less features although I am not completely sure of this.

i think they are adding things ad-hoc.. b/c leathers aren\'t even an option on the sport GT (under features & specs.. the borrom of the specs part) and now that i look back at it it still says 2004.. hmm..

edit: and the carbon gray isn\'t available on the hatch???? hmm sedan only it looks like..

No more 2.3 emblems on the 2005 models. Notice in the 2005 brochure all the 2.3 emblems on the pictures are gone. Here are the new colors for the 2005:

SEDAN:
Carbon Grey Mica

Damn, I thought the winning blue would look hideous on the sedan but it doesn\'t look half bad.... The indigo actually looks more blue (and less purple) in the pic than it actually does on the car, unless they\'ve changed the colour a bit.

I\'m sure you can ask your dealership for them (they were dealer installed anyways).

Can you be more specific about the features. I went to the site but could not find any difference.

I don’t think the colours on the websites can be replicated to what the true colour is. Mine is Indigo Blue, like of looks purple when the sun goes down, but it is really darker than what is display on the net. See my picture here, taken an hour before the sun hit the top of the trees.

My Sport GT didn\'t come with the 2.3 emblems. When I went back tot he dealer for my first service they put them on. When I asked why they didn\'t come with the car when I picked it up, they said that thy only put them on when requested. Funny thing is they never really mention that when you buy the car. But they don\'t charge you for them either.....so make sure you don\'t pay for them.

it\'s all about cost cutting..

even each emblem.. 10 bux or so.. when they make 300 000 cars.. it adds up

[bluntman]

I think I\'ll auction off my emblems on eBay. :D

[Xenon]

in those pics, the indigo and Winning blue look like the same colour, just one is in sunlight and the other is in a darker light.... because i can honestly say that my Mica paint changes that dramatically in different light conditions.
