Any differences between 02 and 03?

Hey guys,

I was sitting in an '03 Max tonight and looking around. I thought the inside was identical to my '02 until I noticed that the window/lock buttons on the doors are all of a different design than mine. I was surprised because I didn't think Nissan had made any changes to the car for 2003. I realize this is an insignificant change, but it got me wondering what other differences there were. I didn't have time to look around at the rest of the vehicle, so I just thought I'd ask on here. What are all the differences between 2002 and 2003 Maximas?

What I can think of off the top of my head:

-One-color interior instead of two tone
-Availability of the Titanium edition
-Smoked out some of the bugs (dim SES light, Tranverse link recall, VTC issue)
-GLE got side impact airbags standard I think

I don't think there's that much more I'm forgetting.

Mine is 2 color and it's a 2003.....I think you are wrong about that one.

The bugs (most of them compared to the 2002) have been fixed including the MAF.....

I was aware of the crank sensor recall but nothing about the VTC itself.
