03=first year, more bugs
04=2nd year, less bugs

Other than that, pretty identical. Tire feathering, axle clicks, window problems, some tranny issues seem to be more evident in the 03, 04 just a less chance with these issues.

first year cars seem to be the worst, and the manufacturer just fixes the issues upon each year.

I think the '04's had those knee pads on the center console too.

Actually the changes are fairly numerous. Whole new auto tranny on 04 Touring, slightly different front suspension, upgraded ABS, etc.
Knee pads and extra power sockets as well
