BL & BK Mazda3 differences

[greyseason]

Hello all, So as ive been looking around for parts and whatnot, and found out that the Mazda 3 came in two platforms, BL & BK. Well I was getting very confused with the two platforms. I tried looking it up, and at first thought the BK was the non- speed model, and the BL was the same as a speed3.

Now correct me if I'm wrong, but I think Ive figured it out.

BK Mazda3 - 2004-2009 Mazda 3
BL Mazda3 - 2010+ Mazda 3

Knowing this can sometimes make it easier when looking for non USDM markets for parts, as well as make it easier for the new members who might get confused with the short-forms.

Please feel free to add anything, or if I'm completely wrong with let me know!
