I love the interior and exterior of the car. It seems like thought was put into this.
I have 2 concerns.
1) Engine noise: The CX-5 does not give you a luxury feel at all. The start up is noisy and the noise still seems to be there even after going a mile. I test drove the grand touring, I love the leather and everything that comes with it, but I am disappointed by the cheap car feel to driving it. Dont others feel this way?
2) Driving torque: When I had to accelerate from 40mph to a highway 65mph it seemed like it did take a lot of effort, granted, I am used to driving my honda accord and you cant really compare the two, But still, I feel this will limit me on how I drive on the highway.
Fuel gauge had one dot over the 1/2 way mark, with 15 gal tank, leaving two for reserve, lets say that is 7.5 gals left in the tank, The range showed 191 miles, which translates to about 25mpg, which is pretty good.
Do others share the same concerns? I am still on the fence, about buying this, because of the noise. It is very irritating, when you are talking on the phone and you have to repeat yourself, each time because there is so much noise.
Just curious what others think.
