Not a fan of the gold wheel but a set of gray wheels would look good.




From the article:
Mazda makes the nicest looking lineup of cars out of all the major Japanese automakers. But if you exclude the MX-5 and RX-8 track people, all the other owners are serious and sober, so there aren't that many tuning projects available. A few Japanese companies have tried to tune the new CX-5 and Mazda6, but those kits are not available anywhere else in the world.

Looks decent. Too bad they're turd Vossen. Never understood the hype with that brand.
 
not a huge fan of the wheels or the front lip, but the rest is very clean.
rolling pics are the best

It's still a 3400 lb SUV with a 4 cylinder, which handles really well, but it will never be as good as a true sports car.
 
CX-5 manual pg. 2-42

Do not modify the suspension:

Modifying the vehicle suspension is dangerous. If the vehicle's height or the
suspension is modified, the vehicle will be unable to accurately detect a collision or
roll-over accident resulting in incorrect or unexpected air bag deployment and the
possibility of serious injuries

Im pretty sure that car wasn't modified to be a sports car. I know plenty of car culture clubs that build a car just for looks.
You don't bag and drop a car to go to the circuit track.

That is valid for anything in this life. You never brake the rule?

It's a very nice car.
