    Did anyone cross-shop CX-5 with the new Tiguan?

    I did. Test drive them both and more than once if possible to get a real feel of where you are most comfortable with. As mentioned by others, one issue might be the engine lack of power in the Tiguan. The virtual cockpit was one or the main features I liked from the Tiguan but at the end, I...

    What did you pay for your CX-5?

    Picked the exact same model with PP and same color. In the San Antonio area, I paid $30,150 plus Registration, Doc Fee & Tax. My Doc Fee was slightly above $200 and concluded TTL and 2 year Vehicle registration

    A year later, still averaging 20 MPG on 2018 GT AWD Mazda CX-5. Is that normal?

    So you know how hot can it get driving the summer around here :) I didn*t knew gas was formulated differently on the summer and makes sense now why gas prices always increase just before and during the summer

    Thanks Brillo, that is helpful information. Will look more closely to the MPG average after my 1st or second oil change

    A year later, still averaging 20 MPG on 2018 GT AWD Mazda CX-5. Is that normal?

    I*ve had the car for almost four weeks now and getting 28.8 mpg average. Lowest has been 26.1 city and highest 32.2 combined after 900 miles with the 2.5L CX-5 GT I was expecting there would be a break in period and the MPG to vary later on but based on some comments, I see that might not be...

    What did you pay for your CX-5?

    Exactly the reason I think you are being offered a good deal. Just look for *hidden or mandatory* fees that can add $600-$1800 or more to the vehicle. Let us know if you decide to pull the trigger and what you finally paid

    New Motor Trend article comparing CX-5, RAV-4, CR-v, etc.

    It is a thorough article and spot on IMO. It matches most of what I could find online while doing research on other articles and on YouTube. I almost pulled the trigger on a 2019 CRV Touring and would have been ok with my decision but went for my first Mazda and do not regret it one bit so far...

    What did you pay for your CX-5?

    That would have been great but that was not the OTD price. It was $30,150 before TTL & TAX I was clear since my first communication with the dealership I was not willing to pay or even discuss any doc fees, dealer add on items, GAP Insurance from them, (got GAP insurance through my own...

    Saint's Build Thread

    I know exactly what you are taking about. That slim piece cant be reinstalled. At least not in the 2019 models. Recommend you go to etrailer.com and find the trailer hitch for a Mazda CX-5 where they mention that piece can not be put back.

    What did you pay for your CX-5?

    IMO, that is a good deal! I paid $30,150 for mine and the only difference is it has the Soul Red Crystal Metallic Color which is an additional $595

    2019 Floor Mats?

    Just installed the same ones on my 2019. First, got them on eBay but made the mistake of not looking into the year model and realized after installing them the fit was not exact si had to return them. Then I called 3D MAXpider and asked for the 2019 model item number and ordered them from...

    2019 Cooled seats

    All physics apart, YES they work great. It was one of the must have things on my check list when researching for cars before getting my CX-5. I will be using the cooling seats for several months during the summer here in south Texas.

    2017~2024 The truth about Mazdas according to Scotty

    I checked Autogefhl and its definitely more objective. At the end of the day, it is not Scottys complete fault just for making videos trying to give advice even if he is not an expert in every matter he talks about. Most people watch a video, believe what they want, and dont make an effort to...
