I get 37.2 on my manual 2.0..you should've gotten a 14 MT for better MPG. Anything below 22 I'd rather have a tacoma/sequoia overlander. I wouldn't buy a turbo car.

Remeber when that recall came around saying caliper pins needed regreasing because there wasn't enough lube? I was doing my brakes and saw the hack job they did. Mixed the yellow grease from mazda with some kind of black grease..bracket was stuck solid. Grease was thick, no contaminants..just...

I would leave some snacks in the car in case it gets hungry. I leave my car for weeks undriven sometimes months.. battery bwas fine. The only issue is age of battery..5 years.

New car.. This one needs new brakes, tires, battery, wipers, oil change.

doctavic, I just bought some for my sport in MASS they were 19 inchers with brand new tires. I wonder if we were looking at the same set lol

If there was a kit I think people would support a group buy, or maybe instructions?

pix of said wife or it didn't happen!

The only problem I have is that there's a sunroof missing/mirror shake. I'm one 1.5 years into ownership..otherwise I have none of the problems you listed.

Why not just do a 2.5 engine swap? By the way, I own a 2.0 MT..whenever I need some power...a downshift?

after driving my girlfriend's lexus...i ran back to my stick shift cx-5 telling her I'll never do it again. Get some katzkins with heated seats, nav unit, install heated mirrors from the write up, install some morimoto HID's. That said, I think it sucks that I don't have an arm-rest in the...

Pointing it out for cross shoppers, I have a stick fwd cx5.

I just looked at the new renegade, comes with superior awd in the highest package WITH a manual transmission. This is all but unheard of except for maybe no one! But the car looks a little funky.

Honestly I have nothing but good memories about my maximas..1990, 1995, 1995, 1998..I drove those cars hard. Easy as pie maintenance, came packed with "luxury" features of the day and great ride when dropped. But then with the last 4D sports sedan in 2002-2003 the maximas went down the route of...

I've done donuts in my infiniti, wrx, and cx5. The most fun was in the g with all the nannies off, subaru just felt planted, and cx5 (mine is 2wd) doesn't roll that much, but I also found it's not as fun as the infiniti for donuts. I'm 31, and anyone who tells me it's a stupid thing to do, or...

Webasto has bigger than oem sunroof if I'm not mistaken, and I think I saw a honda fit or the scion on google image search with the exact sunroof your just described. Then I read it was discontinued..I'd worry about the amount of roof supports that would be cut in order for that to work..no one...
