    Goodbye CX-5 Sport. Hello Forester XT.

    Nope. Originally purchased at Piazza Mazda in West Chester but took it for service at North Penn.

    Goodbye CX-5 Sport. Hello Forester XT.

    CX-5 GTR would've been the perfect car for me if it had slightly more rear passenger space, slightly cheaper, and had a panoramic sunroof (not asking for much here Mazda!).

    Goodbye CX-5 Sport. Hello Forester XT.

    Op here. After about a month of having my XT, I have no complaints about the CVT. I have enjoyed driving the XT, with the exception of driving on very curvy roads. My CX-5 used to carve these roads up in the past with no problem, but in my XT, I really have to take it slow and drive cautiously...

    Goodbye CX-5 Sport. Hello Forester XT.

    Ha, well, it looks exactly like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bmS0cOuihf8 Yeah, i am worried about carbon buildup and it already has 40k miles for a 2017 model. I ended up purchasing an extended bumper-to-bumper warranty for 7 yrs/100k miles to be on the safe side. Will miss you forum...

    Goodbye CX-5 Sport. Hello Forester XT.

    After almost three years, I finally traded in my 2016.5 CX-5 Sport AWD for a CPO 2017 Subaru Forester 2.0XT Touring. The CX-5 was a solid, reliable family car that never gave me any problems for 24,000 miles. I enjoyed driving it, but always yearned for more power, and always regretted not...

    Help Me Decide: CX-5 vs. CR-V

    Because Motor Trend is one of the most influential automotive publications? I agree that people should just buy what they like though. For some of us, including myself, what we bought may have resulted in some regret, but articles like this will influence potential buyers in a substantial way.

    2016 CX5 better "driving machine" over 2017

    Take as long as you can. Seems like the comfortability of the seat is very important to you, as well as personal "feel." Just spend lots of time in each one.

    Help Me Decide: CX-5 vs. CR-V

    Just finished reading. The review highlights everything that a lot of us have been saying, much to the dismay of current '17 CX-5 owners. One thing I didn't know about was the better brakes in the Honda; and I do appreciate the review highlighting how much more space the CR-V has...

    Help me decide: 2017 CX5 or 2017 Mazda3 hatch?

    Price?! Also should consider whether you want AWD and the ground clearance. Honestly though, the Mazda3 should suit you just fine and space shouldn't be an issue. I feel like the only benefit in space from the CX-5 is if you need to load bulky, tall items. Get the CX-5 if you like the...

    2016 CX5 better "driving machine" over 2017

    Ok, getting back on topic. I just want the 2.5T and would consider upgrading when the time comes. I understand the ride softening, sound deadening, etc. to appeal to more buyers, and I'm okay with that. But if no 2.5T, I'm just going to start modding my 16.5, and buy a sedan (Lexus GS F?!) when...
