    Do you want your cx5 to be better?

    I'll admit that the new RAV4 is an extremely appealing vehicle. I came from a 2010 RAV4 and for my price range in CPO vehicles, the '15 CX5 was a far more appealing buy than an equivalent '15 RAV4. I'm not going to be in the market for another car until I drive the CX5 into the ground, but if I...

    Bought a 2016 cx5 touring CPO - Already have an issue

    That and the CPO checklists are usually pretty sad. Take a look at Mazda's. A lot of them are basically, "Look at part in question. Is it there? Is it on fire? No? Pass." My CPO '15 CX5 had horrendous balance issues off the bat. Was not covered by warranty. Paid the dealership $80 to balance...

    My cx5 impressed me

    I'll look into the Connies- thanks for the tip! What do you mean side to side? The Altimaxes do look like the are well rated for snow on Tirerack (for an all season) and are certainly priced right, so I'll do my homework on those too. Do you feel like they slip/lose contact? That's more or...

    My cx5 impressed me

    Interesting - I really liked them while I had them on my RAV4, but admittedly I barely got 5k miles on them before my car got totaled. Never had the chance to see how they held up long term. Otherwise I'm looking at Toyo Celsius - want something that will be handle the snow a little better than...

    My cx5 impressed me

    Do you have the 19" GT wheels? If so, what size WRG3s did you go with? I had WRG3s on my Gen 3 RAV4 before it got totaled and replaced with my '15 GT CX5. Looking to replace the OEMs (utter garbage) with some all weathers before it starts snowing consistently out here.

    Only OEM windshield for now.

    The OEM glass on my '15 GT got cracked a few weeks ago by the world's tiniest pebble (honestly don't think it would have chipped any other glass...). Comprehensive insurance plan thru Allstate got Safelite to replace it with a Fuyao aftermarket windshield, $50, replaced in my garage. Pretty...

    CX-5 Tire Fitments

    So, idiot question here... per the OP's chart, am I correct in understanding that I would be OK to run Toyo Celsiuses in 245/50R19 105V on my OEM 19" wheels ('15 GT)?

    Mazda caught in emissions cheating scandal

    Listen, if there's even a remote chance that I'll get a free upgrade like VW's buyback program, I'm quite happy to be outraged too.

    12,208 CX-5 Sales in USA for July.

    When I bought my CPO CX5 in July, the salesman said they couldn't sell the FWD CX5s at all. They bought 3 by mistake - said they've sat on the lot without so much as a test drive in 4m. Also said fired the associate who bought them, lol

    CX-5 Beauty Shot Thread

    2015 2.5L AWD CX5 GT. Picked it up CPO (former leaser) on the 4th. Put my first ding on it when I popped a curb I couldn't see in the rain... it's small and just on the underside of the black plastic runner under the front bumper, but I know it's there... Otherwise, loving it so far :D
