    Signature vs Grand Touring Reserve / Incentives

    I like the brown leather better than the parchment or black. They could have made it more like the CX-9 Signature leather but I like both.

    Swirl marks on new CX5

    Purchased my Black Signature up on Nov 30th. There was snow and slush on the ground when we test drove it. Dealer cleaned it:( The next morning the sun was hitting at the right angle and can see all the swirl marks. Called the dealer and he got the car in with a detailer. All good after that...

    Question for turbo owners: what octane do you use?

    For now my wife is under strict orders to use 92(the highest available in my region). Over time we may switch to 87 or 89. She drives easy and I drive for fun😁

    2019 GT-R Engine Performance Question

    I will add if you are comparing to BMW's skip the GT-R and get the Signature.

    2019 GT-R Engine Performance Question

    For a year we looked and test drive many cars to replace my wife's daily. Audi, new and used BMW X3 and X5, Forester 2XT, Rav, sveral others and of course the CX5 NA and CX9 turbo. None were satifactory. They were either to big, too slow or numb handling. Enter the CX-5 Turbo. Test drove the...

    Smelling Windshield Wiper Fluid

    It does contain alcohol but adding another quart will make the concentration of alcohol too strong.

    Oil Usage

    I think GM's stance on oil consumption for the Duramax engines is 1 quart every 1000 miles is acceptable...I think that's BS. I never had a vehicle that used more than a quart in 5K miles even on high performance engines.

    What kind of real world mpg are owners getting?

    Exactly. To new to get real world numbers plus it's winter and that can scew thr numbers in colder climate's due to more warm up time. Sample data on this page is just too small for the CX-5 turbo right now.

    2.5 Turbo - Fuel oil dilution?

    There's a post on the CX-9 forum that had they results from oil analysis done by Blackstone Labs. Fuel in oil was less than 25% of normally acceptable levels. That one report indicates the 2.5T doesn't have a fuel dissolution problem. Because they engine was out for 3 years and no real issues...

    Prices paid for 2019 CX5

    Your deal was a good one. Your approximations regarding S & E plans are very close. Right now if people do their homework like you did they can get the S Plan pricing on the '19 turbo models. In a year everyone will be able to get a left over '19 Turbo at E plan pricing and this thread will be...

    Prices paid for 2019 CX5

    So you agree that comparing pricing on left over models and brand new models isn't there same. Any body should be able to get S Plan pricing on a 'left over' models and possibly E Plan pricing on left overs. Not so easily done on a 2019. So this thread specifically addressing 2029 has some...

    Prices paid for 2019 CX5

    Agree again. The deal I got in a Signature CX-5 turbo in Nov...a new and highly anticipated model/trim in no way should be compare to outgoing 2018 models, and to an extent 2019 non-turbo models. This will be a thread that will fade as more turbos hit the streets and time goes on, but for now...
