    Finally test drove a new CX-5, and was disappointed...

    Well, after quite a bit of internet research I had all but decided that a new CX-5 Signature was going to replace my 2011 Outback. Until I test drove one about an hour ago. Everything about the ride was fine, but I really needed the front seat to go back another inch or two. The ride was only...

    Does I-ActivSense mess with your radar detector?

    Just wondering if the activsense radar used in the new Mazdas will affect the ability to use a radar detector? I know that there are some false detections when surrounding vehicles use it even though they are supposed to use a different frequency. But, does your own cars use of radar also...

    Does the TPMS alert say which tire is low?

    On the newer CX-5s, does the low tire pressure alert say which tire is low? On my 2011 Subaru, it's just one light and then I have to figure out which tire is low. On my wife's 2017 Hyundai Elantra, the alert says which tire, and even gives the actual tire pressure at each individual tire which...

    2017~2024 CX-5 top speed?

    In their Dec 2018 review, Car and Driver reported the top speed of the CX-5 turbo was 130 mph. That seems a bit high, but Im sure it was on a closed track. Has anyone taken theirs up that far? How fast have you gone with your turbo CX-5, and how did it handle? Thanks.

    2017~2024 How bright are your 2018/2019 headlights?

    With some manufacturers seeming to give up functionality in favor of appearance, Im wondering how the new CX-5 headlights perform at night? From looking at vehicles on the road during the day, they look awfully small. Do they put out adequate light at night on unlit roads? How well do the...

    How fast does your CX5 go and how does it handle?

    For those of you with 2018 & 2019 CX-5s, how does it handle triple digit speeds? About 15 miles of my daily commute is usually spent in the 85-95 mph range with my 2011 Outback. Im wondering how a 2019/2020 CX-5 turbo would be at that speed. Would the new turbo be comfortable bumping it up to...

    Anyone cross shop the CX-5 with a Subaru Outback?

    Hey all, I have a 2011 Outback 2.5i Limited with 190k miles. I bought it new, and plan to replace it with a 2019/2020 vehicle. Right now Im thinking another Outback or a CX-5 Signature model. I have no Mazda experience and was wondering if anyone has compared them yet. Thanks.
