FlipandFunk said:"With 244 horsepower at 5000 rpm, the CX-7 AWD Sport hauled its 3920 pounds to 60 mph in 7.9 seconds and on through the quarter-mile in 16.1 seconds at 87 mph. Those are perfectly respectable numbers, but there are some quicker tall wagons out there, such as the Toyota RAV4 (6.3 seconds to 60 mph) and Subaru Forester 2.5XT (5.9). Neither of those can match the CX-7s 0.84-g skidpad figure (Subaru, 0.75; Toyota, 0.79), though. Consider also that we averaged 14 mpg during testing, well below the EPAs findings of 18/24 mpg." - Car and Driver
toucci said:are you guys who get bad mileage staying out of boost? that's usually essential for getting good mileage on a turbo car, but the CX-7 would probably be too slow if you never boosted.
cruzdreamer said:Nice Protege5....my last car before my RX 8 was the 5 and red just like yours...like what you have done to it! I am a female and when you say "boosted" do you just me mean get it to the point where the turbo kicks in? Is that around 2500 RPM's? Sorry I sound so nieve. Thanks!

Thanks for the info...I appreiate it.Lord_Zath said:boosting means turbo is kicking in aka spooling up.
So staying out of boost means keeping the rpm's and throttle low so the turbo doesn't start spooling up.

Z_Monzter said:(enguard) Right, I should have bought a Protege, perhaps yours right!!!
That's besides the point, the point is that CX-7 is advertized by Mazda to run 18-20 miles a gallon not 13.
Either way, this is getting old, notting to see here people, lets move on to something else. nate0123 is right, suck it up and drive on.
Point blank: Enjoy your new ride!!! And don't forget to drive it like you stole it!
