I just bough ta new Cx-5 GT and while I love the overall feel and drive of the car there are some things I find were not very well thought out.
1. No power lift gate option when very other competitor seems to have one.
2. Android auto has been mentioned before here and I really hope they can update this.
3. Minor complaint but rear vents anyone?
4. The remote starter they gave me was locally installed, not the official Mazda one which I suppose saved me a few hundred. But here's what gets me, to prevent theft Mazda decided it was a good idea to have the car turn off if any of the doors are opened after remote start is used...what?!? So you basically have to start the car twice if you use the remote start. In the winter if you want to warm your car up and then open the car to retrieve an windshield scraper your car turns off. Anyone else get this feature and thought it was dumb?
I guess I am venting but it's useful stuff to consider if you are thinking about buying. Great car but when you buy a top trim level these kinds of things just leave you scratching your head.
