Only had my CX-5 for a few weeks but I've been putting miles on it and enjoying every minute.
So, my thoughts on the car so far:
What's great:
So-So
Bose stereo. It's good, but not amazing. Honestly, I wasn't expecting it to be but I find that it is more than capable.
Could be better:
brakes: They don't quite have the bite I would like the to have and feel a little soft under decent braking. Not spongy but a little more play to them than I'd really like.
So, my thoughts on the car so far:
What's great:
- The HUD is probably the best feature on this car so far. The clarity of it is exceptional and I find that I hardly ever look down at the gauge cluster.
- Fuel mileage has been great so far with mostly highway and some city driving. Fill ups so far have been: 28.27 mpg, 26.72 mpg, and 26.79 mpg.
- Handling and steering feel are excellent in this car. Honestly, an upgrade from the very heavy feel of my BMW X3.
- I haven't really opened the car up as I was still breaking it in but you can feel the torque down low and it's nice to know the power is there if needed.
- Parchment and Machine Gray is definitely a great color combination. (I might be a little biased on that one)
