Congrats!
Thanks! Buyback is complete and everything with that has been taken care of so now I can focus on getting the CX-5.
Woot woot!
Let us know how it goes!

I'm going to pick up my 2016.5 CX-5 Touring AWD today! Blue reflex mica, black interior with cargo cover. Price (without taxes and fees and including $1,000 incentive) $25,114. With taxes and fees: $27,454 (MSRP was $27,470), but I have a down payment so I'm not financing that much. Not a great deal (a bit under 8.5%), but not terrible. The NY dealers were not willing to come down much. I'm finally a part of the Mazda group!
Thank you!Better price than mine was by a bit.
Congratulations and welcome to the Mazda club!
Congrats! Nice choice on the blue. I don't see many of those.
Congratulations. You have the same model as mine minus moon roof and bose audio. I have FWD though.
Good luck. In L.A., I could barely get 10% off a 2016.5. There are A LOT of unsold 2016s out this way; not sure if they'll be dealing much on the 17s. Have to wait and see.
Yeah, I've been calling around over the last few days, and all of the dealers have a whole lot of 16.5's left. Even with a *really* good deal on the outgoing model, it's hard not to want to wait and see how the 17 compares.
Hello, everybody.
Im new in the forum. I live in Costa Rica, and here cars are really expensive. Just THE importation tax is around 54% in car value. Mazda in Costa Rica go full equipment on any version, leather seats and all the technology; they dont bring the regular seats, just leather, but they offer two versions, 4X4 2.5 and 4x2 2.0.
I was thinking to buy the CX-5 2016.5, regular price here is around $41.500, but then I look the new CX-5 and I really like it, the thing is I really dont know what to do, if I should wait on new or to take a great deal they are giving me because the 2016.5 is going on sale here, and they give me a good deal, I make a reservation for $37.000, thats around 10% discount.
Looking the MSRP in the US, around and considering they dont bring the basic version (I am ok with 2.0 engine) I think it will cost around $43.000 (that's the worst scenario, it can be less) the question here is. Is the new 2017 CX-5 worth $6000 more compared to the 2016.5.
I really dont want to spend +$40.000 on a car right now, but I can do it if its worth it.
Thank you for your replys.
Haelz, first of all I really love Joel Campbell - what a player superb.
You need to compare the spec sheets in costa rica - but in USA the 17 is offering some more things - rear heated seats / rear AC vents / Heated steering wheels / Power car seat with memory / power passengers seat.
Some of these are not available in 16.5 Another thing is - it will ride a bit quieter since Mazda has done a lot of work in reducing cabin noise.
Downside of 17 is low cargo volume - it is lower by 10% or so.
Looks are very different - i used to like 17 looks but now - not so much. It looks so sleek in the front but when you look at the whole car - the rest looks too fat. Disproportionate - the 16.5 actually looks very handsome to me.
So based on what I said - if there is no risk of all 16.5s being sold - WAIT ! and test drive both.
