Great SUV
We have had this car since 2012 and it has been great! It is just the right size for getting around town but with lots of space. AWD gets through the snow without a problem. As many, had to replace the tires at 27,0000 miles.
Love it!
After being opened minded while shopping around at all the different makes once I saw the CX5 I knew right away this was the car for me. The Rouge didn't have enough front passenger leg room, the Honda CRV didn't come close to matching the interior design and I wouldn't even consider the Rav4.

Fun To Drive!
My CX-5 has been very reliable and it's a fun car to drive. It feels more like driving a smaller, more nimble vehicle than an SUV. I got a great deal on mine ($17,800 with 23,000 miles on it in October, 2016- Grand Touring Model) so from a value standpoint I couldn't be happier!

Update to driver from Salt Lake City
After 2,600 miles everything is going great. The performance is better after the 2,000 mile mark. No problems to date. The last three gas fill-ups used 33 gallons with 921 miles driven, 27.9 miles per gallon in mixed city/highway. This car is very tight and drives like a dream on the highway. I really like the blind spot monitor system and the center rear seat fold down is handy for long items. For you owners with the auto I found that by shifting to Neutral and pressing the engine off button the radio/blue tooth says on, and engine is off. Then shift into park and finish the phone call or radio until you exit. Just push the engine run button twice to completely turn off the car. Now have 37,000 miles and still running great. Great in the snow. Updated tires to pirelli tires cinturato p7 at 34,000 miles. Have had no problems and averaging 27 to 28 MPG. Would recommend the CX 5 over any other crossover on the market. Now have 43000 miles and still running great. No problems. New Pirelli tires are wearing much better than OEM tires. See a lot of CX 5's on the road. Would definitely buy again. Now have 54,000 mile and still running great. Would still buy again, hard to pass up training in on a 2017 but car is doing great and no payments. Now have 66,000 miles and still running great. Did have the minor problem of radio not turning off when turning the engine off. Dealer said they could fix with a updated shifter part for $150. Did my own research and fixed myself for no dollars. Was not a huge deal. Still love my Mazda. Still running great with no problems, getting great gas mileage. Still recommend CX5 to my friends. But do not like the newest body style compared to the original design. New design looks like everyone else, very little difference from most Compacts suv's. Mazda needs to go back to the older design. Has more zoom zoom appeal.

Rock Solid after 188K Miles!
From a reliability standpoint, cars don't get any better than the Mazda CX5. 188K miles and the engine, transmission, exterior and interior are all still looking good and functioning well. The new versions have nicer, upscale materials but the old model was not offensive. It handled well and averaged 33 mpg on the highway (still does). Big drawback was the engine was under powered which made every left turn with on-coming traffic exciting!
