"The Miata of SUV's"

I have owned two Miatas and loved them. I also traded my 2007 Honda CRV for a CX5 GT with AWD. I drove the new CRV as well. It's very nice and engine feels a bit more powerful than the CX5 but there is no comparison in handling. The CRV is more luxurious in ride & handling (softer). But the CX5 handles like a sports sedan -- amazing for an SUV! Seats feel like they were pulled from the BMW M-Sport parts bin (no kidding). Very comfortable, solid and so far I am averaging 28.1 mpg around town (with a bit over 1000 miles). That is WAY better than I did with my CRV (about 23 mpg). I can fit to adult bikes in the back with the seats folded! If you want a sporty, efficient SUV, this is it!

PURCHASED 2013 GRAND TOURING in November 2012

I went out to get a cup of coffee -stopped at the Mazda dealership-test drove the 2013 CX-5 grand touring-bought it. So fun to drive- servicing reasonable and only one expensive service. I just bought a new CX-5 and gave my old one to my daughter-after a service and detailing, it looked brand new. Had amazing features and she has promised to give it back if she no longer wants it because I truly love this car

Fantastic SUV which seems to have gone unnoticed

Got the same mileage driving to Kentucky from PA as my Toyota Corrolla S did. Beautiful interior with the leather package. Geers shift a little bit slower than I prefer but you can always throw it into manual and shift yourself. Great stereo with the Bose package. The navigation system misunderstands often. Heard there are others that experience this and Mazda has been working on a solution. Actually about to visit the dealer tomorrow to see if buying the 2016 model makes sense. Love this vehicle.
