I bought the CX-5 GT last month and I have about 800 miles on it. I test drove many cars and read the reviews before I bought it. I am happy with the performance and interior of the car. I have not checked the miles it gives per gallon but I hope it gives me good mileage after the break in period.

I used edmunds.com price promise to secure an awesome deal. I bought the car online while working in China. It was great to have a car ready for me when I returned to America. I was 100% happy with the price. I have bought many cars and price was comparable. Wayne Mazda and Edmunds.com made the process easy. Before I moved to China, I owned a 2014 Mazda CX-5. Sold to my friend when I moved. The Mazda CX-5 is a great vehicle. I recommend the Bose package if you like music!

Everything was pretty good about the care, nut the performance was anemic. PUT A TURBO ON IT. I drive in a city where I'm drove inside and on a box of freeways. And when I hit the accelerator my foot was to the floor about 75% of the time. 0-60 yeah not great, ability out maneuver idiots, could be better. The car is actually really nice, it is just the performance. It needs more! The other thing...why can't the rear hatch have a motor. IT IS 2018 (my car was a "2016.5" and just more than a year old). The seats were "Leatherette" - I'm not sure what that material is. But otherwise a nice car, like I said MORE PERFORMANCE! With all the safety features and parent wants to drive it for a few years until their teen gets a license, would be awesome for them.

rodent nest

A great vehicle for 95000 miles. This past winter it was parked outside in my driveway in a rural area. Rodents (mice I think) infested it & caused damage to the tune of $3000 & still counting. It has been at repair garage for 3 months & remains. The rodents chewed electrical wires, fuel line to the gas tank. Mazda parts must be manufactured with rodent tasty parts. I will not be buying another Mazda
