Still Trying To Decide

I test drove the CX-5 Grand Touring along with others in this class and price point. I've narrowed my choices down to the CX-5 Grand Touring and the Hyundai Tuscon Limited. Love the sleek look of the CX-5 inside and out. Some features missing that Hyundai offers are panoramic moonroof, ventilated front seats, heated rear seats and Apple Car Play (though Mazda says Apple Car Play is coming). I love the look and the driving feel of the CX-5 over the Tuscon but I love those added comfort and convenience features that the Tuscon offers over the CX-5. Still waiting to see which car maker if either can fill in the gap between the two first. Will wait to see what comes from both in 2018 and 2019.

Very poorly designed center arm rest is too low and positioned back to far to be useful. AC vents are too high to effectively cool the passenger cabin.Front seats are not adjustable to provide comfortable ride. Poor dealer support. Owner's manual written in badly translated English. Many of the instructions don't make sense. Never another Mazda.

I felt the acceleration was okay. Did not like the choice of interior colors. Drove nicely, but I did not purchase the car.

I was very surprised that after spending 28 thousand dollars for a vehicle you can't even get xm radio. Not that I want mazda to even give me three months free but I have to buy a Sirius radio to put in my brand new vehicle. This may be my last Mazda if they are going to be that cheap!!!!!!!

We recently purchased a 2017 CX-5 Crossover Grand

We recently purchased a 2017 CX-5 Crossover Grand Touring from Modern Mazda. We could not be happier with the vehicle and staff. Our experience was so pleasant. We had John “Fish” Salmon as our salesman. I highly recommend going to him. Absolutely no pressure, very knowledgeable, caring and overall a great guy. We have purchased 2 vehicles from Modern Mazda and John “Fish” helped us on both. I also enjoyed the free coffee and snacks in their newly renovated customer area. A+ experience.
