Good Little SUV

Never a Mazda or SUV fan but needed the AWD. Seats are leather but seem to be a bit hard. It is the GT model and it drives well although I do find it struggling to accelerate quickly and often seems lost between gears. Feels like the motor is winding while the transmission waits too long to up-shift. The infotainment system takes a little while to get used to because it is not a touch screen and I have a feeling the scroll wheel will be a point of failure at some time in the future. I personally don't like the way Mazda's look but it is growing on me. How could I buy a vehicle I don't find attractive? It has what I need and the price was right. I would highly suggest a turbo model.

Nice little crossover. Comfortable, packed with tech & safety and stylish. I don't think it looks as good as an Acura RDX, but a similarly equipped RDX would have been close to $10K. For me, that just wasn't worth it. Turbo engine is nice and I am getting about 27 MPG, mostly highway. No complaints from me.
