Some dealers were competitive on the price of CX-5. Some dealers were not as responsive (3 or 4 days to respond) to our quote request and another gave us the MSRP price minus $100. What sold us with the Trade-In value we received. There was a big disparity between dealers on the Trade-in value. In the price range of the CX-5 we felt we received a good value for the money. There were better driving SUV's but once you added options we use then the value wasn't there. 2 years old and working well… Happy with it… We took a couple 500 mile trips and it worked well. I like the cruse control with radar… CX-5 does burn 1 quart of oil every 2500 miles.

This is a great handling car. To get the same level of driving you would have to step up to more luxury brands. None of the mainstream brands come even close. Great reliability ratings. Premium interior and superior fit and finish. Quite too.

Snug seats & Priced Over MSRP

2021 Mazda CX-5 Carbon Edition Turbo 4dr SUV (2.5L 4cyl Turbo 6A)
25 of 39 people found this review helpful
The Mazda CX-5 is a nice SUV as all the reviews agree, but it's not for everyone. The sporty image Mazda is striving for results in heavily bolstered front seats that are not comfortable for everyone. The turbo charged engine is only available on the upper trims pushing $38-40,000, and the Carbon edition with an MSRP of about $33,000. We went looking for the lower priced way to get the turbo, but dealers are treating the Carbon edition like it's already turned into a diamond, adding $5000 to the sticker plus the phoney alarm for $1300 and the Scotch tape on the door edges for $399. Dealers seem to think buyers will forgive and forget these scams when inventories grow in the next few months, but I have never gone back to one dealership that tried to screw me over in the 70's and I have put this Mazda dealership on the same list.

Purchased a new 2021 Grand Touring w/Premium Pkg. Dark Blue w/black leather. It's FWD and non-turbo which is perfect for our driving style and region. The engine is plenty peppy and the 6 speed auto shifts like perfection. The interior is very luxurious. Heated and cooled seats. Bose stereo. Heads up display feels like you're driving a Vette. Memory seats which is great since me & my spouse both use the car and ratcheting the drivers seat manually in our old car was a pain. Now we just push a button. Wife likes the power liftgate, something our old car didn't have either. Really like the way it drives. My only complaint would be the budget tires they use. I'll give Mazda a pass but it's one shortcoming for such a fine automobile. Haven't really checked fuel mileage yet but expect 28-32 average. Plan to keep this for many years.

I've just upgraded from a 2018 Mazda 3 to a 2021 CX5 . I love them both. They both handle well, never had any issues with the 3 and expect the same with the CX5. Mazda has me hooked!
