I have the exact same color, in Mexico, mine is what is called SIgnature and has the turbo engine, it has kind of a sportier drive but I don't really mind since I like driving spiritedly and used to have a Mazda3 turbo which had a much firmer suspension, I wanted a bit more comfort but didn't wanna loose the performance (well at least the turbo CX-5 has much better performance than the rest of the competition in the segment)
I wondered about that and guess what? It's actually acceptable. You do have a 13 band EQ, and with small tweaks, I can actually live with it, which was a concern.
Gorgeous car! Does the car look dusty and dirty all the time due to the dark color? Deciding if I should buy it in your Dark Blue Mica or a much lighter Platinum Quartz Metallic
All DI engines experience carbon build up on the valves. The question is how much over what time period. Higher octane gas and spirited driving can reduce the effects however.
CX5 is a far superior car to the crappy new CX range which are poorly made, noisy, flimsy as hell and filled with broken technology that hinders rather than assists the driver.
Hard color to keep clean but i like the blue better than the machine grey
After all the snow and ice we had last month. Took both of my vehicles this weekend and got inside and out details. Lots of dirt, salt, and dust.

I completely agree with your opinion of the CX-50. Handled like a brick in my opinion. Nothing like the CX-5.
How's the audio system without the bose system?Did you feel any downgrade or a big difference

Congrats!
Thanks
How is the seat comfort?

Dark colors always show more dirt unfortunately.
nice color
Love mine but if I knew about the (DI) carbon build up I would’ve got something else.

It’s not an issue to be concerned about.
@@carenthusiast4984 If you keep a DI vehicle beyond 100K miles it is. Try searching youtube for relevant repair videos and you'll see.

can I ask what you say that?
How much did you pay for this
The CX5 is made in Japan...the CX50 isn't...that is all I needed to know.
Yup. The 50 is a joint venture between Toyota and Mazda. Not exclusively Mazda.
Yep, cx5 in Japan. That's why I got that one. Lighter blue for me as darker looked black to me. I'm liking it so far.
Does it come with blind spot and parking sensors?
This version doesn't have parking sensors as standard.

? CX range? If you meant cx-50, they are built in Alabama which is probably the biggest reason.
