Hello everyone!
I got my crystal pearl white CX5 back in December 21, 2012 and here are some photos. We also have a 2005 Mazda 3 2.0R. Thanks and more power to this forum for helping educate new buyers like me.. With our first baby coming, we have decided to get a compact SUV and was choosing between the CX5 and CRV. I have no regrets in choosing the CX5.

Black is a great color....when it's clean. Had 2 of them in a row but living in NY, went shades lighter. How many "no front plate" tickets have you gotten? I'm chicken to leave mine off, or go too dark with window tint since I seem to attract the constables....
Everything is sealed with Poorboy's EX-P since I got it, and plastic body claddings are properly protected with 303
From what I know of NY, you SHOULD BE!Very true on the black. Everything is sealed with Poorboy's EX-P since I got it, and plastic body claddings are properly protected with 303. I got all the detailing goodies on deck. I am honestly AFRAID to street park the car anywhere in metro NY.
So far, none. Though I've only had the CX for a few weeks. The RX-8 haven't had front plates since I've gotten it, which was years ago. Never had a no front plate ticket. Though I must admit that I never street park the RX-8. That is when I actually drive it, which is once in a blue moon.
I'm pushing my luck though. NY enforces front plates heavily. If I ever get pulled over, I'm screwed.
Care to elaborate on these products?
Here's mine picked up today!

Yet another cloudy rainy day in wales!
Will improve the presentation of the car when the weather allows. The car was delivered in acceptable condition, but I can easily improve on that!
I thought there was a scratch on the silver trim by the gear stick, but it wasn't just the odd bit of glue/sealant/grease (don't know what it was)
It did give me a bit of a shock(eek) but i cleaned it off thank goodness.
I had one person (at night) mention that he thought my new CX-5 was a new Cayenne. Definitely one of the better-looking crossover SUV's at any price.
