What has been the best price anyone has paid (Florida) for a 2025 Premium Plus out the door including sales tax, reg fee, and destination? Sales tax here is 7%.

I feel for the OP and I too would be upset with the oil consumption and other issues, especially with a new car. My suggestion is to keep a paper trail of everything that's going on in case you don't get the satisfaction you are entitled to. Good luck to you... It's quite upsetting for a new car...

I too started out looking at the CX-30 but found it to be a little to firm and bouncy where the CX-5 was way more civilized .. Currently, I'm still considering the seat comfort on the CX-5, which either works for some and doesn't for others. Both are great cars, with reliable mechanics, other...

Canadian Tariffs postponed as well. I'm sure that if planning on purchasing a new Mazda CX-5....now is the time, as the stealerships are now educated on the tariff sceanrios, and will probably have the leverage needed to keep customers from getting the best deals available.

As Freedom55 mentioned..."so no tariff for now in the US." Yes for now.....However many components of our cars are made in different places worldwide and most likely our cars as well as most things will be affected with prices already steep. This might be a good time to buy, however the...

I wonder how long before the Tariffs have an affect on our prices.

I've been considering a 2025 CX-5 Non Turbo. Is this something I should be concerned about?

Did the upholsterer add the padding to the front of the seat to lengthen the bottom cushion? Where did he make the changes? Thanks

Who did the extra padding for you? An upholstery shop? Sounds very reasonable. How did it turn out and look after?

After 3 years, the electronics (modules, sensors, infotainment center, radio, etc) could be costly to repair or diagnose without some kind of 3rd party warranty.

Warranty issues whenever any modifications are made, unless the car is past it's warranty period.

Actually, I keep the steering wheel far away, as I like to drive with my arms extended straight. It's an absolute shame I can find cars that I dislike with great seats and I love the CX-5 but can't find a comfortable position with the seat.....Something to get used to? Hmmmm... Could be an...

As the OP, I can say that the main problem for me, being 5'7" is the bottom seat is too short giving me NO THIGH SUPPORT So many lesser cars have comfortable seats (such as the Subaru line other than the Crosstrack which is also too short. I love the CX-5 and am ready to go for the Premium...

I might be privileged to get to drive the CX5 for a day as well as overnight which should give me a much better idea of seat comfort. I happen to be fortunate to have an exceptional salesman who is respected and gets things done! This is rare!!!!

After looking at quite a few 2025 Trim groups, I've narrowed down my choice to the Premium Plus in White. However.....The jury is still out on the seat comfort. Coming from a Lexus LS430 and a Jaguar XK Coupe, the seats are quite cozy, however it's a change with the CX5. I drove the car 3 times...
