    Impressions of my CX-9 GT on the 1st full day of ownership

    Happy? or Unhappy? ZoomFive, After pointing out all the little nits that bother you, what possessed you to buy the car in the first place? You didn't say if you are happy with your purchase or not? We love our CX-9 GT! None of what bothers you bothers us. We focus on the positives, but thanks...

    Thanks Everyone...

    You're right, the difference in MSRP from my CX-9 GT AWD and a similarily equipped MDX is ONLY $6,720. I looked at and drove the MDX and frankly, I don't understand why you would want to fork over that much more money when a very similarily equipped CX-9 costs so much less. I guess I just don't...

    Buying an '08 and some worries

    I also live in Central Florida. I wasn't able to work with any of the dealers in this area (Ocala, Gainesville) so I found my GT AWD in Indianapolis on the Mazda internet locator. I flew up, the dealer picked me up at the airport and after 45 minutes of checkout, I was headed back to Florida...

    Smart Key

    The locks will not activate automatically after you get in the car and drive off. Your dealer can program the locks to activate automatically after parking and walking out of range of the Smart Key system (30 or so feet).

    Worth Waiting for the 3.7L Japanese Motor?

    I ask you, How many people could tell the difference between a 263 watt and 275 watt stereo? I guess there are a few "Audiophiles" out there that would claim they can, but in the real world? I don't think so. Mazda did not build an all new engine for the '08s. They just bumped up the...
