    Brand new cx-5 - what's the first thing you do?

    I purchased mine a few weeks ago, the first things I did was; 3D Winter Floor Mats, Tinted Front Windows, Clear Bra Installed (hood, bumpers, fenders, mirrors, headlights), and started a maintenance binder for all paperwork.

    2016 CX-5 GT Navigation Updates!

    Just as an FYI, I purchased my vehicle brand new (2016 GT) 2 weeks ago and it did not have the most recent map update installed. I put my SD card into my computer, opened the toolbox and was informed that an update was available. I downloaded the update on Windows XP with no issue.

    Front Body Protection

    I am in the same boat; just put 200 miles on my CX-5 and I want to get the clear bra installed. I had it on one of my BMWs and the car looked great after many years. I didn't install it on my other (which was 4 years newer) and it looked much worse than the older one with the bra. I just got...

    Cleaning the interior?

    For my BMW I used Einszett Cockpit Premium for the trim and Swissvax Leather Cleaner for the leather. I was concerned that the Einszett might be a bit to harsh / abrasive for the CX-5 dash so, like everyone else, I went with 303 for the CX-5. I plant to continue to use Swissvax Leather Cleaner...

    Matte Black Emblems?

    Fantastic - thank you for the insightful reply. I am not a huge fan of the "M" style emblem so I won't be going that route. I will take a look on a few of those sites to check out the "JDM" ones; more than likely I will pick up replacement stock items and them professionally painted as I...

    Matte Black Emblems?

    Thanks for the information. I will check out japanparts.com and ali express, never heard of either of them. I was hoping to have it already painted black as I didn't want to go through the hassle of painting. While $200 is a lot (and more than I wish to spend) I am coming from a 2011 BMW 335...

    Matte Black Emblems?

    Sounds good, dick! Anyone have a useful answer? I'm not looking to plasti-dip and am not familiar with any Mazda sites yet. Any (usefully) assistance would be great.

    Matte Black Emblems?

    Hello All! I have a 2016 Meteor Gray GT; I wanted to see if anyone knew of a place to buy Matte Black emblems and the chrome trim piece in the front bumper/grill area? I think the chrome sticks out too much and wanted to tone it down a bit. Thanks :)

    Purchasing A New CX-5, should I wait until after labor day for new incentives?

    Attached is the bill write up - They didn't budge on MSRP but they did give me $3,000 more on my trade than most other dealerships so I was OK with it, especially since they had to have the car shipped in as it wasn't in stock. Market Value - $31,900.00 Rebate - $500.00 Adj. Sale Price -...

    Purchasing A New CX-5, should I wait until after labor day for new incentives?

    Well I made an agreement with a dealership; I agreed on a 2016 Grand Touring w/ Technology Package in Meteor Gary (which is really the only color I wanted) for $30,700 out the door (Taxes, Title, Fees, etc. all included) I am pretty happy with that. There was a dealership about an hour away...

    Purchasing A New CX-5, should I wait until after labor day for new incentives?

    Yup - same here in PA. It will save me almost $1,800. I will be taking that into account when I receive the final trade value.
