    Is this a good deal for 2021 CX-5 Touring with package?

    $29730 MSRP $26550 quoted price $3180 discount = ~10.5% discount. This is pretty on par in the current market across major cities. If possible shop outside DFW . Also don't simply ask for a lower price use the dealers against themselves (oh make sure they are not owned by the same parent...

    Am I getting a good rate? 2021 CX-5 Touring (Long Island, NY)

    I am confused.... what does "plus interest rate" mean? did the dealer already quote a monthly payment of 383.97? because 27,646.37 / 72 = 383.97 that is a 0% interest rate.

    Bass Roll Off?

    @kb1824 check your fader settings make sure you haven't manually decreased the volume on the rear channel. As far as I know there is no power different front to rear if the stereo is set to the center.

    What did you pay for your CX-5?

    Monthly payments are normally estimated by an assumed credit score (interest rate) and a loan duration. Don't buy a vehicle based on the dealers monthly payments, buy a vehicle based on the price. Get all the numbers in writing, with a detail of each line item - go from there.

    With Aliexpress? Yes. Been an Aliexpress customer for 7+ years. Takes time to get your item. With the specific item? No - but for the price I'd say it is worth the gamble.

    2021 CX-5 amplifier hidden installation ideas?

    2021 CX-5 amplifier hidden installation ideas?

    Yeah he needs to rethink that. :) Honestly the 7 x 4 x 2 inches these amps are going to use is very small...What ever kid stuff can be held in a seat organizer. https://tinyurl.com/42k6v3a8 I guess if that is not an option...Pull up the center console and shove an amp below that.
