4568# curb weight is not good, but also not as bad as I thought it would be. Still, that's 700# more than the outgoing CX5, and 500# more than the Stelvio/RDX/Q5/X3/GLC300 which it will directly compete against, and also consider the CX70 will weigh a hair more again, so maybe 4600-4700#. They...

Yes it does. This is much classier than the first image. I like white cars, but...not this one.

Far better!!!

It is reasonable to expect the CX70 to have different styling somewhat as well, so for those of us in NA, I think the powertrain and overall Front to Rear proportions are the more important bits to focus on for now. I for one am impressed thus far! Not regretting I bought my RDX, yet, but Mazda...

Really looks good on the spec sheet. The styling looks cheap though, for whatever reason. The CX5 and CX9 look elegant and nice right now. This looks like Kia or Hyundai got ahold of it in the last part of design phase. The fender vent, the grill are my main complaints. The car does look...

I now have owned both, and timed both. The RDX is broken in, per Acura, and so I ran it, filmed the run, and looked at the times. From the time it began moving forward unti it broke 60 was 6.45 seconds. Throwing out the 1ft rollout, that is 6.15. The cx5, conversely, took 6.7 seconds to reach...

I realigned my priorities, you're right.

Maybe, but thus far I don't know what I'd get instead.

The 2022 looks better. Lots less going on up front than 2021.

The Mazda is 20% cheaper than the acura, and the Prime, depending on trim, runs from about 10% less than the Mazda after tax credit, to 10% more, after tax credit. With the Mazda, you get good reliability, and lots of interior features and a good engine. The transmission and suspension and awd...

I agree with you until this trim/model. It looks pretty good IMO, although obviously I'm biased. Thanks! Also of note, the headlights don't swivel or turn, but they pump out a HUGE band of light L to R vs. other vehicles I've driven, to the point that swiveling would kindof me redundant. I...

Its been nasty out, so not much. Still need to get it tinted and wrapped. I have an appointment on the 14th.

Weather here has been horrible with snow and freezing rain and temps in single digits, so my driving has been pretty sedate, even for vehicle break in (I break my vehicles in gradually over 1000mi, progressing from driving Mrs Daisy to WOT by 1K, as this is what my Z06 manual recommended, and...

Glad you caught that! I wonder if the stoopid amount of liquid legal meth I drink counteracts that with all the taurine and B12 and all that stuff in it?

You're absolutely correct. I was into the CX5, although I was not huge on the AWD system, it is pretty good, but the RDX was just a bit more, in every way. The SH-AWD, the adjustable dampers, etc. were what pushed me. Supposedly the rear windscreen issue is fixed. That said, Acura sells 50-60K...

Just an update to this thread. I would often check my cx5 turbo oil level. I noted a fuel like odor. I kindof wrote this off as "whatever". I now check my rav4 prime oil level, and there is NO fuel like odor. It stood out to me because it is so different. That said...is this a problem? Due to...
