I wish they had it set up like toyota/lexus. When set to auto the DRL will be on, when off everything is off. I currently just do the steps to turn it on or off. I just like to have full control of my lights.

Good to hear the 3's infotainment isn't slow and laggy. I'm pretty sure it's going to trickle down to other new Mazdas. Since my CX-5 is less than 2 years old, I'm in no hurry to upgrade. I'm definitely glad they have the turbo now and I'm excited to see how the next gen CX-5 will be. Probably...

Yup 20X9 :D

I had my mirrors wrapped in satin silver chrome yesterday. I've been wanting to do this for so long but not sure how it would come out but finally got it done. I've had my mirrors wrapped in gloss black a while back when I had black wheels. Now that I have the roof rails and black chrome wheels...

Roof looks good but I don't know about the back :/

I use those plastic corner things too, they work great :D

2017 also has dual pane front windows, I have the OEM and for the most part there's not much additional wind noise unless there's heavy crosswind.

I turn on my headlights when it rains or when it's gloomy I'll enable the DRL as I don't need the rear lights on. Other than that, I don't need them on on a sunny day. If you can't see me coming on a sunny day, I don't know if you should be driving or not :(

I almost bought the same one from amazon. I ended up spending a bit more for the OEM one instead. Goes on and off super easy, takes 10-15 seconds at most.

OP take a look at this thread :D https://www.mazdas247.com/forum/showthread.php?123859785-2017-CX-5-drl-question&highlight=2017+drl I disabled my DRL as it's not required here. I only enable it whenever it's gloomy out and don't need to turn on every light on the car. I'm not worried about the...

On my 2002 maxima, the seat moves back when you shut off the car and moves forward when you start it, steering wheel doesn't move tho. I honestly think that feature is useless and I end up turning it off. I can get in and out of the car fine with the seat as is. I feel like I actually had a...

Yeah I tend to use those buttons with my middle finger lol I've had a few occasions where I merged in front of someone and I gave them the peace sign to thank them but they flipped me off. After it happened the 3rd time I think people think I was flipping them off when I gave them the peace sign :/

My 2009 pontiac vibe gt hatchback had a normal 12v wall type power outlet in the back seat and hatch area, I wish the cx-5 has this. My 2000 honda accord coupe has the sunroof controls down by the dash kinda around where we have the traction control button, I loved that position. Having the...

I put 20% over rear factory tint and 35 up front but it was too light so added another layer of 50% over it so it's probably around 20% up front too. Front windshield is tinted 70% and sunroof 55%, all using photosync tint.

My wheels are 20X9 and I think ET 45. I'm currently running 235/45r20 tires. I've already scraped my wheels a bit so I want wider tires :( I do plan on going with 255/40r20 tires once these are done. I want a bit more beefy tires lol

Having more torque will be nice, I remember driving my dad's 98' ford explorer 4.0 v6 which only had 160 hp but 225 tq it was very effortless driving up mountains and stuff and never felt slow. With the 2.5na in the CX-5, I have to step on the gas a bit more to get up the same mountain. I can...

You kinda do get use to the noise and I don't find it too much difference with and without the visors. I got the OEM ones and I actually ripped the clips off and just used the double sided tape that was on it. I only hear wind noise when there's cross wind, otherwise even at 70 mph it's still...

I wish they had these OEM replica visors when I first got mine. I had to get mine from dealer which was around $150 :/

There used to be a squeak/rattle coming from the windshield area. I shoved some foam weather strip at the base of the a pilar where windshield meets the dash and that stopped the noise. Other than that my 2017 has no other odd noises. My 2014 mazda3 was also squeak/rattle free after I fixed the...

I'm going to test drive the 2.5T eventually, just to see how it drives. Doubt I'll trade in for it but just so I know what I'm missing :D I love the CX-5 and will keep it for a few more years then probably get a sedan next. I'd really like to get back into an accord again and I do like the new...
