Anyone know how much dealer holdback there is on CX-5's? Does it vary based on model year inventory? It's been suggested that 10% under MSRP is a good deal. If 4% comes from MSRP - Dealer Invoice then there must be enough holdback to get the other 6% for the dealer to agree to a sale and...

That seems like a great deal on a new/scarce Signature model!

No, hate sunroofs!!

Wow, first report and it's in Utah. Congrats!!! You're the first, please post a performance review and compare and contrast it to your '17. Please post images and lots of them!!! This morning I see 4 GT-R's in the local area. However it doesn't mean they're actually on the lots yet. So far...

Interesting!! It looks like there's plenty of 2019's at the dealers but hardly any w/2.5T. Out of 91, I only see 1 GT-R and no Signatures. Maybe the 2.5T's are coming on the next boat. Anyone in Seattle want to take this one for a test drive and report back...

You should have posted this in the CX-9 forum. And where are the driver "reviews" for the CX-5 w/turbo?

I just removed off my Nokian Winter Tires and installed my stock Geolanders which are getting pretty thin in tread depth. What are a few of your favorite three season tires. I care about rain performance but don't care about snow/ice since I use my Nokians in the winter. Any suggestions? TIA.

Hot water, bug sponge and old newspaper to wipe dry. (maybe a splash of ammonia) Chemical glass cleaners are not needed and will eventually leave a haze.

Someone backed into mine in a parking garage. Damage was minimal but the bill was around $1000. It turns out I had a witness that left a note on my windshield and State Farm was able to nail them for the entire bill.

Old thread but I just came across it. WOW, the CX-4 is really a beautiful car. It's really a shame we won't get it(mad).

Yes, I'd really like to have some more range.

All that is "fluff" IMHO. I'd like an 18 gallon tank and a turbo.

I'm about to need new tires for my AWD CX-5. (ie P225/65/17) I only care about 3 seasons because I use dedicated winter tires. (ie Nokian Hakkapaleta R2 SUV which are fantastic) What are 2-3 of the best tires for a CX-5 based on 3 season performance, good handling, low noise and PNW rain? I'm...

For the tiny price difference, I want to stick with the OEM oil due to the specific Moly formulation which appears to be pretty important for our engines. In addition the free shipping over $100 is better then going to B&M stores.

That's it and thanks!!!

About a year ago there was an online supplier that provided a special consisting of 3 oil changes worth of Mazda Oil and CX-5 filters at a decent price. Does anyone have the link. I searched under sponsors and for sale and can't seem to find the link to the kit. Thanks,

More power output for when your at these operating conditions. For the same reason you can usually downgrade the octane for vehicles that require premium if you're in cool/moist and low load conditions. I'm sure Mazda spec'd 87 as safe for all operating conditions but that doesn't mean it's...

No, but higher octane in those conditions may reduce the degree of timing retardation the engines PCM will dictate if it starts to detect knock. Suboptimal timing retardation reduces power.

Although ethanol does reduce the toxicity of car exhaust, it can also be very corrosive. Ethanol can absorb water and dirt very easily, and if those contaminants are not filtered out successfully, they can cause damage and corrosion inside the engine block. Fuel efficiency is also a...

Given a choice, go with ethanol free if you can find it. (more BTU and less damaging to engine parts)
