    Knowing the defects, what made you buy a cx-5 still?

    Yeah, the cx-5 was my top choice before test driving and I was debating between the Santa Fe Sport and CRV. The CX-5 I test drove had the side mirror vibration and it was pretty annoying. I'm sure if I didn't read up on it, I probably wouldn't have noticed it. Guess it was my fault for...

    Knowing the defects, what made you buy a cx-5 still?

    Thanks to everyone who's actually contributing with their input and ideas. This is just a friendly question and discussion. It seems like the consensus is that the positives outweigh the negatives (select few). I do understand that the vibrating issues and the cracked window only happen to a...

    Knowing the defects, what made you buy a cx-5 still?

    Definitely agree with all you of in weighing out the serious issues vs minor annoyances. I loved how it drove, but personally I didn't want to deal with mirror stuff (had it on the one I drove). The CX-5 is a great CUV and I hope they iron these small issues for the late 2015/2016 models. I...

    What did you pay for your CX-5?

    Didn't end up getting the CX-5, but I got a mouth quote of 1750 off invoice for the GT with the Tech package after test driving it. I think the price would be 28480 before TTL (had rails, rear sensor, bumper plate, wheel locks). This was in the Bay Area.

    Knowing the defects, what made you buy a cx-5 still?

    Just curious on why you bought your cx-5 after knowing there's window cracking issues as well as the whole vibrating side mirrors. I test drove a 15 with the new mirrors and knowing that these issues were prevalent with no recall or fix in the near future I just couldn't pull the trigger. It...

    New mirrors for 2015?

    Test drove a '15 with the new lights and the vibration issue still exist on the driver side. Do you know if this happens with all CX-5's or is it only certain ones?

    Finally home! 2015 CX-5 GT AWD!

    Nice one! Can I ask what you paid for it before TTL? I'm looking at the GT FWD and just debating if some of the options are worth it for me. Thanks!
