Repair looks great!

It seems pretty plausible to me that the red coat is essentially the same.

I called Mazda directly and they said they are keeping 41V as the touch up pen for soul red crystal.

In the interest of being unbiased towards a product, in direct sunlight when you get up close you can still see the chip. I was walking out to my car yesterday and the sun was to my back, and the chips did stand out a little. In indirect light, or a cloudy day they are nearly invisible. Soul Red...

I finally got around to touching up my paint chips using the Dr. Colorchip standard kit with Soul Red (41V). This is the result I got using 41V, be aware that Soul Red Crystal is actually 46V. All in all I think it turned out great, but if you have the impression that the kit will completely...

I ordered a Dr. Colorchip kit using the previous Soul Red paint code (41V). Holding the bottle of paint up to the car is looks nearly identical. I will post pics once I fill in the chips!

My MK7 GTI I traded in for the CX-5 had all auto up/down windows, I really miss that feature. Unlit window switches would be nice in terms of overall look, but I don't look down when I use the switches so it doesn't really matter to me. I have found that the seating position in this car makes...

They changed the way they test the MPG, so most cars went down for the 2017 model compared to previous years.

Honda reliability has dramatically been worse on their newer car. If you plan to keep this car awhile I suggest the CX-5. Naturally aspirated and a standard automatic transmission are bound to last longer than a turbo and CVT. I've had my 2017 CX-5 AWD for a week and have average 26.5 MPG

For those of you who may be wondering, I just got off the phone with Mazda Customer Support. After they took my question about touch paint with respect to paint codes (41V for Soul Red/46V for Soul Red Crystal), it appears as though they are maintaining the same part number for both touch up paints.

www.paintscratch.com said they don't have a formula to use for 46V. I am going to try Dr. ColorChip tomorrow.

Soul Red Crystal is 46V. @Xeler8ing Mazda lists it as available, but when I tried to order through Med Center Mazda they said they wouldn't have it in stock until June. Mazda lists 41V as the code for the touch up pen under 2017 CX-5 accessories, I wonder if that is a mistake or if the...

I wasn't expecting on needing touch up paint less than a week into owning this car haha

I put in an inquiry with the new Soul Red paint code, was the paint a good match to your car?

Did you get the Dr Colorchip kit?

I'm assuming a rock of some sort. I typically park in the back of parking lots to not get dings

They are small, but I am OCD and I have only had the car for 6 days haha

Got my 2017 CX-5 last week and already have two small chips on the drivers side door. Mazda does not have anything in stock in terms of touch up paint, what do you guys recommend I do in the mean time?

This is the main reason I got the CX-5 over the Tuscon/CR-V. The standard automatic transmission and naturally aspirated engine will most likely last longer than the CVT and turbo engines offered on the competition.

I just filled my tank for the first time on my AWD GT and came out with 26.5 MPG
