Subaru owners have zero problems selling their crossovers/wagons with a manual transmission (and quite a few are equipped that way). I don't see it being a problem.

No thanks. I had a 'speed3 not too long ago and it was just too small inside.

JD Power initial quality is a joke. Example: Hyundai usually scores better than Honda, but go drive both with 80K on them and tell me which one feels and drives like a better car at that point.

Wife has a new '14 CRV Ex AWD. She loves it and overall, truth be told, that car will probably hold its value a little more. Plus, all CRV's now come standard with the backup camera, bluetooth, etc. I can't knock it in any way, but to me it just doesn't offer the driving dynamics that the CX5...

Since it was brought up...how does the 6MT 2.0 cruise @ 70-75mph or so? And yes, part of the appeal of the 6MT with the 2.0 is being able to zing it to redline (which is higher than that of the 2.5). And the Sport is just such a freaking good value for the money. It also shouldn't lose as...

I've spent significant time in an Acura RDX (turbo with the paddle shifters) and even though that AT was very good as well...it still was not a substitute for a 3rd pedal.

No 6MT tranny. Part of the appeal of the CX-5 is that it offers a stick shift. Subaru is about the only other company that you can get a crossover in with this feature.

If the steering wheel is the same design on all models, then just order one from the parts counter (in leather). Sure, it'll be a couple hundred...but it'll look and feel a lot better and be 100% OEM. Honda's are notorious for carrying the same design through trimlines, so it is an easy swap...

I'm looking for a new daily driver that has a decent amount of utility and some sport to it. Since Mazda Motorsports lets me do S-plan, a 2014 6MT CX-5 sport is actually a very affordable car and seems to fit my needs quite well. However, I drive one and it felt like it was stuck in molasses...
