Still a rare bird...
I just got back from a roadtrip from Pittsburgh, PA to Hilton Head, SC, Savannah, GA, and Charleston, SC... and back to the Burgh. Covered almost 2000 miles in 6 states, over the last 10 days...
AND NOT A SINGLE CX-7 SPOTTED ON THE ROAD !!!!!!
The only other CX-7's we saw were on dealership lots.
The CX-7 was absolutely AWESOME on the highways. My wife would say, "It doesn't even feel like we're moving." Truth was, we were cruising at least 70 mph! Also, the seats were quite comfortable, even after sitting for 6 hours. As for the Zoom-Zoom factor... passing at 80+ mph was a breeze with a quick step on the gas peddle. I had to remind my wife to look at the speedometer - she wouldn't realize she was doing over 90 !!!!!
Will be calculating mileage & posting soon - it appears we averaged about 20 mpg overall.

Been driving our Black Cherry Mica GT for 2 weeks now. Had a great opportunity to drive about 4 hours north to Stillwater, OK and back for Thanksgiving. The car was a pleasure to drive and with an Escort 8500 X50 in the window watching for smokey - 80 mph was a comfortable cruise speed. Pulled the baffle from the airbox on the way back, but didn't see any noticable improvement in the fuel mileage. all in all - for the bucks one of the best cars I've owned.

Went to the mall in sanford on friday and finally saw another CX7. Was another silver as well. That is one of only a few I have seen down here. When I was in NJ two weeks ago, I saw more in one weekend then I have in months down in Florida.
San Diego, CA (North County). I see a CX7 almost every day now when commuting to work daily (50 miles one way). I have seen almost every color except the light blue one, and most i see is brand new owners (new purchase, w/no tags). The most ive seen in one day is around 6 CX to and from work...The CX7 population is slowly growing on this corner.

Someone actually followed me into my driveway the other night becuase they have been trying to spot one. LOL
PS white ones are hard to spot because they are faster than the other colors.

Hooray!
Saw a blue one in Catskill, NY last week.
Sunday drove down to NYC for a bit of shopping and family. Pulled into a shopping center and found a light grey one, (Sport model).
Parked right next to it. What a sight. Waited a bit for the driver then took
off.
That makes two to date in the three months that I have been driving my CX-7.

-- Zoom zoom!I've seen 3 or 4 on the road since I discovered the CX-7 about two months ago or so (i'm in Cleveland). It was the same when I bought my Mazda 6 in 2003. Not many on the roads at first (and I bought mine well into the first year of production), but over time the popularity and numbers built.
