Just took delivery on Saturday and very pleased so far. Looking forward to being a regular contributor here. I searched CARMAX, Auto Trader and the Mazda sites for about a month until a vehicle that met my criteria showed up at a local dealer. The dealer experience was very good.

A week and only 160 miles later - I really have no issues to report. I found and ordered the 2012 "east" CD for the NAV system (eBay) as it came with the 2008 CD. (I don't expect to be in the "west" too often.) My wife finds it a little big but she is used to her Acura TL Type S.
My objective was to get a vehicle with the same features as the Acura and I did. I was pleased to see the information system has a few good features like running fuel economy, etc. Still trying to get used to the request button and how many clicks it takes to open or close what. As a Mazda certified vehicle I have 1-year bumper-to-bumper but if I took it to the shop today I really have no issues.
I won't need tires for at least a year but I guess that will be $1k!
Overall please with the vehicle, the agility, the comfort. It's all good!
Four weeks and only a few nits but still very happy with my purchase. I notice that if my left elbow hits the door panel it's not a quality thunk that I hear - it's more like a cheap crackling sound. Seems to be similar on the passenger door too. Anyone else experience this and any thoughts about tightening it up? Otherwise just a few interior noises I need to track down but nothing serious. On a rainy day I thought I heard some belt squeak when I started it up. Is this common? That's the only time I heard it.
