It’s funny, you replaced your old CX-5 with the new 2.5T CX-5, upgraded to the Prime, realized that while it was an improvement it still wasn’t as enjoyable to drive as you’d like. Now you’re getting the car you really want. The car you’re actually going to enjoy driving.The CX5 checks all the boxes except it's FWD based and terribly nose heavy.
As for reliability, Mazda of late isn't exactly "problem free", so...YOLO! I'd rather YOLO in a 50/50 weight distributed Italian vehicle than a FWD based front-heavy one, so it is what it is.
In my case I put down a deposit for the Prime to replace my old CX-5. Realized I was going to have to wait too long for the Prime, compromised and got the Signature instead. Drove the Signature for about the same amount of time as you’ve had your Prime, and now I’m getting the car I’ll actually enjoy driving. You’re my automotive brother from another mother!
