POLL - What vehicle(s) did you own before the CX-7?

[HeavyH20]

Just curious what people had before they decided to get the CX-7. I for one had a 1998 Expedition gas hog that I held onto a for 9 years. Nothing like no car payments

As for a history, we had a 1998 Pontiac GTP, an 1995 Impala SS, 1990 300Z Twin Turbo, 87 Grand National, 87 Mustang, 84 1/2 Mustang GT, 84 Shelby Charger and my very first car, a 1978 Formula Firebird 6.6 with a 403 Olds Special. We also have a 1995 Mazda MPV, currently.

I traded my 97 Mitsubishi Montero Sport LS 4X4 which has 125,000 miles on it and I had it for almost 10 yrs. It served me well but it needs to be replaced. The only thing I missed about it is cargo room and the rugged looks. And yes, I am very happy with my CX7. I've had it since Dec 06 and I still stare at it endlessly.

 

[HeavyH20]

Sounds like my situation. 128,000 miles, 9 years.

The CX-7 is a great little vehicle (well, anything will feel little after driving a boat for 9 years). Now, when there is an errand to be run, I always seem to be the one running out to complete them. It is certainly more fun to drive, that's for certain.

My previous car was a 1992 Nissan 240SX (owned for 8.5 years). I got the CX-7 because I was tired of staring at bumpers while sitting in traffic. (wiggle)

Just curious what people had before they decided to get the CX-7.

Traded my 2005 Tahoe LT 4X4 in on the CX-7 for my wife. I'm driving her old Cavalier until September and will either buy an Audi A4, MS3, WRX, or maybe an RX-8. She loves the CX-7, and I hate that bloody cavalier with every part of my body.

THe other cars I've owned previous to the CX-7:
1975 Chevrolet K5 Blazer (sold)
1977 Mercury Comet (sold)
1977 Cadillac Eldorado (sold)
1979 Chevrolet Corvette L-82 Coupe (will never get rid of)
1992 Ford Ranger XLT (totaled)
1993 Mazda Miata (sold to sister)
1997 F350 4X4 diesel (sold)
2001 Ford F150 XL (traded)

Ive got an old 2-stroke 750cc water cooled Suzuki motorcycle too... may sell soon.

[cruzdreamer]

I had a 2004 Mazda RX 8 GT. I just needed some space for my son and jewelry biz and I wanted something sporty and with some Zoom-Zoom. I had the picture of it hanging on my wall where I design my jewelry for over a year before they decided to put it into production and I said, "This is my next car". I wrote Mazda and said to them..."build it and I will buy it". Of course they built it just for me! ha,ha! ;]

 

[mazdacx7boi]

I had a 2005 Mazda3 and I also have a 2006 Mazda6.
