  Fun car Zoom-Zoom - 2007 Mazda CX-7
  By solidhit - October 31 - 1:21 am

  Traded in my 03 Expedition for the CX 7. I was impressed with the zippy handling and overall performance of the CX. I was looking at several cross overs and smaller SUVs but the Touring edition had what I was looking for. I was surprised at the way the turbo 4 cyl handled with 4 people. I was expecting it to bog down with the extra weight but it certainly didnt. It has the room for everything I need it for including the towing package I needed for a small trailer and a future boat. Gas mileage from my first tank full was a respectful 17.5. I expect that to increase since I didnt drive very conservatively, wanting to see what she would do on different road types.

  Turbo power! Excellent! Zoom Zoom! - 2007 Mazda CX-7
  By Bruce - October 19 - 8:20 am

  My favorite feature is the turbo engine. Accelerating on the entrance ramp to merge onto the highway or turning the corner into traffic comes with such ease, and I feel like I barely have to hit the gas. This is something I grew so tired of with previous cars I owned...hitting the gas and feeling like I am going nowhere, and never going to get there. Passing semis and slow moving traffic is just so easy because once again I feel like I just zoom right past them. I guess it depends what youre used to, but the V4 turbo power blows away V6 engines I have driven previously. Additionally, this car handles well, and the height you drive at is great. I feel safe and in control. So much fun to drive!

  We love our Zoom-Zoom - 2007 Mazda CX-7
  By We-Zoom - October 2 - 1:03 am

  Fast - Fun - Wow! We searched for months and months to find the right vehicle and the CX-7 won. I use it to commute in and I must admit that Ive never enjoyed going to work as much. An added benefit is that my husband and I equally love the car. We added the Homelink mirror which has our garage doors programmed in and exterior lights.

  Great Car, when it runs 8^( - 2007 Mazda CX-7
  By David Lane - September 28 - 4:30 pm

  I fell in love with the styling. I fell in love with the features. I fell in love with the handling. Then the honeymoon was over. After approximately 1800 miles on it, the engine started to sputter when it was cold. It idled fine. But as soon as you put it in gear, the engine would shake violently, & only rev to approximately 2k rpm when you mashed on the gas. The colder the weather the worse it was. 1st trip, dealer, they said it needed a software update. Didnt help. 2nd trip, tried to repair a valve. Didnt help. 3rd replace valve. 4th more software. It is on its 5th time and they dont know what is wrong (after 3 days). If it is not fixed this time, I will try to go the lemon law route. 8^(

  Wow I finally love my car - 2007 Mazda CX-7
  By Sharon - September 22 - 8:43 pm

  Ive had this car 3 months and love it! I researched/test drove too many to list. But once I drove this one, that was it. Great brakes, maybe too touchy, really fun to drive. I went for the low end because of money and really do not miss much. Yes there is lag in turbo, figured out if I get the rpms up I can control the acceleration. I leased this and will probably end up buying it or 2009 model. Best car Ive ever owned. Went from F-150/Expedition to CX-7 without any issues. Ford can keep their vehicles.

  CX-7 Sport - 2007 Mazda CX-7
  By greeko - September 12 - 8:30 pm

  I bought my CX-7 in 2011. I am the 3rd owner and I have to say I am really please by the performance and overall quality Mazda put in this model. The turbo acceleration is one of the fastest I have been able to drive on a SUV and having that power ready under the hood provide a feeling of security on the roads (when you need to get out from a spot you have what it needs). I have drove 60K with it and do the maintenance regularly. Does not cost much at Petboys, and never had an issue. I read many post on reliability of this model and I do not understand like them what went wrong with their. I would put that on lack of knowledge of the mechanics who touched their cars.

  Very Happy - 2007 Mazda CX-7
  By Bryan Banks - September 5 - 1:00 am

  I traded in a 2006 BMW 325i, and I have been very happy with my CX7. I have found the engine to be very responsive with virtually no turbo lag, as it accelerates smoothly. It is stronger in the lower speeds which is where you want it. The ride is very good with good handling but still smooth. It has a great Bose stereo and the interior is well thought out and easy to use. I found the fuel economy to be right on with the urban mileage at 19 and the highway at 24. Now if you keep your foot hard on the accelerator and the turbo kicked in it obviously will be less as in all cars driven hard. I think the CX7 is a little more inviting to do this so the mileage is up to how you drive.

  By Fastphil111 - August 31 - 11:03 pm

  Great handling, gas a little expensive because of high octane need. Handles well, great on highway, great sound system, head turner. Should have turbo logo. Sunroof nice and big, plenty of cargo room, some turbo lag, awesome.

  Bad Choice - 2007 Mazda CX-7
  By Pbear - August 28 - 5:36 am

  I loved this car when we first purchased it. After 3 months we started having problems with it. It has been in the shop 14 times in the year that we have had it. Trying to get it declared a lemon. New transmission module, new computer, new tires and new engine!! Dont buy this year model!

  Just Loving It - 2007 Mazda CX-7
  By X FIRE N - August 27 - 8:50 pm

  After owning several vehicles over the year my standards are very high when it comes to new vehicles. The CX7 is great value. Its not the best crossover out there but it is the best for the money spent. Good performance, nice ride with just the right amount of options. First Mazda, lets see how it goes.
