  • Great CUV - 2007 Mazda CX-7
    By -

    As lots of others here, I drove lots of other CUVs. I traded in my Audi A4 Quattro. I was very worried about losing performance and handling of the A4, but with the CX its all here! It still blows me away when I hit it off the line. Its so fast for this size of vehicle. The gas does suffer while doing quick starts, but to me its worth the performance! The other CUVs in its class were boring and felt numb. This is a CUV for people who love to drive!

  • We have really enjoyed this car - 2007 Mazda CX-7
    By -

    We leased our CX-7 in Mar. of 07 when the model was brand new. We have loved this car. We are spoiled with the sunroof, back-up camera, navigation and space. Our budget is less now, so we will have to give up some of these conveniences in our next car. I agree about the rough ride. Tires wear out very quickly and the ride gets rough and noisy when the tires begin to wear out. We have had a TERRIBLE time with the AC. Went out in Mar. 09, then 3 days after the warranty expired in Mar. 10, it went out again! Hassled with the dealer; they initially refused to cover it and charged us $100 to diagnose it. They ended up installing a new unit and refunded the $100. No other mechanic prob.

  • First Mazda Owned - 2007 Mazda CX-7

    We traded a Mitsubishi Endeavor for this CX-7 which was a downsizing for us. Gas mileage about the same so far. Dealer suggested regular unleaded gas, but have been afraid to try that yet. Changes gears quite frequently driving in the mountains like we do. Overall satisfied so far.

  • Surprisingly Nice - 2007 Mazda CX-7
    By -

    Had a Toyota RAV4 and hated it. Went to Mazda just looking around and the CX-7 caught my eye. Test drove it and I was hooked instantly. Doesnt feel like an SUV when driving it (a great thing I might add). I was sick of feeling like some soccer mom stuck in a "practical vehicle." This actually feels more like a sports car than an SUV.

  • CX-7 a flop - 2007 Mazda CX-7
    By -

    The cx-7 is the worst front wheel drive vehicle I have ever owned.The standard equipment Turanza tires had to be replaced at first snowfall! It oversteers terribly and the check engine light has a mind of its own(No its not the gas cap,either)! Would not suggest to anyone living North of the Mason-Dixon!

  • Buyer Beware of New Model Year - 2007 Mazda CX-7
    By -

    I have owned my cx-7 for about 7 months (it only has a little over 2000 miles). I have had to take it back to the dealer for warranty repairs 3 times already. The "Check Engine" light keeps coming on. If you search the problem on the internet, you will find that many other people are having the same problem with this car. I am beginning to wish I had my reliable Toyota back!

  • Nice vehicle, few issues - 2007 Mazda CX-7
    By -

    This vehicle has nice sporty performance, SUV or not. Good acceleration despite "turbo lag," which can be obnoxious. Quality interior, though somewhat bland appearance. Bose sound system very nice. Decent gas mileage, but premium fuel requirement is expensive - should have used V-6 which probably would have given same MPG with no premium fuel requirement. Braking is excellent. Ride is quite stiff. I needed to replace all four tires at just 18,000 miles. No other maintenance issues. Overall I am happy with this vehicle, but it could use a few modifications/upgrades.

  • Fun Car...Needs V6 - 2007 Mazda CX-7
    By -

    Ive had this car for about a month, a typical Mazda automobile, fun to drive, excellent handling, breaking, and interior design. I would recommend this car to anyone, however its major drawback is the fact its a Turbo instead of a V6...for some reason Mazda is obsessed with them and it requires PREMIUM GAS!

  • Zoom Zoom, Indeed - 2007 Mazda CX-7
    By -

    I love my car!! I almost wish my commute to work was longer because its so fun to drive. I love the fact that their arent too many others like mine on the road. Mazda does an awesome job - Ive owned both a 323 hatchback (which I drove for 12 years with no problems) and a Tribute, and know that my next car will also be a Mazda.

  • Awsome - 2007 Mazda CX-7
    By -

    This car is great. I have had it over two years. If you want great gas mileage get a car not a suv (especially one with a turbo). I get about 23 mph hwy. Never had a problem. The tires are poor but its just that brand. I have two young boys and interior has held up wonderfully.
