  Familyt Road-Trip Rock Star! - 2010 Mazda CX-9
  By tdough - May 10 - 1:23 pm

  We have 17,000 miles on our 2010 CX9, 5000 of those have come in a 5000+ mile cross-country and back trip in the past five weeks. I have really liked this car since I bought it 15 months ago, now I love it! It really excels on the highway - very fun to drive, great handling, and very comfortable. I really shopped around before buying it, especially giving the Honda Pilot serious consideration, but I am SO glad I went with the Mazda.

  From Murano to CX-9 - 2010 Mazda CX-9
  By Slugworth - May 6 - 3:20 pm

  We needed a bigger vehicle as our child gets older. Ive had 2 previous Nissan Muranos with excellent ratings but it was too small. Saw this vehicle on the road. Im a big music lover and saw that it had Bose sound system with AudioPilot and surround.

  Downsized from Suburban - 2010 Mazda CX-9
  By thead2 - April 6 - 3:53 pm

  I downsized from a 2003 Suburban and was concerned about giving up 8 passenger seating so I was glad to find the CX-9. The third row is difficult to get little ones in and out that need adult help in getting fastened, I would not want this to be an every day thing, but I am a grandparent, so when needed it will work. The built in dvd system was a hit on day 1. I have had it not quite a month, and so far I am very pleased with it. Gas mileage is not great, however I knew that going in. It has great power which was important in going from my V8 Suburban, I havent gotten myself into trouble yet. Its very comfortable, seats are great. No issues yet, overall very pleased.

  Best 7 Passenger SUV out there - 2010 Mazda CX-9
  By JT - February 3 - 12:30 pm

  Had it two weeks. Thrill to drive. You name it, we considered it. Bottom line was MDX, Traverse, and CX-9. MDX offered really no extra value for the money and the 2nd row didnt allow rear entry on both sides! MDX 3rd row terrible. Easy on the CX-9. The Traverse was just too long for our garage. Its half a foot longer than a minivan. For our family, this was the best value and ride. We got every feature and were treated well. No regrets. We were surprised how much we liked CX-9. Always presumed wed buy an MDX (actually disappointed it wasnt as good as wed expected).

  Mazda cx-9 touring awd - 2010 Mazda CX-9
  By Chandra - October 8 - 12:23 pm

  I have purchased this car from Maxon Mazda in NJ,and i am really happy with the car. You would never be disappointed with this vehicle. Especially with its backup- camera, and bose audio system. It is a real fun-driving machine. The only disadvantage could be with the mileage otherwise i am extremely happy with the car and its dynamics.. Bye bye Toyota and Honda.

  Crossover Best Buy - 2010 Mazda CX-9
  By Dave - September 16 - 7:30 pm

  It was finally time to replace the 10 year old Pathfinder. In making our decision, the wife and I test drove the Pilot, Highlander, Veracruz and the CX-9. We were completely blown away by the the way the CX-9 handled. Believe me, you really need to test drive this vehicle to fully understand how well it drives. We went with the Grand Touring AWD model with the Bose / Moonroof and the Power Liftgate packages. We both find this vehicle very fun to drive and cannot wait to take it on our first road trip.

  Good car, Horrible tires - 2010 Mazda CX-9
  By njpathfinder28 - September 6 - 7:40 am

  I like my CX-9. Except for two things. No fog lights on any models below the GT. I dont like the Zenon headlights and those low profile, 20 inch rims are bad news. So I have an expensive vechicle the doesnt even come with fog lights. Second major problem is Mazdas choice of Bridgestone Dueler tires. They are NOT all season radials. I drove on an inch of snow and the car couldnt hold the road! So I have a AWD car that is dangerous in the snow!

  A beautiful and sophisticated SUV - 2010 Mazda CX-9
  By Terrific Car! - August 12 - 7:50 pm

  We have owned the car for just over 2 months and it so far has been a terrific automobile. The build, and performance is excellent and it seems to be far superior to our previous SUV, Ford Freestyle. When I first drove it I was in awe of its appearance, handling and performance. It is just a very beautiful SUV with a large WOW factor. I am glad I purchased it for my wife.

  CX9 Sport with lots of Bells & Whistles! - 2010 Mazda CX-9
  By Jules from SoCal - August 6 - 7:00 pm

  Needed to downsize from a 2007 Chevy Tahoe but still needed third row option. I loved my Tahoe! But did not love the $604 monthly payment! We compared the CX9 to the Pilot and the Acadia. The CX9 Sport had soo many more bells and whistles for a base model! It was a NO BRAINER for us! Bluetooth, roofrack, seat warmers, satellite radio, dual zone heating/cooling, nice dashboard finish, power seats and drives beautifully! The first night I had the CX9 7 of us piled in for my birthday! We all fit comfortably!
