  By SammyHagar - October 16 - 6:03 pm

  Shopped and shopped - viewed and drove them all in the CX-9 class, the Mazda CX-9 was the winner hands down. White is the new Black when choosing color - The Mazda white is awesome when viewed on a sunny day. 60 months 0%, Owner Loyalty Rebate $500, $100 under invoice - pretty good deal - $3000 - under MSRP

  Zoom all the way - 2010 Mazda CX-9
  By leadfoot - October 5 - 4:33 am

  Ive had my 2010 Grand Touring CX-9 since Dec 2009. This vehicle is definitely fun and comfortable. I live in the country and take the back roads at more than optimum speeds and the vehicle handles great. Ive owned a Subaru with AWD and that was a bit better on the handling. Drive 110 miles each day and my back loves the comfortable seats. Ive used the heated seats with no problems but Ill refrain until they are fixed. Few economy is great. I get 21.9. Not bad for cruising down the road.

  Loving my new 2010 CX-9 GT! - 2010 Mazda CX-9
  By FormerH3Owner - September 24 - 10:00 am

  I just picked up my Crystal White Pearl Mica GT last night. I LOVE this vehicle! My last two rides were H3s, which cost the same if not more then this beauty. I now realize how much I overpaid for my H3s after seeing all you get for your money with Mazda! I cant think of anything else I would want in a vehicle. It gets great gas mileage for the size (avg. 20 mixed), seats 7 when needed, the exterior and interior remind me of a Lexus, love the 20 inch wheels, rides like it is on glass - and all for way under $40k!

  Saying Goodbye to Minivans - 2010 Mazda CX-9
  By BigDaddy85 - July 8 - 11:20 pm

  We have been driving minivans for about 20 years raising the kids. The kids are grown, but we still need occasional room to haul cargo and up to six passengers comfortably. The cx-9 is a blast to drive. Great Bose stereo system. Solid handling. Many nice features. We bought the awd as we do like to go to the mountains and make long trips in the winters. 95% of the time the fwd would be fine. The difference in fuel economy was minimal, so we decided on the awd.

  Great Value & Still Zooming in Raleigh - 2010 Mazda CX-9
  By Tearlach - March 28 - 2:00 am

  After 8 months: best combination of driving experience, braking, interior space & comfort, technology and safety amongst Highlander, 4Runner, Pilot, Sante Fe,Outback, Tribeca, Vera Cruz & other Asian SUV/CUVs w/ AWD evaluated (Asian quality/value bias after owning 20+ domestic, Euro & lately Asian vehicles). A nearly perfect family of 5 transport design w/ generous 2nd row and a 3rd row even adults could fit into in a pinch - and still have some cargo room. Not there isnt decent competition, but the steering, decent acceleration & AWD, excellent brakes and low road noise compared to even pricier CUVs are impressive. Drive of the CX-9 to others considered or you will be short changed.

  Very delighted owner - 2010 Mazda CX-9
  By Salmod89 - February 15 - 2:00 am

  We bought this car after testing several others like the Highlander and Traverse. The former lacks cargo space behind the third row and this third row is intended for children or small adults only. The later has its seats on the second and third rows too close to the floor that it makes it uncomfortable for long trips. We cannot be more pleased with our choice, its riding and performance are awesome, feels solid and its interior and exterior satisfy our taste. Weve got so far 23 mpg, mainly on highways.

  CX-9 Sport Model - 2010 Mazda CX-9
  By galo - December 21 - 10:16 am

  After driving it for only 1 week, my wife absolutely loves it. It is stylish and elegant, very quiet ride and comfortable. The 3rd seat is what sold me, plenty of leg room for an adult, same as the 2nd row. Although I think Mazda could have dressed up the interior with more chrome pieces, I still like the way it looks, I feel that the CX-9 is more ergonomic than other crossovers. We looked at GMC Acadia, Chevy Traverse, Honda Crosstour, Hyundai SantaFe and Toyota Venza and none appealed to us as much as the CX-9. I definatelly recommend it.

  great car - 2010 Mazda CX-9
  By fred - November 12 - 6:16 am

  I traded my Mercedes R350 on a new Mazda CX9 Sport; what a value! Even the base level is well optioned, including heated seats. I added leather as a dealer installed option which was well worth it because the quality is much higher than the factory hides and it is less expensive that upgrading to the Touring model. My Mazda rides and drives like a dream and the styling is awesome. The cargo room with the seats folded down is enough for furniture and unlike my Mercedes you dont have to remove the headrests to put the seats down. If you are in the market for a 7 passenger, AWD vehicle, this is the one!

  The best - 2010 Mazda CX-9
  By ZOOMX2GUY - November 8 - 4:50 am

  I thought I will never have the same driving experience I had when I bought my first BMW 5 series and then I got a CX9 this month and WOW is all I can say! Its like Im so excited driving it that I dont care where to go or how far the destination is because this vehicle is so much fun to drive. Im not sure why other reviewers will comment on the MPG on this one but all I can say is that DO YOUR RESEARCH before buying a car.

  What to expect with buying/owning theCX9 - 2010 Mazda CX-9
  By Steve - September 28 - 9:56 pm

  Well this is my first SUV. I have driven full sized Tahos and what nots and they are comfortable but the gas mileage always kept me away. This CX9 is very snazzy. It feels fancier than you would expect. There is lots of room and it is comfortable. Plenty of power and a lot of cool gadgets. Im very pleased with it. Its fun to drive and you dont see many on the road. The bad things include: Of course the gas mileage we average 17.5 but have gotten as low as 15.5 which doesnt sound that bad till you need to fill up again after 300mi. The nav is beautiful but kinda stinks. You cant make adjustments on the fly we usually just use the iphone. The heated seats you can barely feel but we still love it
