Blu_Ray_UK2007 Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago Greetings everyone! I am new to Mazda and recently got receipt of a brand new 26 CX-90 Premium Sport. Three vehicles were on my radar: the Jeep Grand Cherokee, the Audi Q7, and the Honda Trailsport/Pilot. They were completely outclassed by the Mazda in every way: handling, power, features, and appearance. Also, I had the opportunity to borrow this car for a 500-mile drive on my recent holiday and I absolutely loved it. Along with the favourable lease price and conditions, that was the deciding factor. I am really pleased with my purchase of a Machine Grey Prem Sport. So, here's what went down: I felt a lot of vibration and the trip was overall bumpy. Two days after returning it to the dealership, I discovered that three of the tires were faulty! I will be replacing the set of Toyotas next week. Until then, I am borrowing a gorgeous CX-90 Prem Plus in rhodium. My car is in perfect working order and I can't wait to get it back. Although I am aware that these vehicles can be finicky, I would prefer to cope with a few problems rather than spend all my time fiddling with my automobile. Just so you know, I sold my 23 Lexus GX460 since it was a boring SUV. Anticipating feedback from this community. Best regards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drummer Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago I am relieved that you were able to resolve the issue with your tires, while I am sorry to hear about it. The fact that you could test drive a CX-90 for an extended period of time is fantastic. I can't believe you traded in your Lexus for a CX-90. Never test drove a Highlander or Grand Highlander, and there weren't any for sale in my area, so I opted against purchasing one. Looking back, I think the ride quality would have been too soft.

Blu_Ray_UK2007 Posted 1 hour ago Author Share Posted 1 hour ago Seems promising; I'll report back next week with the results. The GX460 was a nightmare to drive, and I rarely retain vehicles for more than a few years, so I never had to worry about the GX460 lasting 300,000 miles.

jimmy47785 Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago How intriguing that the CX-90 completely outshone the Q7 after you upgraded from a 23-year-old Lexus. The CX 90 has a number of quarks, including premium features that aren't up to par with Lexus or Audi, but it's aesthetically pleasing and has a leather inside. Though the brown quilted leather interior of my fully-loaded premium turbo S is stunning, I can't help but believe that it's missing a few high-end features found in the Lexus (even at 23MY) and the updated Q7. Guarantee that your software is flashed and updated correctly. It appears to have eliminated most of the peculiarities, but the gearbox is still really jerky; they called it sporty, but it's more like incredibly choppy. Mazda deserves a lot of credit for their exterior styling, which is noticeably more subdued compared to Lexus and the Q7. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
