Since I'm a total newbie when it comes to buying a card, I was wondering if there was any tips (on what to look for, things to ask, what I should be expecting etc.) you might have for me for during the pre-sales visit/discussion (and maybe even beyond)?

TIA!

if you dont mind the price difference.... get the AWD. i bought the PRO before xmas... till now im still rationalizing my decision hehe

According to SA of Mazda Makati, replacement will be made if lubricating did not solved the problem.

Good Day, ask ko lng po kung resolved na ung issue nyo sa "tok" sound, I also experienced the same issue thanks

Same here. Make sure the mileage isn't more than 30. They do test drive the unit before releasing it but it shouldn't be more than that otherwise they should explain to you or better yet get a different unit. FYI the i-stop battery of CX-5 costs around 15k. Hope that helps.

Nice. Mazda 3 and CX-5. Parang magkapatid lang tong dalawa eh... Nalilito tuloy ako kung kukuha na ako ng Mazda 3 or mag hihintay ng bagong CX-5...

Wait for the new CX-5 if you need the height. Otherwise they're pretty similar

Same here. I am experiencing the "tok" sound when I turn the steering wheel fully. What could be causing it?

My car's odometer is only 1,300km.

Kung di nga lang mabaha sa amin at di nag tatravel ng malayo (100-150km/week) I'd go for Mazda 3 eyes closed! haha. Thanks sa tip sir. Sa tingin ko 4th Quarter pa darating ang bago na CX-5 based sa timeline nila sa Mazda 3 when it was released in US around June 2013, sa Pinas April 2014 pa dumating.
