I remember one of the Mazda sales guys mentioned that even the 2.0L 2WD variant will have the extra cost "Soul Red" color soon.

ang ganda ser!, btw binisita ako ng friend ko with a Red CX-5...mga katanungan lang....

* may way na ba para bumilis pag read/and play ng MP3 audio's sa 16GB (loaded with about 9GB) songs? ang tagal mag-basa... dapat siguro palitan logic ng Radio na may memory sya, if detected nya na scanned nya na 'to before....dapat next event ay PLAY na lang agad.

* yung inner Reflector, para saan ba 'yun? puede ba gawing head-lamp? kahit naka Low-Beam & High-Beam puro yung Projectors lang gumagana....
medyo bitin pa kasi sa Road-Surface illumination lalo na pag Gabi/Umuulan/on Asphalt road...

Regarding dun sa USB, ang gamit ko kc limang USB na tig-4gb bawat isa depende sa genre ng music na gusto ko pakinggan so no problem with the reading. And guys correct me if I'm wrong, the inner reflector ay yun ang day running lights (DRL), so far I haven't drove it na malakas ang buhos ng ulan mostly light rain lang kaya di ko pansin na kulang pa illumination though para sa akin ay nasisilaw mga kasalubong ko since there are times they flash their highbeam thinking cguro naka-high beam ako.

I test drove both the CX5 and Mazda 6 and was impressed. Got the chance to try out the I-stop feature too. Been back reading this thread to help me decide which one to get. I was hoping the CX5 has the I-stop feature. Until someone mentioned here that they're bringing in one with the I-stop, leather seats and reverse camera. Went back to the dealer and asked about it. Yes, they said that's it's true. Although no date yet given, but definitely coming to our shores soon. Now the wait begins. I was asking for the price but they can't commit yet. I guess with the added features for the upcoming CX5 variant, this is going to be very attractive and hard to resist.

Do you mean for the 2.0L variant? Sana di ganun ka taas ang price hike or wag nila iphase-out ung base trim.

CX-5 owners, what are some details you like and dislike in your car? Let me begin...

Likes
1. External shape - I enjoy looking at the sporty shape and the 19" mags look good on the car
2. Parking aids - clear back up camera plus 8 sensors for full coverage
3. I-stop - not yet sure how effective it is for fuel consumption but I almost forget that it's activating which is a good point
4. Headlights - adaptive HID seems brighter than usual head lamps
5. Tonneau cover - since it's attached to the rear door, not having the need to pull in/out is a nice convenience

Dislikes
1. Ambient lighting - could use more as many switches aren't lighted like sunroof, interior light, power door/window switches (except driver window), etc
2. Entertainment system - Bose sound is okay, but phone and USB music multimedia system could have been better
3. Door button opener - since there's already a start/stop switch, why not include a door button opener so I don't have to take out the keys from my pocket
4. Auto central lock switch - even my old Altis had one

Confirmed with my SA. Yung price daw nung bagong 2.0 variant is 1,455,000 with I-stop, leather seats and back up camera. Sulit na ba yun mga sir? Available na din daw yung Soul Red sa 2.0 additional 16,800 lang daw.

Sulit na sulit considering the previous one SRP was 1,452,000 no backup cam and fabric seats......for 2k more you get I-stop, backup & leather seats :clap:
