They consider themselves as the "premium" japanese. Look at all their car prices you'll know. Especially the puny CX-3 at that ridiculous price. I wouldn't buy any of Mazda cars, interior too cramp for me compared to equivalent competitors.

I observed the tyre pressure was as high as 48 psi, lower to their recommendation 32 psi, but i find 34 psi is ideal.

Heard from few coating companies that Mazda car painting work is lousy and thin layers . Not sure if it is true ?

I was considering a CX-5 and a 2016 CR-V about a few months ago. Then the old-age thinking of Honda being a better brand and stronger SUV win the day which swayed me towards the CR-V. Then the new design of the 2017 made it a no brainer. And I was shocked to see that the answer to the new CR-V was a more expensive, slightly different CX-5. I think Mazda going to face a lot of challenge this year

I think it's all depending what you want, like myself, bigger space and Honda Sensing are utmost important as it's a family and weekend car. I really love the handling of Tiguan and I believe CX5 is excel in that too.

CX5 handling better and more agile but cabin space is very limited.

During my 5 years ownership of the CX5 I have zero problem, sold it for 80K, slightly more than 50% resale value after 5 years, not bad la.....

The new CRV I have is noisy, and seems heavy when accelerate but the reliability, durability, resale and spacious cabin is what I want.

Anyone knows where can find running board at good price please share....thanks.

whats the price outside

around 6xx to 7xx?

Only the 2.0 come with good year tyres. 1.5 t variant toyo tyres. Toyo not bad compare other market get bridgestone dueler. Dealers will not do the swapping. U can trade in ur tyres on outside shop once u get u car. Once u clock miles with ur new tyre the value will go down. Going for michelin primacy suv or latitue touring?

The cheapest I know it's RM450 including installation. U planning to bring in some too? ;-)

One of the owner in CRV club got his from Top Garage in Cheras. Price very reasonable but I'm not sure about the quality la. U can try google them up

no la,

450 our cost also more than that

I want something quiet. How's Toyo? Any recommendation for Michelin tyres that's quiet? And the price ?

Had very good experience with Michelin Primacy 3 ST, very quiet. They used to have Primacy SUV but I can't find it on their Malaysia website anymore, not sure if it has been discontinued in local market.

Why this car reverse camera so blur... I too get used to my old car which has very clear view.

There are three level of zoom. I admit the closest level is blur, but the one that show far off is pretty good. Maybe I'm just easy to please.

Lyn and dear Paul had a falling out couple years back. See here...

Interesting observation... Been looking for such an owner's viewpoint. From CX-5 to new CRV.

You do sound easy to please.. It's not an entirely bad thing.

I think primacy 3ST don't have these size. Primacy SUV still available and latitude touring is more expensive side. U can't go wrong with Michelin as they are quiet tyres.

The resolution on these camera are very low. U can't see clearly the traffic behind when u are backing up, where else my after market camera on my previous car can see clearly. They cut cost on the resolution to make way for 3 angle view.

I'm not always like that but over the years, I tell myself that I should not be spending precious time worrying over little details, which, over time I will not care for anymore. For example, the car is nice now, sure - but after 5 years, I probably don't care if there's a slight nick. And that rear camera is probably the least on my mind now among other things in life. So, why waste these precious time over small matters? It's happier that way, don't you think? Anyway, once a while, I still get bugged but it's a continuous challenge I have to overcome myself

Agree... even my lousy Toyota player has 10times more clarity than CRV one
