Do you prefer/want/need to have physical buttons in your Mazda for basic features such as the AC, or you'll be fine with a touchscreen only?

There's no option for poll, so just type one of the two:

1. "Physical buttons"
   
2. "Touchscreen"

Basically a brand new car. Barely use the back seat and just discovered the lining completely off

Probably the closest thing to a brand new car Ill ever buy, only 16 000km.

Usually I look at older models to find the right combination of what Im looking for, but these finally came in the right price range and I couldnt pass on that one.

I was interested in getting a Mazda cx5 because it seems like a perfect suv to own. My only issue is that I heard the second row isn’t too spacious and that these cars “melt”?? I’m from tx so I really need a spacious suv under 50k that’s going to hold up. Any recommendations?

Traded previous 6 for a BMW 3 series, never was really happy with that. Now back to my dream car.

Just had the windows tinted.

So been looking at the cx70 for awhile and today finally test drove one and was very happy with it much beater then the 23 Santa fe I own so went it came to the numbers I lease my cars and so basically I would put 4000 down and they came back at 540 a month or right around there just not sure what y’all think of that please comment cause not to sure what todo

Proud new owner of a 2026 CX-70 3.3l Preferred

Guys I’m a 22 year old with no family to help with these kinda things. This is what I narrowed down my search too, please help me choose by tomorrow morning!

All CX30s:

2024 Select CPO — $25,000 / 18,655 mi
white with black fabric seats

2024 Select Sport — $24,800 / 13,082 mi
black with black leather seats

2023 Preferred — $24,000 / 23,232 mi
black with black leather seats

2023 Turbo Premium — $23,500 / 47,481 mi
white with black leather seats

These are all OTD prices that can’t be negotiated further. I live in the south where it’s hot pretty much 9 months of the year so I’d prefer white but also hot is hot so IDK how much car color matters in that respect. Black looks super sleek and beautiful to me but it shows all dirt, scratches, swirls, dust, and pollen… while white looks pretty even when it’s not freshly washed.

This is the ranking AI gave me after feeding it the CarFax for each vehicle and OTD price from the dealers and the ranking was extremely close between the top 3 with the fourth option being at the bottom of a larger 10 car list. I’m just having a hard time listening to it though because I cant get the color off my mind and preference for leather seats. I truly don’t care about stuff like a moonroof or power seats that much. What would you guys do?

I often catch myself looking back at her as I walk away.

How long will it be till I stop doing this?

The night I drove her home from the car lot.

The infotainment in my 2021 6 is so terribly slow it takes a minute or two to boot up and detect android auto. Sometimes when it detects I have to press play 6-10 times on my phone before I get any sound or I have to unplug it and plug it back in. Cable is an anker powerline 2 USB 3.1 Gen 2.

I recently rented a 2021 Honda CRV and it detected and played android auto from the same phone in a few seconds, different cable though.

I have a couple of issues currently and Mazda customer support is no help:

1. When Spotify is connected via Bluetooth, it will not stay connected. For example, if I go home and text someone then get in my car again, I have to go to my phone and open Spotify to get it to play again.

2. Because of this issue, I took it to the dealership where they reset it to factory settings. Since then, my car will no longer update without a subscription and Spotify will not play at all via CarPlay. Before the factory reset, I had no problems with either of these things.

I’ve tried a brand new Apple cord, that is NOT the issue.

Any help would be appreciated.

Let me first say I’ve always been a Honda guy. I’ve had 7 Hondas, to put it precisely. I wanted to get another for my next vehicle, but one day at work we got a rental, and it was a 2024 Mazda3 Sport hatch, and oh my god, was I geeking over it. I mean, that trash transmission wasn’t pleasant, but everything else about it had me giggling like a little girl every time I got in it.
Then I started dating someone who has an ’08 Mazda6, and I drive it sometimes, and I began to think that maybe Mazdas aren’t that bad. I mean, I’ve always wanted a Miata, but who hasn’t wanted one of those micro drift monsters? But I started feeling something for Mazda.
A few months go by, and my Civic started to not be doing so good. She’s seen a lot of road, reaching 260k, and it began to look like I didn’t have much longer with her. I didn’t want to kill my Civic, but I wanted to retire her and just take time to fix the things that needed to be fixed without putting more miles on her.
Everything changed when the condenser fan hit the radiator and the rear main seal started leaking. I knew I would need to find something within a day or two since I drive about 800 miles a week.
I looked on Facebook, and of course it was showing me nothing but Hondas and Mazdas, and I had to make a choice. I wasn’t looking for anything special, just something decent, not bad on gas, and well maintained.
That’s when I found this beauty.
Say hello to my first Mazda, the 2006 Mazda3i, coming in with the manual transmission and an aftermarket sunroof of all things. She’s had two owners. The first one had her until 2025. She’s been maintained, taken care of, and garage kept her whole life. He stopped driving her because he decided to rack up a bunch of DUIs and couldn’t. So in 2020, she was garaged until 2025. Then an older man bought her and drove her to church and the grocery store. His truck broke down, and he needed another for work and decided to part ways.
That’s where I came in and am now the new proud owner.
There are only two issues wrong with her, and I am 100% sure you all can’t guess. 👀 The engine mounts are bad, and the fuel pump is weak on start. That’s it!
Still looking for a Mazda Discord. I don’t really jump on Reddit that much, so let me know!
The only thing I’ve done is update all the bulbs with LEDs, I got rid of the god awful radio, and swapped out the oem shift knob.

Just had some PPF put on the front end of my new 2026 Miata, and the detailer pointed out this paint defect on the trunk lid.

Is this something that Mazda would cover under warranty? Under 300 mi on the car, bought it about a month ago. Thanks!

Does anybody have a video walking through the replacement of the Center high mount stop light? I swear there does not exist a single video for it. I know there exists reading guides but I’d prefer a video if possible. My lens has somehow cracked and you have to replace the whole unit to fix it. Wondering if it’s a moderately easy replacement or if I should just shell out the $300 to have a local dealership do it. Thanks

I’m handy. I enjoy wrenching on my older vehicles and generally do my own maintenance. This being a ‘23 tho, should I do it myself? Is there any reason I cant or anything to look out for? Looking for some guidance. Thanks in advance.
