I just helped my mom out of a 2008 highlander and into a CX-5 Grand Touring and my goodness that Deep Crystal Blue Mica on Parchment is pretty. A little orange peely but a very pretty color.

But Mazda...those wheels. boo. They don’t match the rest of the design at all.

Totally agree - the new GT wheels are not their best effort. I do like the ones off the previous generation, though.

Kinda like an inverse-Fuchs vibe going on.

Them and Subaru just have terrible wheels. They are all flat with no concave..

I mean, when you have to have flat wheels you’ve got to have flat wheels...but at least make them interesting. The forester ones aren’t bad, the XV ones aren’t bad. The Mazda ones are bad.

Really? Maybe it is because I see them everyday, but I find them just as terrible as the Mazda ones.

Coincidentally Mazda gave inverse fuchs when they designed these wheels.

HFV has no HFV. But somehow has 2 motorcycles > CaptDale - is secretly British 10/19/2017 at 14:56

Eww, I haven’t seen those new wheels yet. Not good.

I hope she likes her CX-5 as much as we like ours.

My 6 is Deep Crystal Blue. It’s a gorgeous color.

We love our CX-5. Will have owned it five years this December and about to crack 50,000 miles.

Based on her past driving habits that will happen for here in about 2.5 years.

We live in a small town and can get from one end of it (where we live) to the other end in less than 20 miles, so we don’t tend to rack up the miles that quickly. My 6 just turned two and barely has 21k on it.
