Unfortunately no. But I was hearing bad things about those anyways... taking 93 octane only, and crappy mileage.Originally Posted by Lt_JWS
It would have been cool though, I have always wanted a turbo vehicle.

Bumping this back up...
Our accord died this morning which is forcing us to buy a new vehicle at least a year before we planned (didn't want a car payment with 3 kids in daycare).
They don't make the CX7 anymore but i'm considering a 6spd manual FWD CX5.... so kind of curious if you're still happy with your purchase?
My two front runners right now are:
Mazda CX-5
Subaru Forrestor
.... i'll be test driving both in the AM.
I'm biased towards Subarus...they're pretty reliable, safe, awesome AWD system, and are pretty fun to drive. However, the Mazda is pretty good too. Definitely test drive both of them!

I've always been a Subaru guy too, but the CX-5 is a nice looking vehicle with good ratings. The 6spd manual FWD version has me interested as well... 35 mpg and easily below $25k out the door. This vehicle is going to fill the void of a 2001 Accord DX (small engine, no power windows, no power locks, no options at all), so anything is a huge step up.
Once the dealerships open up this morning my son and I are going to check out both, get a few quotes and go from there.
Congrats, man... My sis has one like this but hers is blue. Did you get the AWD like I recommended?!?!?!
Negative on the AWD.. I didnt even see that as an option on the several we looked at.
