The 2023 Mazda CX-5 Carbon Edition Is An Amazing Value For The Price

#mazda #mazdacx5 #cx5
It's definitely a lot sleeker than Mazda used to be.

​@AlphaShark any concerns with Mazda manufactured in Mexico or should we stick with Japan model???

[@Gr3atD4y.4]

Faith and works goes hand and hand! It complements faith into action. What Scripture says about faith and works? 1 Thessalonians 1:3 We remember before our God and Father your work produced by faith, your labor prompted by love, and your endurance inspired by hope in our Lord Jesus Christ James 2:14-2 Faith Without Works Is Dead 14 What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him? 15 If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food, 16 and one of you says to them, “Depart in peace, be warmed and filled,” but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body, what does it profit? 17 Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead. 18 But someone will say, “You have faith, and I have works.” Show me your faith without [a]your works, and I will show you my faith by [b]my works. 19 You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe-and tremble! 20 But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is [c]dead? 21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the altar? 22 Do you see that faith was working together with his works, and by works faith was made [d]perfect? 23 And the Scripture was fulfilled which says, “Abraham believed God, and it was [e]accounted to him for righteousness.” And he was called the friend of God. 24 You see then that a man is justified by works, and not by faith only. Blessings to all

just to update, i did buy one back in march and it has been pretty awesome!! @@AlphaShark

[@StirlingMossDrives]

This story is beautiful, My friend and I went to church before I helped him purchasing this car. We didn’t know this was the car we were going to get. The sales man just pulled one out of nowhere and we fell in love. Sales man was so nice, best dealer ship experience ever. This is the first review I’ve ever seen in my life that had a bible reading in the end. God is so good! God bless. If anyone wants to know the dealership it is Colonial Mazda in Danbury CT.

Thank you brother

[@America1st69]

As far as I'm concerned Mazda makes the best looking vehicles

[@alb0zfinest]

Nah, Mercedes, Volvos (in the front), Lincoln, Audi, Bently and a couple of others look better than Mazda. Mazda makes decent cars for the price point, but even in terms of appearance it most definitely is not at the top.

Just because the competition is using 8 speed transmissions doesn’t make them better. I would choose a 6 speed any day.

[@adamg.1845]

Currently leasing a 2021 cx5 preferred pkg which at the time came with both the power lift gate and the Bose. Now I guess the preferred only comes with liftgate but not Bose. Does the base sound system suck? If so I’d have to get the carbon edition right? Looking to get out of this lease and into a new cx5 Thank you! Great video

[@timothyadams3951]

Been eyeing one of these lately I really like the car and it’s look. Not too fancy but a little luxurious feel and a couple bells and whistles. My only concern is the leg room in the back. I had a Buick that is similar in size shape obviously the encore their competition. I loved that car for its same moderate luxurious feel, but I hated how small it was! This seems to be slightly roomier I believe. Overall great video and review. I will say the real treat for me was the scripture at the end straight outta Gods word. I was blessed by that and appreciate it. I subscribed.

[@danielpark7821]

Not a Christian but I did appreciate the bit of scripture at the end. It’s always good to educate myself and who knows maybe I will find faith myself.

[@AlphaShark]

I know the screen is a dealbreaker for a lot of people! I understand their reasoning, but I don't love it!

[@bohofoto6929]

We test drove one of these at a local dealer (Arkansas). When the salesman opened up the drivers door I had to step back because the smell of smoke hit my face. I laughed it off, made a comment that the previous owner was certainly rude to do that. I then opened up the back door to see how roomy the back seat legroom was. That’s when then the smell got waaaay worse. It was the distinct odor of weed. Ugh, just ugh. So we opened the windows and went ahead and took it for a test drive. While test driving I poked around as my husband drove. Sure enough there was a receipt in the glove box for some sort of weed shop in Maryland. Salesman reassured me that they could get the odor out with an ozone machine. As he was talking, I noticed that the door frame had an Impounded sticker on it. I burst out laughing because it all made sense. The car was registered in Virginia. Visiting weed shops in Maryland. White powder I had assumed was baby formula on the backseat. No. We discussed it that evening and we weren’t getting what we decided was obviously a mule car for our son to drive. The K-9 units would be following him down the street …. especially if there was product hidden behind door panels or elsewhere that they didn’t find when they impounded it. Nice car other than that.

[@AlphaShark]

That was at a regular Mazda dealer?

[@bohofoto6929]

Yes but their used car lot. This one appeared to have come from the auction. We’ve noticed a tendency in our local dealers to forego the cleaning of the vehicle with the ones that sell easily. We’ve test driven a few at 3 different dealers that you could tell they fully expected us to clean it up ourselves. My husband and son are looking at one in Norman, OK today and it was clearly detailed in the photos.

Turbos have a funny habit of failing and becoming an expensive repair. No thanks. Too much experience with them.

[@jamesbennett6343]

Slight correction, apple car play and android auto actually are touch capable on the CE. It doesn’t work when the car is in motion by default but that behavior can be changed in the menu.

[@RealKevGotEm]

I don’t know if I want the black with red trim or the red interior. Edited: I would get the back cause the red is starting to make me think it’s a wine color which I don’t like

Does this model have wireless CarPlay?

[@dystopia-usa]

It's definitely the sweet-spot trim level, if you aren't into potentially-more-problematic turbo engines & want a moodier/sportier looking CX-5. I prefer the ones without the zany red/wine seats though. Shame that it doesn't have separate, dedicated LED DRL's though, & instead uses the projector headlight as its DRL's (lame, lame, lame Mazda).

[@lottieblawrence]

Looks great but I wonder if a black headliner would have been more fitting for the carbon edition

Just ordered a 2023 Carbon Edition yesterday. Should be picking it up in a few weeks. Heard that most cx5 carbon are not being shipped with power lift gates as well as the Bose sound system due to chip shortages. Is this true? Dealer never communicated that with me. Great video!

I just got one mine yesterday!! And it does not have the power lift gate or the bose! It's says on the sticker bose and lift gate standard credit and it took off 600 dollars!! My dealer did ask me if was ok and I'm fine without them!! Would have been nice though!!!
