Where did you DRIVE today?

Nice looking Miata! Matches the NT. You will love it. I enjoy mine. The garage is a wee bit crowded now with four motorcycles, the Miata and the Outback. I may thin the herd come spring. I'll have to wait and see.

Looks just like my wife's 2016 CX-5. She only has 33400 miles on hers. After over 9 years she has had no issues since new. Just normal maint. and changed out the drive belts and a tensioner to go with that. O yea, after 8 years we had to replace the OEM battery. Great little cars.

Ours is a 2016. Has a little over 110k miles on it.
 
I've got an '18 CX5 with 89K, great little cars. My only gripe is the blotchy display on the dash.

I added a Carplay module to my daughter's 2016 CX5. It required PITA disassembly to access the module but the screen was fairly easy to get to.
 
Sue's car is a basic Touring trim with two wheel drive. She did not want any thing fancy just the basics, but did want leather upholstery. So she had the dealer send the car out to have the seats recovered in leather. It came with navigation that she has never learned to use. Although now I do all the driving when we take her car as her (PSP) disease has progress where she no longer can drive safely. The Mazda has been a great car with no issues over the last 9+ years even though it only has 33400 miles on it. Great car for grocery getting and appointments. We did drive it out to California and back a few years ago. Ran great.

Mine has the basic Sport trim. It's got stuff that will take me a while to figure out. But it does go Zoom zoom zoom!
 
I looked at a You Tube vid on replacing the screen and it doesn't look too difficult. My only concern is that working on the interior of an eight year old car is the plastic embrittlement of the trim that has to be removed. It's like working on NT panniers of you catch my drift.

a couple of years ago it looked like my riding days were done. So as a motorcyle replacement of sorts, we went out and picked up a Subaru WRX 6 speed... Very fun to drive, and then as a bonus my aged body decided to come around and I'm still a two wheel rider.
Unfortunatly about 5 months ago a minor scratch turned into a major infection that is still not resolved. (Sheesh!)
So most of my driving the last 5 months has been to the hospital 15 miles away, and home.
