Thanks for the input. I didn't get what I would have liked, but I got more than NADA wholesale for it, which is ok, probably because of the repeat buying record, and ended up slightly above dealer invoice. That being said, "I JUST FELL IN LOVE AGAIN"!! But, don't tell my wife!! GT AWD, Copper Red, with Nav package, and a few other extras!
 
One question I have for you, being a Mazda dealer, the car is so new to the dealership, it came in on Thursday last week, that they did not have the Certificate of Origin on hand, so I couldn't drive off with it Saturday. How long will it take for the dealship to get the CO? The GM at the dealership said that everything should be ready more than likely no later than this coming Tuesday.
 
By the way, my wife thinks the car is very cool! And has already been hitting me up to use it to go to work. Now I really don't think that is quite fair, seeing as though when I bought her her new 05 Tribute last year, I wasn't taking her car!!! I guess I'll have to give in, because she was there when I was writing out the additional deposit check, and didn't have a problem with it. SHE'S THE BOSS, YOU KNOW!!

Guess you'll have to bargain with her, maybe you can alternate, one week you drive the CX7 to work, then next week, she does.

They usually arrive the day before the car arrives...but its not uncommon to arrive a few days afterwards. So they should get it anyday. Enjoy your new CX!!

Just picked up my CX-7 yesterday.
GT AWD Copper Red, with the Tech and Performance Package, and RSA tires.
Only 100 miles on it - but it rides great and feels terrific.
Navigation is cool - but can't figure out how to change the clock ??
Will give MPG as time goes on.

Yeah, I had problems with that too.
 
To set the clock, press the following:
  • NAVI
  • MENU
  • Navigation Setup
  • Calibration
  • Set Clock

    On the interior headliner to the left of the microphone is another sensor that looks like an IR sensor. Does anyone know what this is for?

    I've had my CX-7 for about a week now. I still just absolutely love it.
     
    Just got the MOC and the Lo Jack put in mine yesterday too. The Sound System sounded a little 2D for me .. still does depending on what kind of music I'm listening to. Does not sound all that great with rock but.. with hip hop and R&B.. sounds great.
     
    Love the transmission as well.. 6 speed.. turbo.. wow. For an SUV..it can giddyupandgo pretty nicely. (I used to drive a 305z so.. this new car has alot to live up to. )
     
    After my first test drive .. my wife and I fell in love with it as well. And so far we are very happy with our purchase.

    congrats!
     
    RE your assessment of the sound quality. You didn't specify the source of your music. Just remember that Centerpoint (surround sound) only functions with CDs.

    OH.. yeah.. the source of the music was a CD.
     
    Groups such as Disturbed, Three Doors Down, Linkin Park.. all kinda sounded 2D. Other group such as Outkast, E40, Sean Paul and Nelly sounded real good and had an overall 3D sound to it and overall better sound quality.
