Looks good though Dan. Mazda seems to have got the styling pretty right with their cars. If only they had a AWD sedan that could dish some chop...

Umm... how 'bout the Mazda 6 MPS Turbo? Dunno about the 0-100 figures but from what I've heard they got sum grunt, yeh?

IF I do recall, memory serves a certain person at a particular AHG day could not believe his eyes with how well a certain AWD Sedan went around the track!

Where's the turbo and/or diesel option??

It needs a turbo BAD

Diesel is coming next year for the CX-7 I believe

So is the fuel consumption as woeful as the CX-7?
Two guys here at work have CX-7's and their big complaint is how thirsty they are....

Worse

13L to 100k's

But then again, it is 1000000 times better than a territory

So whats the purpose of this car? It looks like one of those four wheel drives for people who have no intention of going off tarmac.

"The new Mazda CX-9 uses 13 litres per 100km, making it thirstier than both the Kluger and Territory, as well as the new Subaru Tribeca seven-seater, also launched this week"
