2008 Mazda CX-7 Reviews, Pricing & Specs
What owners say
"Overall, owners of the 2008 Mazda CX-7 are quite satisfied with their rides. They particularly enjoy the car's handling, comfort, and performance aspects, especially the turbocharged engine. However, many reviewers highlighted concerns about subpar gas mileage and expensive repairs as drawbacks."
I love the heated leather seats, the AWD is great for the rain or the snow. Plenty of cargo room for road trips with the family and the car is just good looking all around. Great design and very dependable.
May 18, 2012Really happy with my car. It's a perfect size with tons of cargo space for my job. Sits at a nice height, not being too big/tall. Great handling, drives like a car. Have had it for about a year and a half and really enjoyed it. Never put snow tires on and it handled fine in the bad winter weather. Very comfortable sitting in the front and the back seats. Easy to drive with almost no blind spots. Could be better on gas!
January 11, 2012Fairly good fuel economy for a crossover/SUV. Nice interior, though a little short on storage. Stereo is pretty good (Bose, cd changer). A few modern amenities are missing, but corrected in '09 model. Suffers from turbo lag from a dead stop, but makes up for it once it gets going. Nice acceleration for passing. Leather seats are quite comfortable. Not the quietest interior, but not too noisy either. Overall I give it an "A-/B+". I think I would give the '09 model a firm "A-", maybe better with Grand Touring version (navigation system, Auto climate control, etc.).

November 21, 2008my car is brillant it handles brilliantly and the 2.3 litre turbo engine gives decent power and torgue the handling is amazing and the ownership costs i paid 11,800 pounds for my car and the car is fun to drive
July 4, 2011This car is RAW with few creature comforts witch focuses more on handling and performance. Hitting the twisties won't dissapoint you just feeling the way it grips makes you thing that the tires are melting on the road. This car truly is a drivers car and a true Rally legend.
June 27, 2009Awesome acceleration, braking and handling. Expensive repair costs. Interior & exterior styling was awesome. Good gas mileage. This car was definitely fun to drive. Gotta say Zoom Zoom! A 2.3 Liter Turbo Charged Engine with inter cooler. There was a lot of possibilities for this cross-over.
August 29, 2010My one line summary just about says it all. It's a great smaller car considering I traded in my Cadilac DTS in for the CX-7. It gets great gas mileage too!
May 13, 2008i love driving this car, for a crossover you would never be able to tell your driving something so big, its nimble, has a decent amount of power, gas mileage is terrible but worth the price epa estimated 17-23 mpg.
November 17, 2011Like a wagon but nicer. Better on gas mileage
March 1, 2021The Mazda is a good car. the acceleration is slow. like that it had a cd player.
