Johnathon is Mr. Mazda hands down! It was because of him on why I pulled the trigger on a 2021 CX5 GTR!! I love this car and it drives like a dream. Thanks Johnathon and continue the great work !!
Great video. I just bought the CX-9 carbon edition awd and I love it. I traded in my 2015 Mazda 6 and I can’t believe how much faster the CX-9 is than the 6. I’ve gotten several compliments.
I love CX 9 for power, handling and roomy. It is just right size. I keep third row seats down for cargo space but when I need it, it's worth it. Happy with 2022 CX 9. Done break in with 1000 mi. Now it's super smooth ride.
I like that color as well. When my appointment for test drive comes I hope they have more colors than black and white. Covid has made looking for a new car a real pain.
I wish the cx5 had more cargo space. It would be an instant buy for me, but thinking of the 9 even if I don’t need the bigger car just for more cargo space
Well now very interesting vid again... sadly I don’t think the carbon edition is coming to Australia... at least the Dealers aren’t saying much. The red leather is sensational but the only option I’ve seen it in here is the anniversary model... which you can get in your choice of colour: as long as it’s white. Cheers - kevin
@@JSS yes I agree with you jon. I felt the white was just too generic for the anniversary model. I’m told the 2021 builds are arriving in Oz in around 3 - 4 weeks and I understand Mazda is offering a couple of interesting configurations in the lower spec models but for the higher specs, including the akera (signature), the only appreciable change is the infotainment system. At this point it appears the carbon edition isn’t coming to Australia and the red Nappa leather isn’t an available option (at least yet). As you may recall I actually started this Mazda CX-5/CX8 journey around the middle of last year but when I learnt about the 2021 specs from your vids I decided to wait until they got to Australia - sadly it’s taken nearly 7 months for that to happen and and after watching all your regular vids these past months I’m already busting at the seams in anticipation of getting my new Mazda thanks to you!!! so I reckon trying to hang out for another year in the hope Mazda might offer the perfect pick of trim and colours is just going to be far too much for my excitement levels to contain🤪🤪🤣🤣. As you know, thanks to your vids and your enthusiasm and belief in Mazda this will be a huge change for me as I switch brands (Honda owner for 25 years) and I switch to an suv after almost a lifetime in sedans. Now it’s come down to choosing between the CX5 and the CX8 and picking the colour!! Cheers - kevin
Hi Johnathon since joining your channel I’ve learned so much and fell in love with Mazda and currently shopping for the CX-9. Do you have advices for me as a new customer and which trimmed level I should focus on?
I prefer your RED interior( one of the BEST colors of RED in a vehicle I’ve seen- especially compared too Toyota’s 😖. Do either of these have a good lease deal? My lease on a VW Tiguan is up this year & have possible interest.).......I really like the CX-9
There is definitely a different feel from the bigger size. I can’t quantify right now if it’s better or just different. The noise I can’t say. I may do a comparative test drive vid to see.
Noticed one of these on the website of a Mazda dealership close to where I live, and it appears the stitching on the back seats is red, as it is throughout. Strange that they did this one in brown... 🤷🏻♂️
Recently bought the CX 9 Kuro edition here in Canada......best purchase ever, it's a beauty of a car. Mazda makes beautiful cars. Great video. 👍🏾
Awesome! Enjoy the Kuro
@@JSS thanks! 🙂

I picked the CX-9! Love the extras! Paid $44000. I love it! It looks more stronger than the Cx-5.
It’s does add a little beef to the CX-9 with the wheels and grill. 💙
Of course, it is more than 10k more expensive
Hi Jonathan, you made a great video again. I give you a big like.
Thank you very much!
I love your videos, they look amazing with hdr
Thank you! I’m impressed by the technology also
Another great video mate 👍🏻🦘🇦🇺
If Mazda brings the cx30 turbo Downunder I’ll trade my 3 Astina hatch as that would suit me only.
Awesome! I hope it comes for you
I like that color as well. When my appointment for test drive comes I hope they have more colors than black and white. Covid has made looking for a new car a real pain.
CX-9 for the features, but definitely CX-5 for the overall styling in my opinion.
I’m a CX5 man also!
I wish the cx5 had more cargo space. It would be an instant buy for me, but thinking of the 9 even if I don’t need the bigger car just for more cargo space
CX9 has a little more cargo. The CX50 will be a game changer because of the added cargo. Of course it’s a year and a half away 🥴

😂 I am so surprised they chose white for the anniversary. I would’ve thought you would’ve had a Kuro edition. Maybe you’ll be surprised next year.

I’m getting a CX-5 Carbon - do you recommend adding the roof rails? Does it look better with or without? I like the way they look on the CX-9. Thanks!
Without
Great stuff!
Carbons are awesome!

The Carbon CX-9 has a phenomenonal lease compared to other Mazda vehicles. I think it’s almost the same payment as the CX-5.
is cx9 quieter than cx5?
does longer wheelbase contribute to more comfortable drive?
thanks

Love the color!
It’s wonderful!

Yes, an obvious error. We have ordered the correct seat cover 🤦🏻♂️
@@JSS Hey, it happens. Glad Mazda is going to take care of it for you! 👍
I love the 2021 Mazda CX-9 Grand Touring 7seaters.. better🧔🏻👍🏼here in Brunei 🇧🇳
7 seaters are great if you need them.
Does it have heated side mirrors?
The CX-5 does not and the CX-9 does.
Hey man. Sooo my friend wants to come with me to meet you lol its funny huh?
Road trips with friends are the best! Give me a heads up and I’ll show you around.
I want the cx9
Great choice!
I wanna big car but I don’t have kids lol
😂 That’s great! You will love the drive even by yourself.
no SiriusXM? deal-breaker!!!
Yes, the CX-5s have done something weird this year on some models.
