I know it's a little late for this, but the CX-7 is Junk. i just traded mine in (2yrs old) and what a lemon. It was in the shop so often that it was a running joke at my work. I loved the handling and the zoom zoom but it just wasn't worth the consistant issues. Some of the issues we intermitant that they(dealer) wouldn't even do anything, and that was at 3 different dealers. Anyways I traded it in yesterday for a 2010 Edge, and I love how much more comfortable the Edge is. I bought the limited and WOW is all I can say, I love all the toy's that most imports miss the mark on, mind you, the imports tend to have better fit and finnish. The brakes on the Edge so far are a the biggest let down compaired to the CX-7 but i can adjust, maybe a replacement of the pads and or rotors would be a big benifit? anyone try it yet? any info would be appreciated. Mileage tends to be close but at least I don't need premium (due to the turbo) anymore. Turbo lag was bad, especially if you decide to go for that "yellow" light.
Overall I did like the styling and the zoom zoom of the CX-7 and probably would have kept it if it were not for all the issues.
Only had the Edge for a day now so we will see how it goes, but it does feel like more of an upgrade compaired to the CX-7. (oooh and the leather heated seats.....where have u been all my life? I love them)
Just my 2c
