I'm in the market for a new car and I love the Civic EX-T, but I'm also thinking about a Mazda CX-5 Touring. I've checked our the CRV too, but the CX-5 is just a bit more exciting.
I'm wondering if anyone else has been in the same boat, and what decision was made? I'm torn between the sportier handling of the Civic EX-T and the slightly bigger storage ability of the CX-5 along with the slightly higher and bigger road-view. I also like the the Civic has top notch MPG, while the CX-5 is good but not great. The civic is also a bit cheaper... I currently have an elderly Chevrolet Blazer, so I'm sort of used to SUV/CRV type driving and versatility at this point - but it's not per se fun.
A bit about me - I'm single with no kids and don't do any serious hauling too often, but I do like camping, snowboarding, and mountain biking (I have a bike rack that I can attach to my Blazer's trailer hitch, but I realize I could also get a trunk mounted rack for a Civic).
So has anyone else debated between a Civic and a CX-5 or comparable SUV/CUV? What'd you end up getting and why?
