Hi everyone, Last Saturday I ordered a Sport Nav Auto in Deep Crystal Blue with Stone leather, expected delivery 3 weeks, down sizing from CX5 which I loved, so hoping for similar experience although I know I'm losing a few features such as self dimming mirror, armrest, duel climate control etc. but hey ho I can live with this! Can't wait!

Welcome to the forum Nick. I did the opposite due to size limitations but absolutely loved the car. The aircon controls never bothered me and if you get the armrest you will be much better off for clutter space. I think a CX5 mirror would fit but was too tight to cough up for one. The normal gentex mirror off amazon will not.

Thanks for the welcome and info anchorman! The duel air con and mirror I can live with but may consider armrest for reason you mention although not sure how much this will cost to have fitted! I'm having front parking sensors fitted @ £300 (ouch!)
Enjoy your CX5!

You can buy the armrest and fit it yourself

Thanks Rockposer, that looks a good alternative, have you got one fitted?

I've got an official one fitted as part of my deal with the dealer.

I saw someone over on the other CX-3 forum with one fitted.
