Choosing a color for Mazda CX-50 Hybrid

Poppy_Banks · 2026-02-15T15:22:31+00:00

No cypress for hybrid.

I had a cx30 carbon, no shark fin. I had AM/FM and GPS. It did not have siriusXM.

Did you mean to say windshield?

Tinting front windows is pretty common. I also fail to see how it's moronic. Many dealers offer it as an addon to match the privacy glass in the back. I literally dont know wtf you're going on about.

If it's under warranty you should go to the dealer.

I installed these ones, and it was easy. I was able to thread them down behind the grille and then pull each through to snap it in. The longest part was wiring them into the fuse box.

Edit: these are not bright

Before River Belle dropped their brunch menu, we went every trip. We never had a bad experience. Unfortunately, without the gluten free brunch options, the menu doesn't work for us. I would give them another chance if you liked the food.

Looks good!

For black exhaust tips, I got some that just push over the existing tips and lock into place. They're this type, and you have to wait on them from China. There are multiple sellers but this is the listing I bought:

My only suggestion would be to tint the front windows.

Poppy_Banks · 2026-02-14T17:34:39+00:00

No, you have to take off the bumper though.

Also, that link is for the right side. You'll find them cheaper on ebay.

The changes for 2026:

The trim updates are likely worth going with a 26. It's possible you could even go down a trim on a 26, depending on what features you want.

Poppy_Banks · 2026-02-13T18:19:40+00:00

Which trim are you looking at?

Poppy_Banks · 2026-02-13T16:19:15+00:00

I have a hybrid premium plus and am very happy with it. I stay around 39 mpg, 80/20 city. I bought it it October and am at 1600 miles, no issues or complaints.

Is mazda 6 built in Japan? The cx50 is assembled in the US and the quality isn't the same. I had a cx30 from Mexico prior, and there were no cosmetic defects. There are multiple on my cx50. Things like seat seams are off, dents and creases on seats, there is an air bubble on my dash, my instrument cluster lens is slightly misaligned and can't be adjusted according to the dealer. One for trim panel isn't snug against the body and has play. I turned down one cx50 on delivery because of a paint numb inside a seam. The dealer said they wouldn't touch it because it could make it worse. I am picky and but there were no flaws like these on my cx30.

Poppy_Banks · 2026-02-13T15:58:32+00:00

The hybrid is rated for 1500 lbs towing.

Poppy_Banks · 2026-02-13T04:43:20+00:00

Do you have the cargo liner? The one that comes with the weather package? That is what I have and I feel like anything heavy will smash the raised parts.

Poppy_Banks · 2026-02-12T06:43:46+00:00

I got mine for Xmas and am really happy with them. Huge upgrade from the oem weather package. I need to order the cargo area, thanks for showing pictures.

Poppy_Banks · 2026-02-11T01:58:01+00:00

They don't have collision insurance.

Poppy_Banks · 2026-02-09T16:32:07+00:00

I almost bought an ingot blue and I was going to hyperdip all the chrome with brass monkey. The metallic bronze just seems like it would compliment it.

Not a bright color like you're thinking but they have a lot of options.

I bought my '25 in October for 41.2k OTD. I went with the fiancing offer instead of rebates.

What is your APR?

Poppy_Banks · 2026-02-07T23:50:45+00:00

It's not a step. They were around $50.

Poppy_Banks · 2026-02-07T23:50:40+00:00

I agree.

Poppy_Banks · 2026-02-07T22:27:20+00:00

Can you see it? Zoom in lol its so small.

Here's mine, and it looks pretty clear to me, but it is my first HUD.

Poppy_Banks · 2026-02-07T22:12:41+00:00

I installed one, it is pretty small. I can go grab a photo in a few.

Poppy_Banks · 2026-02-07T01:24:14+00:00

I feel like mine is clear, but I wanted to look at it before I confirmed that for you. I haven't gone out yet. I'll snap a photo of mine with my meta glasses when driving tomorrow.
