Car and Driver reviews the 2007 Mazda CX-9 and writes - ‘A stiff suspension does not a sporty drive make, though, and Mazda knows this. Sporty means clear communication between car and driver, and this the CX-9 does as well as some cars with much better sports credentials. Steering response is crisp, with excellent on-center feel, nice effort, and sharp feedback. The quick-shifting Aisin six-speed automatic transmission features a manumatic mode that submits fully to the driver’s whims, bouncing off the rev-limiter until the driver shifts and refusing to downshift under any demand through the throttle without an accompanying request from the shifter.’
