That's OK you will find that it has a very good heater.

 

just bought a 2016.5 touring. The difference between 2016 and 2016.5 is you now get free navigation and heated seats.

 

Mazda USA is releasing .5 models to help keep the car line fresh. Changes will be minor and I'm not surprised the salesman gave you a "Deer In The Headlight Stare". The info is out there for them, they just choose not to give a dam and learn.

 

Well, I bought a 2016.5 GT. Navigation is standard on that model now as well as heated seats.

I own a 2016.5 CX-5 GT so they definitely do exist...

 

I don't know the difference, but I have a 2016.5 and that is the way the dealer sold it. They do exist.

 

I first time hear 2016.5.

 

I can confirm that 2016.5 do exist. I have one. Mazda releases half year models.
