Then either you have to buy a 2017, or upgrade to the GT-R or Signature with the turbo. The turbo models are a TON of fun compared to the NA models, and literally feel like a different class of vehicle. I understand if it's a money thing, but if the few thousand extra in cost isn't a deterrent, I wouldn't even look at the base CX5s.
I am Not looking to get a turbo.

But he doesn't want the turbo and you just made that point to me. 🙄
If one is firmly decided on not getting vehicles that have these kinds of mechanics or features then they will be severely limiting themselves in the market. If the vehicle meets the needs you are looking for and fits you as the driver then worrying about GDI or CD or whatever will drive you crazy.
There has not been widespread problems with the Mazda system. Take one for a test drive and decide for yourself.
Test driving the vehicle does not really tell much about the future problems.
