I have 2021 Accord 1.5t Sport with 28k miles. These 2023 Mazda3 Hatchbacks and CX-5s look pretty attractive and solid too. Should I make trade in? I still gotta pay PNC 7,300$. What do you guys think?

    You’re considering trading a perfectly fine car for a smaller, less practical car with likely very little in the way of new or better features and also likely worse economy, which doubly bad because it’s a smaller car. Why?

    Maybe if you were starting from scratch, it would make sense, but you almost definitely need to pay ($7300, if I understand correctly?) to get what I would consider a downgrade.

    The CX-5 is a completely different class of vehicle. So yeah, if life is telling you may need a higher sitting and more practical vehicle, then maybe. Just because of the seating position it may be a less enjoyable car to drive compared to an Accord too, so you’d be giving that up.
