I was thinking of buyingI 2007 Mazda CX-7 , I heard that it using only premium gas, is this true.?

Source: Yahoo! Answers

I also heard that the 2008 using regular gas.

  • Dont listen to the other people who dont know what their talking about. The 07 does require premium fuel and the 08 premium is just recommended.

  • I've got a 96 Chevy Tahoe with a V8 and I've used regular in it for years now without a single problem.
