Saw one in black a week or two ago.
It's not unique, in terms of look.
It's average, but the price point is good.
Hopefully, the AMG brings better styling cues than the regular CLA.

Mercedes is planning a shooting brake/wagon version of the CLS but it will not be sold in North America. What a load of crap. Not everyone wants to drive a SUV in North America.

I think the looks are highly dependent on the colour & wheel combination.
Saw one in silver with the black multispoke AMG rims and it looks fugly, saw one in white with the 5-twin spoke AMG rims and it looked pretty good.
Wish they brought the hatch over though, saw that in HK and it looked damn good.

as promised, pictures of the CLA 45AMG, this is a production model, some things are missing.
also found out a huge list of options, night package, amg optional exhaust, ADP package which removed the limiter up to 270km/h, cf package, and special combinations can get you the ability to get custom special order recaro amg seats. no, up up down down left right left right b a start will not get you the special package.
dat ass 
da rear wheels/brakes 
da product list 
looks pretty! 
the front wheels/brakes, was told they are 13.8in rotors 
the new badge, 2.0L twinscroll turbo @ 26psi... for stock, not fuckin bad! 
the interior, the stitching on the dash is optional... 
from the driver side... the comand screen is not removal, it suppose to look like a tablet. 
dat ass with optional ricer diffuser 
we had to... we just had to! 
you cant really see it, but its dual intercooler... air to water cooler... thats right! 
the motor 
the twinscroll turbo... borg werner apparently  | |

The moment I saw that you could have 23K worth of options on a 50K car... and then I remember how I managed to get a 130K Cayman S from Online Porsche Configurator.
hahaha... I wonder if MB sales will give you crap is you just went in and wanting the 49K base AMG..

you will probably get it faster. custom options = longer wait time. its customer for a reason. Quote:
