The generation of V8s found in the c63 sound soooooo good. That exhaust flutter and deep rumble, jizz in pants.

The turbo V8s sound good, but I still prefer the previous non-turbo V8s.

Spotted the black CLA on the road as well - looks much better when you see it in person.

I wonder how the introduction of the CLA will impact the numbers of the newer C-classes on the road

Does anyone own or test drove this car? Wondering what your thoughts are on it as I'm contemplating this and a BMW 3 series

go test drive one and compare.

you cant compare it to the 3 series

3 series competitor is the c class.

cla, would be the 1 or 2 series. also cla is front wheel drive. 2015 they should be introing the 4matic.

as for how it drives, car feels pretty solid for a small car, turbo charged cars + fwd = feel and understand what torque steer is.
