2014 Mercedes benz CLA

I am surprised no one talked about this car. especially the AMG model. It is priced sub 50k which is Evolution STI price range.

CLA 45 AMG is a 4 cylinder and 355hp 332ft/lb of torque. I cant wait to see the reviews of this car against STIs and evos...

The performance is very good, 0-100km/h in 4.6 seconds.

Price is going to be mid $50s, which is priced right, $10,000 less than the C63.

Can't wait to see one in person.

CLA 45 AMG should be interesting...

I thought I saw one at the Richmond, Granville/No. 3 Road Petro Canada gas station.

The front LED daytime running lights looked like the CLA + the diminutive size.

The front LEDs look similar to the ones used in the current Audi A3, but with more curves to it (i.e. the CLA LEDs were more feminine).

I can't get over how the trunk swoops downwards like a godzilla stepped onto its trunk. The A class hatchback looks a lot more coherent.

And I guess it's not available in Canada.

You guessed correctly. A class and CLA class shares the platform but CLA is what the marketing department thinks we like better.

Much like how our BMW 1 series is coupe only but you can get hatchbacks in Europe.
