I got the CLA250 (bottom end and only Front Wheel Drive they make. Started at $32K and I ended up paying $38K from a $41K sticker. Has the AMG sport package so it's really firm (even more so than most which are all firm for handling) and it sticks to the road like a cat on a curtain. Back seat isn't anything to brag about but I'm retired and will never have to worry about it. Fun to drive and a tad quicker than the Camry I traded in even though it has a 2 liter engine with 208 horsepower vs. the V-6 in the Camry that had 268 horsepower. Gets about 6-8 more MPG w/o giving up "oomph".
I love mine and can't wait for the next one when I decide to upgrade a tad.
Ooooo AMG... If I had car posters my love would be any AMG.. A 1970 Dodge Charger or challenger TA... And something fun like a VW Thing... I know, one of these things are not like the other.. I also admire the C3 corvette.. Will wait out this economy and get something fun..
I saw some immaculate AMGs go for peanuts on Mecum... The powerful AMGs too.. Maybe next year.
