Very impressed with new CLA, the older models felt like you were buying a economy car with Mercedes badging. The better styling and more premium feeling interior elements really elevate this class far above where I believe it stood before. I’m considering the 250 myself but I have to test drive the 350 too!

The new CLA looks really good inside and out, the last gen was definitely less fancy. It seems that even slightly used C class models are going for good prices right now

[@LANDIIIIIOFIIIIIFIRE]

These days any “ Affordable “ becomes not that affordable with “ Market Value Adjustments “ , “ Dealers Markups “ and other so called “ Premium Fees “

[@sardo9378]

I found a dealer not charging these Mark Value Adjustments. Not all are. The first dealer I went to told me everywhere does this. I almost believed him. Then I went to a 2nd dealership, they were charging one also, but not as much. The first one was charging a 6k markup on an A Class. The second dealership only charged a 2k markup on CLAs and no markup on A classes. I went to a 3rd dealership, "a considerable distance away from my home but it was worth it), and they are not charging a markup at all on CLAs... I went with the third dealership needless to say.

[@LANDIIIIIOFIIIIIFIRE]

@@sardo9378 Congrats. Don’t know which state do you live but you got lucky with the price.

[@sardo9378]

@@LANDIIIIIOFIIIIIFIRE I live in New York City. First dealership was in Brooklyn close to my home. Then I went to the one in Manhattan. Both were charging simllar markups. I expanded my search to Long Island. They were charging a markup but only 2k on CLAs. Then I went to Westchester County to White Plains, about 1 and a half hours away on the subway and then a commuter train and no markup. You can get an idea on who is charging a markup and who isn't on the individual dealer's websites. There is a MSRP price and a dealership price. Some dealers post what their price will be. the ones that was a minor difference or no difference in price was the ones that I decided to visit. The salesman told me no markup, and when i saw it in black and white on the buyers agreement I rejoiced.

What’s the difference between this and the a220? How does these two compare ?

[@thedutchman1302]

I would say go for the 2018/2019 models with the AMG package…the reason I say this is becuz I owned the 2018 model with the sports pkg and now I have the 2022 and honestly I loved my 2018 way more. The look was more aggressive, I had the same day running lights, interior LED lights and the aesthetics were nice too…way more accessories available and you can easily torque up with race tuning chips and so forth…the basic 2022 definitely has a faster response than the 2018 model but overall I think the exterior look of the 2018 along with the feel and available customizations gives those models the edge.

Mercedes' sales sank like a rock in the U.S. in 2021 due to not having anything to sell. You couldn't find a CLA or any lower end Mercedes as they chose to focus on the S, G, and other mid level Mercedes models. The chip crisis was managed terribly at Mercedes. The only time I saw a CLA or even a C-Class they were marked up with 5-10K adjustments, which is totally absurd and guess what they still sold.

These have come a LOONNG way over the awful 1st generation. MB seemed to have learned from mistakes, namely removing most of the cheapness of the previous generation. I think this is better than the BMW competition, and more premium-looking than the Audi(which doesn't look all that much more impressive over a GLI). These cars do prove that buyers will indeed buy something because of the nameplate. Several larger near-lux cars can be had for the price of this.

Awful! I have a 1st gen, and I take offense to that! 😃 Honestly though it’s been a super reliable car I’m at 90,000 miles and nothing has gone wrong. Just basic new battery, oil changes, new tires, brake pads, normal stuff I’ve had to spent money on. All and all a good car other than the dual clutch transmission being jerky at times. Cheers!
