We have a 2014 Mercedes Benz AMG CLA 45! i personally have always like the look of these cars and think they are a great size for a little sporty coupe/sedan! The current market value here in aus on a early model CLA45 is around 50k for a good condition low km one.. high km ones are going for as low as 40k! this is near half price from when they where new!!! witch means these are actually getting somewhat affordable! the one i tested was really well spec'd out had 42,000km on it and is for sale for 48k... n i got a tell you i think that was a good deal, truthfully.
love it or hate it you cant argue its performance numbers and AMG quality.. and i think its a great little performance car!
Thanks again to Leyoung auto group who supplied the car for me..

Nice review. Had a 2014 CLA45 AMG. Loved it for 5 years and then....... a car pulled out in front of me with little time to react. Totaled and not a scratch on me! Went out and purchased a 2019 AMG CLA45. I’m in love all over again. Awesome car!

@RossReviewsau 4 жыл бұрын
really depends on what you want.. i think the CLA45 is better for practicality and driving in the CBD.. out on the open road the M4 prob has the edge tho as its just a little more sporty (bigger engine) (coupe)..

@Beer_Dad1975 2 жыл бұрын
They aren't really in the same league - the CLA is ultimately an A class chassis, Mercedes absolute entry level budget platform, and even with all the extra engineering work they did to it for the CLA-45AMG, it's still super compromised as a performance car though has a good level of practicality to go with the performance. The M4 was developed specifically to be a high performance sports car and therefore has far fewer compromises from a performance perspective but is much less practical. Really comes down to what kind of car you need. Either way they are going to cost you an arm and a leg to maintain, so I'd not be going after either of them if you don't have plenty of money left over for maintenance, and I wouldn't go for a high mileage version of either.

I just bought a 2014 cla45 back in April this year fully loaded white on black with the ten spoke black rims and red all around premium interior package and let me tell u, once u put catless down pipes on them or even just a muffler delete dude just a muffler delete alone makes the car 10x louder it’s insane videos on KZfaq doesn’t do justice like when I dropped my car off to get it done I was like nah can’t be that much of a difference bc KZfaq it didn’t sound much louder lol… boy was I completely wrong the revs and down shifts are so loud my neighbors 15 houses down the street always tell me they hear me when I’m coming before turning down my street. And I just got catless installed bruh.. 😂 enjoy. I think the looks for this car compared to the other two and if u don’t cheap out on the spec snd options like definitely need amg exhaust which is the black tips and bucket seats bro ur golden for the price and once tuned it’s fast. I’m going to get a stage 2 soon and should be pushing about 440 but stock it’s already fun trust me let me know what u end up getting and if u wanan see my car because I did a decent amount of cosmetics on the exterior I’ll send u my ig maybe it’ll help u decide what u want lol

dont recommend the subbie, old tech and over priced.. CLA45 is great but make sure you find a lower mileage one, as they run a huge amount of boost from factory id be worried about high mile ones.. I love the Charger so its a hard one.. lol depends what you want from the car.. CLA45 = fun little pocket rocket + luxury feel Charger = V8 american muscle, good for straight line runs and V8 sounds, its big tho and not nearly as premium feeling

Recently drove one for 10 days. Overall, cheap feel and build quality, dreadful fuel economy, and not very fast. Very disappointing.
@RossReviewsau 4 жыл бұрын
there is a BIG difference in trim levels.. so some will feel cheap.. fuel economy is not great but its a performance car.. to be expected. it is fast come on lol what are you comparing it to? i will say tho it does not feel the fastest in a straight line, you need to be in the corners to really feel the speed. the facelifted model got launchcontrol n that really sorted the Straight line feel
@taz_trader 2 жыл бұрын
what the hell man "not very fast" i dont know of any vehicles pulling 0-60mph in 4.2 in this price range. regardless the cla45 will smoke almost all other vehicles around you unless you live in some gated community lamboland. For quality yea i agree its not as nice as an s class.

Leviathan I will give you that I forgot about the 440 but I think it was not called the worlds fastest production 4cyl because it was made in such low numbers and only for the uk.. according to the internet tho the CLA45 was the fastest production 4cyl n still is with the 2020 CLA45.. 🤷♂️
@30yearoldmanthatgetsbullie44 4 жыл бұрын
The reason why is because professional drivers have got this thing as low as 3.8-6 in 60mph which is equal to the fq 440 and is produced throughout the world
