Hi guys. I test drove a gla 45 amg today and I loved it.

First I live in Quebec, Canada

The car is a 2016 brand new white calcite exterior with black artico/dina interior,have premium package and premium plus package.

The lowest it seems I can get the car is 55,600 and they say they are at a little loss at this price.

They offer me 20k for my C300 2013 with 31k miles on it. The only package I have is the sport package (the package pretty much all c300 2013 have)

So I would be left with 35,600 + taxes to pay
I'm paying cash.

Is it a great deal, good deal or it's a bad one?

Thanks in advance for taking the time to read it and sorry for my english.

Not sure about the trade-in value, but the gla no. sounds about right.
Love my gla and I'm sure you'll come to appreciate yours, if you take this plumge.
Great 4-season performance car for the Quebec environment / weather.

Hi PGH , thanks for the comment

I bought it tonight, I managed to drope the total amount a little : 35,225 + taxes

I will post pics soon.

Is there any services that you think are worth paying for. I've been offered amongst many the prepaid maintenance : 36 months/services for 1599$

Another that was proposed to me is the tires+rims protection : 4 year for 2340$.
They basicaly change your tire and rims if you break it because of a pothole or whatever no mather how many times it happens during that period.

I swear I watched this video 10 times in a row before going to the dealership :

Hey, congratulations. I'm sure you will be delighted with the 45. It is such a blast to drive.
The three - year service package is likely worthwhile, I know a few people who have taken this option.
Not sure about the wheel package. For that price you could likely buy 2 tires and 2 rims, so you have to think how likely that is. One alternative is to put that money in a 'savings' account and draw on it for tire repairs as required. Many damaged rims can be repaired if not damaged too badly.

Here's a few picture of my car. That is about as clean the car can be during that time of the year.

OP, Great looking GLA. Question for you, I too have a 2013 w204 c350 and I am curious about the driver's position and rear seat room? Is there more room in the back of the GLA or is it comparable to the w204? How about trunk space? I find that my w204 has a decent size trunk but I would love to have a lift gate or open trunk for bigger/taller items. My only concern is that I have a 3 year old with a bulky car seat and I have a 18 year old step son that is 6'1 that likes to tag along sometimes. My current car has barely any room in the rear seats for an extra person with the car seat + step son.

Thanks

Hi DameMD , I would say the gla have better head clearence for the passengers at the rear. It's about the same for the rest maybe the trunk got a bit higher space. Here is a couple pictures to give you a better idea.
