WTF DID I DO?

Well after convincing myself that I was gonna keep the 450hp CLA for another year I just went and put a down payment on a Black Edition 1!

I dont see any problems with it! The interior alone would be a good reason. Plus then you wont have to deal with the CLAs laggy transmission that so many people complain about

The edition 1 really pushed me over the edge, I think its pretty cool and different. Those diamond stitched seats though

I really like my CLA so this is tough!

My car will be exactly like the Hishy's

Honestly I starting going hard w modding the CLA and I felt like I needed to take a step back, if something breaks on that car and the warranty is voided it can be very expensive. I feel like I would only want to do a tune and downpipes on a car like this. So with the c63 I can get the power I want wo going nuts and blowing up my car lol

Exactly the M133 is a solid motor with forged Internals so I doubt you would hurt the motor but the DCT in the CLA doesn't seem very strong and a blown unit will cost BIG bucks. The MCT used in the c63s is an ox and you will barely tickle it with a tune and downpipes so the safety zone is way bigger. E/CLS 63's are running bolt ons with over 800 torque through stock MCT's with no problem I'm running a stage 3 Weistec blower on mine and it's taken it with ease. Not to mention a stock c63s will blow away a bolt on cla45 a c63s with tune and downpipes will be in another league congrats on the upgrade

The only only thing I'm hesitant about is getting this and not waiting for the coupe. Uggg the couple could look badass. I do have a refundable deposit

I have to agree with James the CLA is a pretty aggressive car. Don't sleep on it. Its pretty fast stock. His is modded so I can't imagine how fast his car is.

Yes the CLA is nasty with a few mods, mine is an extra 100 hp so it doesnt even feel remotely stock. I have an obsidian black c63 ED1 on hold

CLA45 AMG
Honestly I don't think you'll regret this... Well maybe a little once the coupe is out if it looks as expected lol either way there's so much more potential with the to C63S that it'll keep you happy and smiling for a while. The lack of AWD is only reason why I won't be switching. Will save up and pick up the coupe down the road as an addition to the CLA. At least that's the current plan. Congrats

Got to test drive the car yesterday,

WOW this car is nice!

When I first saw the car I thought it was a little too fancy for my taste, but after a quick 5 minute drive I fell in love. The car feels so damn good on the back roads. Steering is great, suspension feels good, seats are comfortable, shifting is quick, motor sounds awesome.

Cant wait to pick her up on Monday

Yesss LOL a long weekend of taking every performance part off of the CLA lol

To be honest with you I wasn't very excited when I went to see the car, I wasn't very excited when I saw it, after I drove it for 5 minutes I was really freaking excited

My CLA45 got totaled last week. I had a hard time deciding between another CLA45 and getting a C63S. My issue is that the CLA45 seemed like all the performance I needed. It was hard to justify the additional $.

Well I bought the C63s Saturday and I can promise you will not regret it!!!
