There's another thread on a similar topic that lists various race tracks from around the World and the vehicle which holds the record for a particular track, the A45 already owns or has the record for one of those race tracks

It's also beaten the current RS3 and M135i coupe on the Nurbergring, it certainly is a very fast machine both in a straight line and on the track and it's the best handling AMG built to date.

HIRO63 you and other A45 owners should approach the forum moderators and get an A45 specific forum section started, so far there's only the CLA45 section.

I'll try doing a search and finding the time, article I read only stated that it had beaten the time of the aforementioned types, the RS3 was beaten easily, the M135i was 'just' beaten which is quite a feat as the M135i features alot of mechanicals from the E92 M3 but in a smaller, lighter and more dynamic body, full kudos to the A45 to topple the likes of that Beemer

This forum is predominantly US based, so if they don't get certain models or variants they don't appear on the forum boards, the A45 is not destined for the US so obviously they're not too interested or in a hurry to get a dedicated A45 section going.

But seeing it's the 'top dog' so far of the AMG A Class range it deserves its own separate A Class section here just like the CLA45

Very impressive is right. The only Benz it can't beat around the track is the SLS!
