CLA45 and tall drivers
Have been looking at a new C or E class but keep getting distracted by a CLA45 the dealer has. I am 6'5" and was very surprised that I fit in it. Any other tall drivers have any long term experience driving a CLA45?

the cla45 is wider and longer than the OLD C's (the most common ones u see on the road)
the NEW C's were made to be bigger than the cla45.
as a 45 owner myself i say get a 45, wait for the c450 amg, or get an e.
i wouldn't buy a c300 personally with those 3 ^^ other options coming in around $0-$15k extra in price (if u try hard enough)

I have been thinking the same as you. I have decided against the E. While it has lots of room and I am very comfortable in it, it just isn't sporty enough.
I like the CLA45 very much, but it just seems a little small, even though I fit and the MB web says it is slightly longer than a C, which surprised me very much.

I am 6'5'' also and enjoy my CLA45. Can't fit anyone behind me in the back seat but that could be a positive also.
