What about limited slip diff? Is that already standard or is it only with P25? (similar to the P31).


Also, I noticed no keyless go option, is that not possible?

The vehicle has a Steel Roof standard (same for CLA 250). The only roof will be a Pano Roof Option.

I didn't see Limited Slip Diff, maybe I missed it.
Keyless Go wasn't an option on the sheet, they added it as part of the order in case it was available later.

320 Multimedia Package: $2,300
P01 Premium Package: $2,200
413 Panorama Sunroof: $1,480
H73 Carbon Fiber Trim: $2,850

I have no idea whether these are right or not, they could just be place holders.

I really want keyless go, but I don't see it. Is keyless go an option on the C-class? If so it should be on CLA.

It is an option on the C-Class. I wish it were on the CLA, but unfortunately right now it is not.

Ok, the. It should be an option on the CLA45 AMG... I may just wait until that becomes an option.

Also, can anyone confirm if you do NOT get pano, is there no normal moonroof option? It seems like its either Pano, or closed steel roof... Is this correct? If so that almost makes pano food mandatory (which is unfortunate bc it's heavier).

Also, the "AMG SPORT" suspension, what's the difference compared to the standard AMG suspension? (I plan on tracking mine so I may go ahead and check this option as well.)

Just spoke with my sales adviser, he notified me that MBUSA is pushing forward with production in August and that deliveries should begin in November.

He also advised me that an exterior carbon fiber package has been added (guess I'm going to get that as well).

My issue, I'm doing European Delivery and it doesn't look like MB is allowing Euro Delivery on this car until February of next year. So, I'll have to wait.

I gotta give my sales adviser, Derek at MB Foothill Ranch (Dcubed on the forum), props for keeping me up to date and being honest with me.

I placed my customer's order today here are some more updates:

AMG Performance Exhaust

AMG Performance Seats

AMG Performance Steering Wheel

AMG Exterior Night Styling Package & CF are available

Black "Red" Interior Options

I believe there is an option for the Express Window Feature as a stand alone.

First production begins in August.

I am seriously looking at ordering a CLA 45 AMG...a fully loaded one is the same price as a fully loaded 2014 GLK 250 BlueTec here in Canada!

My 2012 GLK 350 was totalled after a massive rear end accident, insurance paid me out for a new one

I am still not 100% on this vehicle, I read some comments that it built on the B-Class Chassis and there were concerns about it being a "cheap AMG" car??

Comments? thanks

I wonder what the "night styling" package is.

What's express window?

When you want to lower or raise the window usually you keep your finger on the button. Express allow you to just tap the switch and the window goes full open or closed by itself. It is optional because some locations prohibit automatic closing of windows lest someone be caught in the opening. This feature has an obstruction feature and instantly reverses if the door module detects increased current during a move.

Some dealers have an express window too. You pull up and they do miniscule maintenance like fluid top offs, lamp replacement, key batteries, and the like while you wait.

Wait, what? Haven't we had this standard on cars since the 90's? This should just be hold for a few seconds to go full open or close.

I got official word .. NO keyless go will ever be available to All CLAs unfortunately.

Still no word on summer performance tire option though, no prices either on that. Trying to decide whether to get 18s or 19s without black coating and get either truly professionally gloss black powdercoated (OEM paint coatings are much weaker by comparison.)

Hard to believe MB would go backwards with this. Aftrer driving my C63 with keyless go and my Daughter's C300 without, it would be a show stoppper for me. The MB key is not well designed and is cumbursome to use.

This is an option on even entry level non MB cars. Cannot understand how it's possible they would omit on an all new car.

Believe me I am pissed ... Maybe it will come at a later date. If I do European delivery I will have to wait anyways (Same with night package cars being delayed to at least Jan/feb)... Hopefully in that time period they announce keyless go, that would make me SOOO happy.

I'm doing Euro delivery for sure and I hope the other stuff is available by then.

Btw, AMG driving academy one day course is free as well. Perhaps doing both at same time would be a great option.

I am seriously debating hitting up Nurbergring as well while I am there... Gotta check that off the bucket list! Lol
