CLA 250 Coupe
I got a question that I want to ask u guys

I recently ordered my 2014 cla at local dealer, I got Premium 1, Sport and

Multimedia packages. But I have 1 thing that I couldn't decide yet, it's the

Panorama Roof, I felt like it's not worth the price, but what do you guys think?

If you have never owned a car with it and money is a factor then dont get it.
If money is not a big deal then absolutely get it.
People sitting in the rear will enjoy it 10x more than you do so if you dont intend to have too many people in the rear then it may not be worth it if you are not willing to add that expense.

people in the rear will enjoy it, since the back seats are cramped. It looks great from the outside, especially on a white car. I have it on my 2012 E, one negative is it is quite noisy..

Noisy? I suggest that you get yours checked out. It should still be covered under warranty.

The pano roof is not nor should it be "noisy"

I drive what I drive
My GF has pano in her GLK and she loves it.

One complaint is when you want it closed, the shade is thin and still lets sunlight and heat into the cabin.

Agreed with the first feedback about you won't miss it if you've never had it.
Also agreed that it lets heat in because of the thin shade & without shade, it's a sun through magnifying glass for fellow passengers.

One thing you did not mention is the Lighting Package. That is a must have for any new Benz purchase.

pano on CLA doesn't extend all the way to the back...
i'd say it's more like semi-pano IMO...
still nicer but not mandatory....

A gaggle of MB's
"Pano" for CLA is larger sunroof when open extends partially over back seat - downside is reduced headroom, especially to the outboard sides for rear passengers... some say tomato some say tomaato.

Agree completely wish it was solid. I'd rather not have it due to this. Lighting is more important.

2012 C250 Coupe
I personally love it and consider it as a must on my vehicles. As mentioned above, it is more of a "cool" factory for your passengers and to get compliments on.

With that said, the panoramic roof on the CLA is not as generous as on other models (like C-Class Coupe). But without it you feel kind of cramped and the interior is very dark.

I also think it makes the car look much nicer/sleeker, especially on lighter colored vehicles.

I lease my cars too, so I'm only paying the depreciated amount of the package, so it's a no brainer for me.
