As current owners and experiencing the vehicle, would you buy a CLA again? If not, Why not?

Yes, absolutely. Love this car. Have no issues with it. It's my first car and drives quite sporty. Suspension can be quite harsh, but the newer models have adjustable dampers I believe.

Currently on the look out for a C63 S Coupe though, which is quite an upgrade. But having the CLA as my first experience with Mercedes-Benz, it's very positive.

Yes, I've had mine for two and a half years and she's been great to me so far.

Only issue was a minor manufacturing defect that was covered by warranty, the platform and the engine are both very mature so they've ironed out most of the kinks. The ride is harsh but I believe that's a first model year issue since all the later models I drove as loaners are much more comfortable.

I don't regret buying the CLA, but I think I personally am overpaying for it. 50k CAD for a 210HP car has always bothered me. If I could do this all over again I would have taken a much harder look at the M235i.
