SELL E COUPE / BUY CLA 45S???? HELP
I drive E 300 coupe 2017 245hp (No airmatic suspension) / I want amg level performance, So I became intrested in CLA45s 421hp... In my country I cannot buy higher class amg cuz CLA45s is already expensive enough. So should I sell my E class coupe and buy CLA45s??? Went to a dealer and he said;
If you go from E class to CLA you will immediately regret your decision; In terms of size, comfort, material quality you will be upset and sell your CLA, you better buy new E350 coupe. What do you guys think? Performance and looks of CLA is nuts, will that performance make up for these negative things? Any of you been in both cars? Please help...

I thought the same thing if i did it
YOU WILL REGRET IT. Don't do it.
AMG level performance will be there for years to come. Enjoy your E coupe.

But CLA has improved quality drastically. Material quality increased as far as know. Plus my car does not have airmatic, I am expecting similar level of comfort. Any of you been in both cars?? (I am 186cm)

One last thought. Even AMG can only do so much for an economy car platform. FWD (FWD based AWD for AMG) vs. RWD, just my opinion, there is no comparison. When you mention wanting more performance, power is one part of the equation. When you press the accelerator exiting a corner do you want to feel the car pushing you through, or do you want to feel the car pulling, under steering etcetera? The E coupe is a big car by comparison. Maybe a BMW 2 series would be a good option for you if available in your locale.

Actually I love my E coupe, quality is superb, I just wish it had 400+ hp and I would never sell it. But E53 is far more expensive than CLA45s in my country. So I preferred CLA. I just want that, the car pushes me back when I hit the accellerator. And 421hp vs 245hp; I am expecting massive differance between E coupe and CLA/ It should feel twice as fast. In manners of torque 375nm/500nm not that much but, CLA45s seems to be only AMG I can get with my budget. I am paying 140.000USD for CLA and they sell 250.000 for E53 / 2015 used C63s is being sold at 160.000 (Dont need to mention the unused price) ... E350 coupe is around 155.000 so I guess CLA45s is the most logical way to spend my money. What do you guys think?

Got it. It's a shame that MB doesn't seem to offer the E450 coupe in your country. It sounds like that might be what you like best. In any case I'm curious as to what you decide.
