Considering these 2 models. We already have a 7 passenger SUV for large vehicle purposes so this will be my everyday fun driver. I don't mind being unconventional. I value the drive experience being a racer with multiple amateur national championships to my name while also realizing that off the track it's nice to be comfortable. $55k after negotiation is the budget.

Go! And TIA for your thoughts and opinions between the 2. Of course a Dinan 340i is also in consideration along with a bunch of other maybes like the Jag XE R-line but I'm here for the MB opinions. I've never had a MB but several BMW, Audi, Porsche, and Infiniti.

I have a 2015 GLA 45 with a Rentech ECU, not a piggyback. 426 HP on 93. C43 with delivery date of second week and n August. GLA is great fun and will be a bit faster than a C43 but I like the more heavily rear -biased 4matic in the GLA. The C 43 gets the ECU treatment on arrival. Either car is great and suits me after 50 years of Porsche's and decades of amateur and pro racing. My back needs a better ride now that I am in my late 60's.

Great feedback Agin, thanks! Obviously the thing to do is just borrow whichever 1 you aren't driving at the moment
