I got more cancer from the FP comments than all the cigarettes I’ve smoked in the past year.

Some are kinda right about the CLA though. My none car friends all love the CLA because it ‘looks so cool and flashy’ and because it’s a Benz. I cringe every time.

Why would anyone click there unless self-torture?
I know a young woman who has a fairly base CLA, she loves it.

Yeah, but “back in the day” Jalopnik was like 50% less cancerous than the rest of the internet.

I work at a Mercedes dealer as you know and our customers/salesmen never liked the CLA due to the “type of customer” that it brought in. A lot of the first ones arriving were sub $34k, like 90% of them. They felt it cheapened the brand having Dude/Dudette A trying to get the biggest discount on a CLA in the desk next to Dude/Dudette B continuing to add more options to their S-Class AMG. Oh, this spilled over to the used car department salesmen having to deal with Dude/Dudette A with only $1500 cash in their pocket trying finance a CLA next to Dude/Dudette B paying cash for a loaded CPO GL-Class

Well I do agree with that top comment (though I wouldn’t quite word it his way), I hope BMW doesn’t change their mind about bringing a 2-series Gran Coupe that’s RWD to compete and bring the Chinese 1-series sedan instead.
An M240i Gran Coupe would be SICK.

Ah, so I guess it’s suppose to be like a Mini competitor. But it just attracts people who want a cheap MB badge?

Well, it looks like a miniature version of the 10 year old CLS that the local wannabe pimp at the Döner joint drives, so it’s cool, right?

50% the clientele that modern Mercedes Benzes have. Thanks to leasing every dumbass can afford a car with a three pointed star in the logo while still living at home. I do get the appeal of the first CLS though I would look like said pimps driving it.

I wonder how many salespeople pawned them off onto less experienced salespeople. Trying to dodge a lower commission. I can’t imagine the commission difference between a 33K MB vs 100K+ car.

Better him than Erdolf tbh. And to fulfill the stereotype an Adidas track suit and one of those must be worn

Yeah, if these things are going to *replace* the RWD cars, then I’m out. An M240i GC sounds awesome - - unless you try to sit in the back seat, though?

I don’t care how rich I get, I’d be that dude nickel and dimeing negotiating a $100k+ car like, “oh hell no I’m not paying that $295 dealer service fee.”

As I pointed out on the FP, comparing the A-class to a Hyundai Accent is stupid, when it’s much closer in size and performance to an Elantra GT Sport.

Makes sence I suppose. Didn’t think about that. They had to work twice as hard for CLA customers than anything else, price negotiation wise. according to them
