0-60 in 4.8 seconds. I don't want to spend $50k on a vehicle. :awe:

Holy ruined back end. They chopped the trunk off and forgot to replace it with something else.

If they made this even 50% of a proper wagon, it would be a neat car.
 
gotta give them credit for doing this... along with Dodge putting hellcat motors in other vehicles too...

Nissan still hasn't put the GTR drivetrain in other cars 🙁

Really? This thing is a freaking masterpiece compared to it's brethren. The CLA looks like a hyena scampering away from the rear.
 
I'm quite excited about this one. I want to try the drivetrain out before I get TOO excited but I think this is just about perfect for a daily driver. The CLA is just too impractical for me coming from the Forester, I really want a wagon/small SUV.

I wonder what a low mileage lease on one of these would run, I would only drive it maybe 5-6k miles a year.

[EDIT]Yeah way too much (based on CLA lease pricing estimator on MB). This would be one to buy used in two years.[/EDIT]

MB leases on AMGs are usually terrible. MB isn't that great with leasing, in general.

355 at 26PSI???

STI's make 305 @ 14PSI.......what turbo you running?

I have no idea which turbo AMG is using. I mentioned the psi because it sounded higher than usual.

The GLA45 AMG engine is smaller than that in the STi at 2.0L. Note that the 2.0L WRX makes 265 hp at 15.9 psi.
 
at least the GLA AMG version has four wheel drive. the base models are FWD.. cant believe merc makes FWD cars
