may i ask why you went with CLA as your weekend fun car? in the $30-40K range one can get their hands on a Mustang GT, Q60 Coupe, 370Z, MX-5...
Granted those are all coupes, perhaps a bit of fun with the family was in order?
Just curious...
pretty balanced review. They know the CLA doesn't stack the best on specs, but they do know that it plays with your emotions...CLA purchase isn't based on spec charts and spreadsheets; on ride quality, visibility, or screen size; on comparisons with Kias, Hondas, or even other Mercedes-Benzes. The CLA250 plays on passions. It's the fine arts graduate with a closing argument.

We currently have a Toyota and a Honda and have had other Toyotas and Hondas so we know dependability and reliability as well as anyone. But we didn't decide on the CLA by those measures. We got the CLA for emotional reasons, not logical. My wife drives our Toyota SUV as a dependable Mommy Taxi/toy hauler and I still have my Honda Accord as my daily commuter. My CLA is my weekend "fun" car.
