Hi all!

Placed my order for the 2014 MB CLA250 about 1.5 months ago. Anxiously awaiting that call from the 'Autohaus on Edens' dealership telling me my car is in. They estimated Sept. 24ish so its almost here!

This will be my first MB. I come from a blue collar 'only buy American vehicles' family, so not sure how this will be received, however the CLA250 looks so darned sleek and sporty that I'm willing to risk the ridicule.

Welcome.

What made you decide to go with the CLA over another American vehicle?, there are actually a good number of compact luxury american sedan's out.

Chevy Lumina - Computer. I had to have it replaced twice on the same car before 36k miles!!!

Ford Escape - Transmission went out at approx. 15k miles.

Maybe I'm a jinx and I just attract lemon cars lol

Just bad choice in car makers, American cars have always known to be crap, although there are some that run flawlessly, I just hear too many bad things about them, enough that i stick to my German and Japanese cars.

My car is here!!!!! Woohoo! My Mercedes dealership just called to say my car was delivered this morning and will be available this afternoon. I can't wait to go pick it up today!!!

Awesome, make sure to look over your CLA thoroughly for any damage or anything from being transported. Also make sure nothing is missing, I know some tech's tend to mess up on the pre-delivery inspection (PDI)

Keep us posted, post pictures!
