So I got bored and wanted to compare the CLA to competing cars. Which cars would you like to see the Mercedes CLA being compared to for size?

This is the Mercedes CLA vs the Acura ILX

Acura ILX
Length 4,549 mm (179.1 in)
Width 1,793 mm (70.6 in)
Height 1,412 mm (55.6 in)

Mercedes CLA
Length 4,630 mm (182.3 in)
Width 1,777 mm (70.0 in)
Height 1,437 mm (56.6 in)

why would anyone get an ILX now?

It's a sad day for ACURA now. When the CLA comes out in the fall all **** would break loose. I even think this caused a stand still for new vehicle buyers since the news and commercial of the CLA. So lots of consumers are waiting for this.

anyone who is able to afford a CLA wont ever give the ILX a look, it's two different worlds. one car has worry-free ownership the other it known to run your wallet

Acura is going to have to dig deep now if they want to compete with Mercedes. I like Acuras but the quality just doesn't compare.

They are both at a similar price range so it's not impossible to see people comparing them.

Not to be biased but in terms of luxury and amenities the Acura ILX just doesnt compare to the CLA. Mercedes seems to be sacrifices something to make the CLA so cheap but the upgrades is where they will make their money back.
