So it seems like there are some subtle differences between American and Canadian CLA's.

For one the price, $29,999 USD, $33,900 CAD. But there's more than just that.

Canadian CLA's get a rear arm rest AND cupholders which are not available in America no matter how many times you hit Dunkins.

The Canadian CLA's also get folding mirrors included in the Premium pack. Distronic (adaptive cruise control) is included in America but in Canada it is bundled in the Driving assistance package.

Canadian prices on Parktronic and Sports Package are cheaper than their American counterparts....

I wonder if Canada will get the dark tinted rear windows with the Edition 1 night package. Looks way better tinted as per the European pictures I've seen.

Good to know, I never would have thought the armrest and cupholder be amongst the differences between the canadian and us CLA.

I wonder if the Canadian folding rear armrest (part of the 60% folding rear seat back?) can be purchased privately from Canada as a part and have that component retrofitted by MBUSA dealer? Note: If so, will colors of leather or MB-Tex match?

I'm not sure to be honest but my first thought is that you wont be buying just the arm rest but have to buy the CLA's entire rear bench...

Let's see if a dealer in Canada can confirm which is the case. I'd be interested in the "rear cupholder mod", LOL.

you better throw up a CLA cupholder DIY mod thread complete with Video and or Pictures as well as part number, shipping time and cost....

I know that should be coming up in the diy section soon

I have not opted for the Drivers Assistance package. Which has the histrionic plus. Does that mean that there will be no cruise control feature in my CLA? Not even the basic cruise control?
