I just priced out the CLA 4Matic to about $44,000 USD. Most would say "WELL WHY BUY A CLA? THAT PUTS IT IN THE WAY OF MANY OTHER CARS?!"

Between the Audi and the BMW I would still choose Mercedes. Just by the brand alone.

I've owned both an Audi RS4 and a BMW M3 before and I can say the Mercedes had the best interior and best build. They have my support.
There are plenty cars in this price range. It is a very competitive arena.

The CLA has a unique niche being 4Matic and 4 cylinder turbo. It has good gas mileage and doesn't look bad. I prefer the CLA interior to other cars in the range. And the exterior reminds me of my CLS.
