    For daily living, I'd go with the RS3. Midwest roads here, so I'd really appreciate a softer ride on rough pavement. Also, better steering too.

    The CLA 45 is absolutely the harder core of that line; it WILL shake you on rough roads and it WILL eat tires for breakfast. The CLA 35 is a better blend of performance and livability than the CLA 45, but if you want that apex feel you can have it. This would be a tough call....I really like both; though I'm leaning Audi, it may come down to which I could get a better deal on.

  • @joecamaro
    @joecamaro Год назад +4

    Both cars are very desirable, but the RS3is special because of its 5 cylinder engine. There’s nothing else like it available now. Also, I really don’t like it when automobile manufacturers tack what amounts to a tablet on the dashboard and call it an instrument panel. To me, that’s just lazy.

    The new gen cla 45 does not look near as good as the previous gen on the Side View. The Previous gen had the sharp body line under the door handles. It really stands out and looks more aggressive. The new body from the side view looks way less aggressive and almost boring in comparison to say a 2017 model.

I own a GLA45 right now, I’d say the t cylinder and merc`s handbuilt engine are next level compared to other smaller engines. I can’t say I know a whole lot about the 2.5, but I do known it’s good, just not how good. I’m not going to pretend like I know either, but I dig it. I’m thinking about trading on the GLA for an RS3, it it’s a hard sell, but always wanted one.
