Big deal where it is from, as long as it feels good. I have one and it is very comfortable. I mean how crazy luxurious does a $30,000 Mercedes have to be when it is good enough. God u people want too much.
Great Video!! Thank you for making it! I just ordered my CLA 250 w/ sport package on Friday - sight unseen as the dealership didn't have any on the lot. This was very detailed and very informative. I know I made the right choice!! Now I can't wait for it to be here in July!!
Just got mine on 10/27/2014. Love the look, the acceleration does take some getting used to. My backseat passengers (6'0ft tall) said they felt as comfortable as my previous C class. Not sure if I buy that though. Car feels pretty responsive, liking it so far!
Congrats on the new purchase ;) Have you tried driving it in sports mode? Quite a big difference in power, especially at higher speeds. Also, if you don't like the Auto Start/Stop feature, you can turn it off completely. Have fun with your ride ;)
Great review. I purchased one two weeks ago. I love it: White, beige interior, sport package, media system. I don't know how you got your user manual in the glove compartment. lol. Thanks for sharing
Glen Thomas Congrats on your new purchase! I'm sure you will love the car. lol, yea, it seem the only thing it can hold in there is the manual. Let me know if you want to put a front scoop on it, I can give you the website to it!
Nice review. I'm starting to consider the option to buy one, and since in my country -Costa Rica- cars cost double the price than in the US I think it would be a good entry in the Mercedes line.
Hi so I just bought 2014 cla250 4matic. I have so much to learn. So I'm told that I do have a camera for backing up and to see my surroundings, but I don't see that. And when driving on "S" I don't have to use the "-" or "+" as used for manual? (Sorry can't figure the name of that right now) Last one is what type of gas would you use? Super?
great video!!! also one thing i have still not found on youtube is the audio sound system. it would be great if you record a video with up beat music to get a feel of the sound system. although initially i wanted to compare the harmon kardon system with the standard sound system in the cla.
Its not really a benz Sir it was made in Hungary Using parts from SAAB Malibu, Impala underneath An original Benz is made in Stuttgart Germany and not in some eastern european conuntry the engine is far weaker than an ordinary 2.0 malibu
Do these cars have a lot issues? Is it true that they cost a thousand just to change brakes. This car is currently(oct 2017) selling for around $20,000 with 30,000 miles. I thought I might get used one lol
Very nice video!, how is the car holding up, specifically the engine and its reliability. Any problems with it so far, I want to buy I just don't want so many repairs and stuff. Toyota is very reliable and I am a freak about taking care of my car, if I did the same for the Mercedes would it last longer?
Pedro Hernando It's holding up great! Still feels like a new car. No problem with the engine yet, and i don't think there will be any problem anytime soon ;)
not reliable at all look on cla forums under problems/issues there are many problems mine is currently at the dealer for the 6 th time in 9 months.....
They're excellent cars! Good that you're safe. My friend own a cla45 amg also, and hit a deer at night, and it completely messed up his front headlamps and side fenders. Cost him 10k to repair.
***** slower than I expected, it had sort of a drag kind of acceleration. Like it starts off slow until it gains speed .. I don't know exactly how to explain it. The gas pedal had a weird feeling, maybe it was just the car I had
Hey man is this the 45 k one or the 33k one?? And can you go more over the features like what kind of sound system does it has, how many speakers, how many watts, and does it has bluetooth to coonect your phone?? Also does it has pandora or other features?? Can u play DVDS? And also can you play music via Bluetooth from your phone?? Sorry for asking too much its because i want to get a car like that!! aaHH AND I almost forgot. Does it has remote keyless entry or not??
Alain Name this one is in the 45k range. The remote keyless entry have to be added on with extra payments. Same goes with alot of the other features you mentioned. I might do another video in the future ;)
Yes, there's an usb and an auxiliary input. It is located in the middle arm rest compartment. But as u can see, my car was too messy at the moment recorded this :) so i forgot to show it.
the 2015 now comes standard KEYLESS START, but you can alos get the KEYLESS GO option now too!!! The 2015 is way better, it has several options you couldnt get in 14!!! I just ordered mine!!!
Hi Paul! The A45 are not currently in production for the U.S. But I will definitely review it if I have the opportunity to. You may want to check out a review I have of the CLA45. I believe Mercedes in the U.S. replaced the A45 with the CLA45. Here can see it here 2014 MERCEDES CLA45 AMG Start Up, Exhaust, Full Review
Perfect car, i got the cla 220 cd1 amg sport 4matic (tuned to 210bhp). Sticks like glue to the road and accelerates very quick for a diesel. Is that rust around the suspension struts? If so, id get it removed quick! If they are prone to rust there, id get it treated to prevent the rust getting into the body work
+Wesley Meredith Hey where did you get it tuned? I really want to get this car as a replacement to my 335i, I know it doesn't have as much juice but I want to squeeze as much out of it as possible! thanks
***** Those are LED lights and some cameras can't handle them properly so in the video it looks like they flicker. Actually everything is normal with the lights, just a technical problem with the camera
I'd get a nice Toyota Avalon for the price of this thing. Yeah its a Mercedes, but that doesn't mean your social life will be ruined if you buy a Toyota.

Very informative and detailed

great video!!! also one thing i have still not found on youtube is the audio sound system. it would be great if you record a video with up beat music to get a feel of the sound system. although initially i wanted to compare the harmon kardon system with the standard sound system in the cla.
Thanks! I will do my best to make a video of the audio system sound. Stay tuned so you'll be notified when i do!
Baby seats in back,,, LOL AWESOME!
:)
Does it come with an underneath puppy camera?

Thank you
These are really helpful for me hehe
This car is awesome btw
Thanks for watching! :)Yes, it is a very awesome car!
How the fuck does a luxury car like this NOT have a sunglasses holder?
Its not really a benz Sir
it was made in Hungary
Using parts from SAAB Malibu, Impala underneath
An original Benz is made in Stuttgart Germany and not in some eastern european conuntry
the engine is far weaker than an ordinary 2.0 malibu
thanks great vid!
Thanks! Glad you like it
Awesome car man just ordered mine (4matic) did you get the xenon headlights?
Freddy Mnemonic Yes, i Did
HappyRider2011 Congrats! I am sure you'll Love it!
My car!!!

Cool puppy
Srt Viper X Thanks again ;)
Great Video.. 1 Question. The head light/parking light LELD blinking feature that you showcased in this video. Is tat a built in feature??
Do these cars have a lot issues? Is it true that they cost a thousand just to change brakes. This car is currently(oct 2017) selling for around $20,000 with 30,000 miles. I thought I might get used one lol
Not really
Thanks for the review. Do rear windows roll down completely?
No, it does not.
Thanks for watching ;)

Pedro Hernando It's holding up great! Still feels like a new car. No problem with the engine yet, and i don't think there will be any problem anytime soon ;)
Is it expansive for oil change or repairs cuz i want this car, exact one but ppl say is too expensive
where are the controls for wipers? and how's the reliability of this car?
It's on the left hand side, behind the steering wheel. The car is very reliable ;)
not reliable at all look on cla forums under problems/issues there are many problems mine is currently at the dealer for the 6 th time in 9 months.....
How does not ever luxury car not have capless tanks at this point? I have it in my Ford Fusion, and would never want to go back.
In the future ;)
I wanna it
El coche de mis sueños......
16:06 the lil dog has rear gear :)
Mustafa yıldırım ;)
i just crash my cla 45 amg ..great car super safe in a bad accident
They're excellent cars! Good that you're safe. My friend own a cla45 amg also, and hit a deer at night, and it completely messed up his front headlamps and side fenders. Cost him 10k to repair.
HappyRider2011 Sorry for ignorance, but insurance don't cover that?
HappyRider2011 didnt he have insurance ?
Love the look
Me too
The acceleration was a bit weird for me, it takes some getting used to.
William Marcia It did took me some times to get used to it also ;) but after awhile you'll adapt to it.
***** slower than I expected, it had sort of a drag kind of acceleration. Like it starts off slow until it gains speed .. I don't know exactly how to explain it. The gas pedal had a weird feeling, maybe it was just the car I had

Alain Name Don't be a dam jerk you're buying a car to drive not a damn radio !
But nice shots bud
Lol thanks!
is there no auxilary/usb connection for ipods?
Yes, there's an usb and an auxiliary input. It is located in the middle arm rest compartment. But as u can see, my car was too messy at the moment recorded this :) so i forgot to show it.
What does it mean by direct fuel injection ? Is it still the same as turbo charging ?
fuel injection just simply means the fuel enters and goes directly into the engine.
Hello HAPPY RIDER, what is the website to buy the front scoop?
Hey Mick, It's been a long time and i can no longer find the website
Is it rear wheel drive, Caroline.
Looking to trade in my 2011 300....was hoping for push button start;(
the 2015 now comes standard KEYLESS START, but you can alos get the KEYLESS GO option now too!!! The 2015 is way better, it has several options you couldnt get in 14!!! I just ordered mine!!!
Thx for the heads up....
Very nice review and it is a nice car for its price. But it isn't too reliable
Srt Viper X Thanks!
Weird question but when you lock or unlock the car does it use the horn or a beeping sound?
no
sator soberi Thx I was able to find out for myself although I don't care much for the horn the soundless option takes getting used to..
you are welcome :) i have self one and its use lights when you unlock the car
Yea you can choose to disable the horn or enable it in vehicle settings.
Review the A45 AMG please. I have one and it is awesome.
Hi Paul! The A45 are not currently in production for the U.S. But I will definitely review it if I have the opportunity to. You may want to check out a review I have of the CLA45. I believe Mercedes in the U.S. replaced the A45 with the CLA45. Here can see it here 2014 MERCEDES CLA45 AMG Start Up, Exhaust, Full Review
HappyRider2011
I considered the CLA but not as sharp as the A45, but has got a boot!
Perfect car, i got the cla 220 cd1 amg sport 4matic (tuned to 210bhp). Sticks like glue to the road and accelerates very quick for a diesel.
Is that rust around the suspension struts? If so, id get it removed quick! If they are prone to rust there, id get it treated to prevent the rust getting into the body work
+Wesley Meredith Hey where did you get it tuned? I really want to get this car as a replacement to my 335i, I know it doesn't have as much juice but I want to squeeze as much out of it as possible! thanks
Check out the performance exhaust for the CLA250.
Mercedes Benz CLA250 Performance Exhaust System by HG Motorsports
I want one so bad. Is it possible to get one around 22/23k if it has a few miles on it?
No.
It'll be tough to find a used one for sale right now. Many people are still waiting for there pre-ordered ones to come in.
is that a scratch on the rear bumper @ 0:43 say it isn't so. great looking car!
pwrshots Unfortunately, it is :(Someone hit it and ran ='(
HappyRider2011 what do you do when somebody does that to your car?
How is the maintenance in this exact car ???
Same as other Mercedes, high
Does it come with front and rear parking sensors?
Yup
is that the anthracite or the aluminum interior?
I can't recall what the exact name of the interior is :(
what version of white is this? and which one do you recommend?
+J Hakim this one is Cirrus White, my favorite is this or Cosmos Black Metallic
+HappyRider2011 I got calcite white just a few days ago, is there any difference with you cirrus white?
can you explain me this when you switch to sport-mode theres another yellow eco-mode, what is this for? 6:17
Eco is for gas saving mode and engine will use less power
is that a big dent on the driver rear side ??? that's all i could focus on lol
Yup lol.
im 5'11
will this car be too small for me? (as in size comparision, not really leg room and stuff)
Kaiyuan Mao It will definitely be snug and tight for you, as I am only 5'7 weighing 155 pounds.
I wonder if these hydroplane at 100mph+ on flat surface?
Good question, i haven't gotten a chance to experience that yet.
Made in HUNGARY,the best or nothing, no fate for hungarians in France!!!
;)
What dog you have, cuz I have the same one but its mix with something. Idk what
Mix long hair chihuahua, but he ran away :(
+HappyRider2011 omg mine always try to run away too
Sexy ride man!
Thanks!
dog at 3:10 :-)
He’s no longer here :(
I got the this one for $25k with only 60k miles
Spe6ks HOW
Does anyone know if I can get a lease on this car for less than 300?
Does anyone knows that its not a benz? Its a MerChevy
All under chassis parts are from the old saab, old and new malibu and the new impala
awesome video :)
Is it possible to order Harman Kardon ?
Thanks! Yes, it is possible! You can Get it Directly from the Factory!
how much does it costs
+56904 Bekker this is $40k
Does this car have an aux cord jack
Yes it does ;)
*****
Those are LED lights and some cameras can't handle them properly so in the video it looks like they flicker. Actually everything is normal with the lights, just a technical problem with the camera
Is that the most important feature of a car? :D Btw, most cars do support aux cords nowadays.
i reckon so... even the cheapest cars do.
Aus80sRockRadio My mom has the 2015 model and it doesn't have a aux but I does support usb audio and Bluetooth audio
how much was it?
About 40K
price please??
kerwin decastro The one in this Video was $40K
Hey which is better 2014 cla or 2012 e class??
Two completely different classes. Depend on which style you like, feature wise you can have same features in both, just different body
how is this car on drivers head room? im 6'2'' anyone know?i was just wondering if it's a problem
srdan v I am 5'7" And I am comfortable in it. You may want to go to the dealer and sit in one to know for sure ;)
39900 tax included?
Hi Zhou, that price is without tax. You will be looking at few more thousands after tax.
Coast?
The Base Standard is $29,900The one Featured in this Video is $39,900 With the Sports Package
Black
Black it is
i dont like it, i think the cla 45 looks better, more power more aggressive, unless your not into that haha
I do like the cla 45 too. We all have our personal favorites ;)
there is a 20,000 price difference between the two haha
aint no cla45
Jeez $30,000
Car with not much options. Your pretty much just buying the name brand...
Yup
To me your better off paying an extra 20k for the Cla45 amg. More hp and Tq plus people wont look at it as the cheap Mercedes-Benz.
disturbed1gamerz The CLA45 is definitely a much more powerful car, but this is not bad for a starter ;)
Yeah definitely not a bad starter
C class is junk for space and features
It is the base model
I'd get a nice Toyota Avalon for the price of this thing. Yeah its a Mercedes, but that doesn't mean your social life will be ruined if you buy a Toyota.
My neighbor bought one of these yesterday. Just wait for the Civic Type R and its the same price but faster
There's nothing bad with getting more luxury with better value.
Hahaha the cars you guys are comparing a Benz with
stop being so jealous kaz u cant afford a benz.
Brent P. Ok..good for you. Why r u here watching then ? Go watch avalon vids
