You should definitely not have to pay extra for the exhaust. Why would they make an amg come without a sick exhaust?? That's like saying yeah you can buy this cheeseburger, you gotta pay extra for the meat though, do you want the meat? Uh... Yes. Who doesn't want the meat in a cheeseburger? Who doesn't want the performance exhaust in the highest performance spec of a car?
Sickwitit18 money 💰
The big thing is since its a Mercedes the majority of Mercedes buyers are old so thats why this car can be had with or without the loud exhaust or stiff suspension and strangely you can option this car with wood trim ew
Wish I could like like 100x
You really worry about the exhaust??? I will tell you what he should not buy - a car that was released in 2013 (the new generation CLA is already out) :D
Daffi's Music, Game & Stuff new gen looks nice and performs well, but it sounds like shit
On the leasing/buying POV... I got my 2018 CLA45 1 year old with 6k miles. Talked them down to 40k... my take on cars NEVER buy knew. Let someone else take the depreciation off the lot. In my eyes I bought a brand new car for 40k that had a 61k sticker price. And the break in period was already taken care of😉
Nice deal no doubt. Congrats!
Any tips on how you did that?
That's my dream car!!Congrats man!!!
Thank you sir!
Same lol, congrats
Calvin lol me too
Off all what I liked the most is you are a lawyer and a dj , wow!
Haha I do tend to get that a lot from people - a strange combination I suppose!
Sound of Arman actually no it’s very normal because I know a lot of my friends that own construction businesses and are DJ it’s a hobby they like their construction business is more to make money and the DJ is what they love and used to do before they owned a business
BEST CAR MAN NEVER STOP LOVING MERCS
My Dream Car❤️
12:30
It's a 2L not a 4L
Thank you, I was just gonna comment that
he probably meant 4 cylinder
ikr
No he didn't. He said it because usually AMG cars have 4 liter displacement like C or E class. It's a common mistake
KumRuzvalt93 the guy in the video probably just dont know much about his car and the e and c class only recently received 4.0 v8s before they have 6.2 and 5.5 l engines
congrats! I love this car.. I gotta buy myself one soon
I like this review because you show us the panorama roof open and also the Apple CarPlay which is what I wanted to see!
Thanks!
My dad has an S class, it's had that door handle locking and unlocking feature since 2008, 10 years ago! Crazy that they had that awesome tech in their cars so long ago while everyone catches up later. The stuff that first S class had was absurd, night vision camera that turned the cluster into a big night vision screen with the mph along the bottom looking like a battery meter filling up and going back down. Massage seats, remote control privacy screens on all rear windows, there was so much more I just don't remember it all/want to listen it all. He has a new S class now and it's insane, but it's just crazy to remember how nice and advanced the 2008 was. So ahead of it's time
Sickwitit18 bmw had night vision first :)
Mercedes GPS Command online system is amazing!
Looks good man! congrats. i just wish that MB would improve the interior and add likr AClass interior to it or Cclass, the old CLS style is just out of date.
Great car! Congrats! Personally I think I would go for the extra cylinder with the RS3! But the RS3s interior doesn’t come close to this! Drive safe!
It’s a 2L* 4cyl. Nice car
Thank you. I was shocked. 😂
Beautiful car!!! Thanks for sharing!
Beautiful car and a great review man. Thanks!
Way to go, man!
DOPE AF DUDE congrats dude you deserved it
Thanks brother!
Hope you enjoy driving it as much as i enjoy looking at it bro😍 i'm a big fan of mercedes-AMG
I imagine just cruising on highway 401 in a car like this with a panoramic sunroof at night time must be soo nice really happy for you man
Lol you got me with the garage door opener part🤣🤣
The use of the "Jeopardy" theme music was genius - loved it!
Nice review! I think it made me like this better than the A3 2.0 quattro
I like the "simpler" interior look, not over-hyped design that later tends not to age well.
Two things I do not like is the red seat belts (some trim models) and the silver trim on the wheels.
I think the 2018 engine pushes 380hp, while the pre-2015 do 355.
too cold man..the AMG badge is the ultimate symbol of success
Kiese Nianda yeah... defintely
Yeah you right but you have not a Amg or Mercedes hahah
Prank guy Watch Your Mouth
Plenty of cars are more expensive, so no. Anyone that knows cars would want an S63 / S65 AMG over this. Cars cost millions of dollars nowadays, so this is considered a budget car. How can an AMG have a 4 cylinder??? SMH
Bugatti, Pagani, Koenigsegg, Etc. AMG or not, a CLA 45 is extremely underwhelming nowadays. This is the type of car kids get for their first car where I live.
Have fun with it man . Congrats 🎉 btw great review
I have the 2014 version. This 2018 is definitely more advanced. Not much but still more advanced
Congrats! It’s a lovely car...I love 💕 this car! It’s been a year n half since I got mine n I love 💕 it!
Thanks! Awesome - what colour you got?
I got a black color with red seat belts...yeah this car is small lol..but not for me cuz I’m small n short lol 😉 so perfect for me.. lol
Really great review, I enjoyed it! Thanks.
CLA 45 AMG❤❤❤
impressive! I treat you this car so much, I fell the same way I, hope that I can soon make such a dream possible best regards form Germany!
Satin gloss black!! It's either satin or gloss FFS! Nice whip though
Would have been perfect if all black
Im 20 n at first my dream car was a hellcat… now im torn these are so clean
The sound much better then 2020 but the look of the 2020 is amazing people will hate or say otherwise but I disagree the 2020 is the most beautiful 4 cylinder I ever seen and price also very reasonable starting I think 50 some k in Canada maybe 60 but it’s amazing car however if you add extra things to the car it will go up to 80k a lot of things don’t come with car which I don’t like when you go to Benz site you have to add all these features that should come with car anyways in Benz class I’ll wait 2 or 3 years and buy one cash for 30 or 35k they go down pretty fast so maybe in 2022 or 2023 I’ll get the cla will be half price and then that’s amazing value drive it 6 years sell it for like 15k no problem I’ll lose only 15k in 6 years which is nothing but yeah that’s why I like the new one looks amazing inside outside and the ride is very smooth I checked few videos about the cla before 2020 or 2019 and everyone said it’s not much of comfortable ride so 2020 will be my choice
what do you think about wrapping the badges black? i see a few people do it, i guess it looks sick, need opinions
10:10 bro nice ride enjoy it
Nice choice, i really like this car and would also choose it if i had the budget.
My future car..
Awesome!!!
Great video! Thanks!
cool car, congrats
Is leasing actually just as good as buying the car outright? I’m just curious I never had the thoughts of leasing a car. Do you get the option to buy it if you’re leasing?
How's that alcantara covered steering wheel holding up? I think they look great but I've been concerned about how well that material would hold up especially with sweat getting on it from your hands.
No issues so far, but I do make a conscious effort to be gentle with it and to never have dirty hands.
I would call this an overview, not a review, but still a great video!
Driving review now up!
congrats
Nahh the screen being outside makes it easier to repair from a mechanic point of view.
My dad is getting the 2020 version but it’s still a beast congrats on ur whip
Nice! He will have drift mode! That is sick.
@@SoundofArman Yea, thank you. But he wont use it
drift will be used for me when I'm sixteen or when he lets me use the car, But im 13, and I usually drive his car down the street.
@@dibulifesriman1423 Patience...
Wish i could afford it. Nice car :-)
Hi Bro. Nice car . I’m getting one soon. May I know the chassis code . Want to get exactly like yours 😁
My dream car
"carbon fibre engine block" *looking at the cover*
Can we get a test drive?
Its coming!
My cla 45 the best looking.
Curious how long you ended up keeping it, how was it?
Fire bro my boys similar
Nice 😎
i have the same car same year and everything ayeee, AND i live in toronto. see u around ;)
Haha same colours even? We twins!
Sound of Arman same colour haha
Was you Audi the 2.8 v6 because that's what I had and I had the timing belt replaced. I had so many oil leaks.
I hate the auto start stop tech .. annoying auxilliary battery will die & you have to replace it .. am cool replacing the main battery every couple of years .. but replacing another which also costs from 50 to 170 US is really annoying
Every car push you in understeer not because of 4wheel drive but just for the saftey...
I own a 2010 w204 and thinking about trading in and getting a 2018 CLA45 Yellow Night Edition. What's your 2yr opinion on the car now in 2020?
Get it
@@azielpalestina24 I snagged a 2017 C43 last August.
Nice review and offtop not about music, but about a sound and emotions) Arman, do you use Instagram?
Thanks - yes @soundofarman
Do you still have this car man?
How can you be a lawyer and DJ lol
Why not?!?! Anything is possible!
Toronto
Mercedes 🔥🔥👍🏽👍🏽💪🏽💪🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽😏😕
Is the your cla better than the c63 sedan 2019
What are the lease payments? I’m debating between leasing this amg or the hellcat.
Hope you did not end up with the hellcat😂😂
You need to lower it, get some coils, and it will become a go cart....
TwistedSwed lower a performance car that is already on sports suspension... 😂 clever
Holy fuck man why you didnt spec the performance seats? They look so good
This car was off the lot - if you customize your own build it takes like 6 months or more to be assembled and shipped from Germany! Also they aren't very comfortable for longer drives. I agree they look amazing though!
The interior of this generation is really ugly, expect next generation.
new gereration and new interior is there buddy:)
The new generation is beautiful
Ok so my concern is with the unlocking of the door handle, so is it possible for strangers to just unlock your car and hijack it???
No, you have to have the key in your pocket to unlock it.
Sound of Arman ok makes sense, thank you.
Man, what is your height? I would like to know how much space is in the car. I have 1.85m and I would be interested if there is space in front, but also in the back
I'm only 5'7. Front is fine, but back is a bit tight. It is a pretty small car for a 4 door so don't be fooled
If I have 6'0, do you think its comfortable?
That song at the beginning is good .. what is the song called?
does the 2018 have the drift mode as well
4 litre or 2 litre?
My only problem is the packages that don’t come with car it’s ridiculous those are basic packages apple car play this and that I mean you can buy a 10 inch tablet from eBay for a car for dash tablet whatever you call it for 500$ and will have wifi amazing processor and tons of features android system Apple system so these screens cost nothing. For car companies like 100$ I don’t know now days and age should be added to every car it costs nothing 4200$ for small packages I said in my previews post you can buy 20k of packages on top of the price and it’s packages that should have been added without paying that much for a car with that price and class
damn dude how do you fit in that, I test drove one and they are sooooo tight you gotta be like 5'5 or shorter to feel comfortable
I'm 5'7, and I'm quite comfortable in this car.
Nice car ! How long is the lease?
45 months
Is your front window tinted? Please respond quickly if you can, thank you!!!!
Nope, not tinted. It's illegal to have that where I live.
Price now please second hand
Lmaoo everybody hating in the comments saying shit cus they can’t afford a beast like this so just stop while your at it exhaust sounds beautiful 🤤
No slots on the rotors, only drilled
Incorrect.
Led rear headlights 🤦🏽♂️😂😂😂
🤣🤣
Only in reverse😂
Hayes aper?
Even toyota hilux has a better screen
ارمانه😎
first of all its 2 Liter not 4 lol
381 hp ..
Correct! My bad.
Sound of Arman no Problem bro i got one same like this in the video just with the aeorodynamic packet
Someone should please get this car for me I really love it I will be grateful if anyone can get me this thank you
Dose it hav v8 engine?
No its a 4cyl 2.0L engine
No but its the fastest 4cyl
30 mins of non sense and didn't even start the car?
🇧🇷🇧🇷🔥
Of course its cheap to lease, you don't actually own the car lol you're just renting it. Can't even drive it as much as you want to
Sickwitit18 cheap for him. If these were "cheap" to lease, don't you think there'd be a lot more of these on the roads 🤔
Drove the CLA a few years back, and gave me the impression of being a cheap "poor man's Mercedes" poser car. But unexpectedly, the 2018 CLA45 is SOOOO much better, drives really well, and is actually quite a lot of car for the money...
Timothy L I have the 2014. It’s not how you describe at all. Great car.
+Paul Cotton Maybe I'm just spoiled. Before I drove the CLA 250, I've only ever owned and experienced C-Class and above saloons, so maybe it was the step-down that gave me such an impression. I've always liked it's looks, but thought it was cheap inside and out (I especially dislike its cost saving front wheel drive power terrain), marketed towards younger people who want a Mercedes badge and good looks. I especially hated groaning engine, the cramped room, terrible suspension, very mediocre comfort/seats, etc. And I think most people would concur, judging by the reviews...
But they did a damn good job with the CLA45, it really is a blast to drive, and fixes many of the issues I had with the 250 (i.e. exhaust note, suspension)
Timothy L oh. Your original post didn’t say cla250. I assumed you were referring to the cla45 amg. Yes I agree the 250 is not worth it at all. I would never buy the 250 or tell anyone to buy it.
+Paul Cotton Oh I see, haha. Yeah, sorry for the confusion
should have bought an ATS-V
Bought the wrong car lmao 😪
You bought a brand new a45 Amg in 2018? The new one is just around the corner. Less than one year from now your car will be outdated. Should of waited.
It's a lease, and I love the look of this car. I have actually seen the "spy" photos of the 2019, and I do not like the styling as much. Also, for whatever reason, the Mercedes salesperson said the 2019 would look the same... go figure!
Its actually being released in 2020, and it will be mainly interior changes. Engine will also be slightly more powerful, adding an extra 30 or so horsepower, to just over 400.
@@nicolasredacted1039 and its out already :D (AMG version will come 1-2 months later) ... If we would be 5 months before when you guys commented this I would still say that its a huge mistake to buy a 2013 model (especially the interior is sooo freaking outdated) - it was obvious that they will start new generation with A and CLA class.
@@SpinninSomeEDM The car won't be for sale till 2020 though.
It’s a 2L 😂😂😂😂
Bro it’s fast though I just drove one today
@@Crossyaover I know but the guy in the vid said it was a 4l
@@kitefn1 oh y’a he fucked up lol
🇦🇲🇦🇲
Looks like Toyota Camry
Mercedes is not doing good job
Not any more the quality is not good
Cheap plastic and to expensive
Don't be hater lah
Nonsense.
