CLA Forum - The main part of our site, a forum dedicated to the Mercedes-Benz CLA & CLA45 AMG.
The day we have all been waiting for has finally arrived. Mercedes-Benz CLA units have been delivered to their lucky owners' hands. We have 2 members who have already taken delivery of their vehicles.
We are still patiently waiting here in North America but this is a great site and we shouldn't be too far behind. Congratulations to both Hans and Eric for being the first that we know of to take delivery!
For those of you who have signed up to receive all the email information from Mercedes-Benz you should have received (or will be receiving) an email update from Mercedes letting you know that the Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG has finally hit the MB USA website. We don't have the configurator yet, its mainly a mini site at this point -- but it's the first really big juicy pieces of info we've seen on the MB USA site for the CLA45 yet.
It has been a long wait for everyone here in the community but we finally have a ton of high resolution (and great looking) Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG pictures available. 15 images in total are available and they show both the exterior from every angle as well as a couple of interior shots. Please enjoy these pictures - they make great wallpaper material.

RE: MSRP Release for the all-new 2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA 250
We are extremely pleased to announce the pricing of the 2014 CLA 250 at $33,900.
The all-new 2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA is an uncompromising four-door coupe with stunning style, innovative brains, turbocharged brawn and promises to elevate pulses while providing exceptional value. From the black diamond grille with central star to the long hood, sweeping roofline and frameless doors, the CLA is designed to seduce at every turn. The CLA 250 proves that beauty is more than skin deep with a potent 208 hp engine lurking under the hood that propels the coupe from 0-100 km/h in just 6.7 seconds while providing excellent fuel economy.
The following key highlights show many of the features that come as standard with the new CLA 250:
7G-DCT dual-clutch transmission
208 Horsepower, 258 lb-ft of Torque
The MB Guide App released by Mercedes-Benz on the Android and iOS platform received an update yesterday. It now includes the Mercedes-Benz CLA information. Highlights, Visual Search, Quick Starts, Breakdown Assistance and the Owners Manual are all included in the App for the C117 (And other) platforms.
Sony just officially announced their next-gen Playstation 4 console earlier in the week. The reason why that is relevant here is because the picture you see above of the Mercedes CLA45 is not real. It's a digital rendering of the car. One of the games Sony shared that will be coming out on the new console is called "Driveclub," and the picture you see above is from that game. Here's a quote with some additional details,
The Japanese company showed several new games for the PS4 among which was Driveclub, a brand new racing franchise developed exclusively for the fourth-generation console Evolution Studios.
Two of the cars announced for the game, which offers team driving with asynchronous and real-time social gaming are the new A45 AMG that we've already seen and the CLA 45 AMG, pictured here in digital form from Driveclub. This is the first time we see what the CLA 45 AMG looks like without camouflage.
As part of the same announcement, Mercedes also confirmed that the CLA 45 AMG will celebrate its world premiere at next month's New York International Auto Show, and that it will share its 355hp (360PS) 2.0-liter turbo engine linked to a dual clutch transmission and all-wheel drive, with the A45 AMG.
Now we have two ways to be excited about this amazing car from Mercedes!
