Did anyone notice the dimensions in the new brochure? The 45 is an inch and a half shorter, and an inch narrower than the standard CLA. It seems that the only place where AMG isn't trying to tell us that "smaller is better" is in the weight division where the AMG version comes in a corpulent 200# heavier.
None of the $17-18K extra that we'll pay for the AMG label went toward saving weight, (Yes, I understand about the 4 wheel drive, intercooler, etc.)
Obviously, (I hope) I'm being facetious about this, but I do wonder how (and why) the car got shorter & narrower.
