    Just picked up my 2022 CLA 45 AMG two weeks ago. I had a good sense of what I was getting myself into through your videos, but finally getting to own and drive one regularly has been a dream come true. The driving experience is indescribable. I hope more people buy this car, thanks to you. It's worth every penny.

Perhaps a video for the future using some of your new and old footage comparing the two and what some of the main differences are and why someone might choose one over the other? Perhaps 5 reasons to select a C43 and 5 reasons to select the CLA45s? And I love the emotion you show in your videos - nothing wrong with being a bid kid with a huge smile!!!

    First off, the quality of this video is top shelf - not sure how big his budget was but I'm guessing it's not massive and even then I think it rivals the quality of big budget videos so much so that I enjoyed watching the video even though I don't really like the car, (and even owning a Benz myself I'd have to say that holds true of most current Mercs). Probably the most important thing he said in this entire clip is here at 07:17. After growing up during the Duke Of Hazzard years I got an ear for a V8 and that has never really left me. I like a V10, a 5, A6 and a 12 but I've never liked a 4, (except the characterful Subaru Boxer). This fella seems pretty genuine and I admire that.

I can understand your feeling towards the modern cars after growing up in the Duke of Hazard years! I'm split down the middle here I love the modern cars but I admit you can't beat a classic big thirsty engine! I would love to bring a second car onto the channel one day if I can afford it. An older project car with a big thirsty V8 or more! Perhaps one of the older generation AMG's. Thanks again for your comment and for watching :)

    Hey Sean, The CLA35 is a fun car but I do think the 45s is on another level. The hand built AMG engine is very special, I'm working on a video all about the engine at the moment and the engineering really is incredible. There's also so much more dynamics with the 45s. One thing to keep in mind is that the 45s is more of a pure AMG while the 35 is more of an AMG enhanced car. Not to take anything away from the 35 as it has plenty of power and it a really fun car to own and drive though. It's a tricky one really, the lower cost and fun factor of the 35 is very attractive but if you want the absolute best version the 45s is significantly better.

    They work quite well. You just choose a speed by toggling the button on the steering wheel then you can turn it on and off. Very handy if you're driving through an average speed camera check and don't want to get distracted looking at the speed-o-meter. There's also a button on the steering wheel that not many people know about that I'm going to run through in a video soon. If you double press it, it takes the speed of the road and automatically limits you to the speed limit.

    Hi Nikola, I am going to be making a full detailed review video of the performance seats which will hopefully be really helpful. It’s tricky to say how you will find them because we are all so different but il try my best with my own personal experience. I am 5”10 85kg and I absolutely love the seats. They are definitely harder than the normal seats but I find them nice to sit in. I have a few back issues and this is the first car I’ve ever owned where I have not experience any back pain so far. The way I see it is you can buy a nice big soft office chair and it is great to sit in and comfortable but once you start doing some proper work for a long time it’s not so comfortable, the more finer but ergonomic office chairs are much better over time. This has been the case for me with the performance seats. Because they hold me in place so we’ll and keep my back in a good supported position I think it’s really helped. This is just my own personal experience. My advice would be to try and find some to sit in and test. If your ordering your car from factory you could order with them then while waiting find a car to sit in then if you don’t like them you could change your order. Hope this all helps.

    @Mark Nicholls Hey Mark, Did you check to see if the car had the active dampering option? I think it's an option on some of the A35s so this could be why you did not feel much difference. The suspension on the A35 is very different to the 45s so it's tricky to compare the too also.

If your price range can stretch to the 45s and your looking for something comfortable I recommend checking out the E class, they are designed to be much smoother rides.

    Please please please if you do launch control, check also how fast the car is at 0-60 mph (0-100 kph) without launch control 🙏🙏🙏 I am supposed to get my CLA45s in May 2022 and was looking for that information through the entire internet but couldnt find any footage of how fast the car is at 0-100kph without launch control... I would also like to ask, how often can you do launch controls with this car? The guy at the Dealership told me, that after about 40 launch controls you have to replace the entire transmission. Is this true?

    There seems to be mixed opinions on this online. Ultimately though I’m going to follow the manufactures instructions. Both my AMGs from factory came with big stickers on the inside of the windshield saying to run the engine in the first 1000 miles. Even though it may or may not be needed anymore I’m always going to run my engines in. There’s nothing to loose running an engine In. I think it’s a good way to get used to a powerful car too. It’s not a bad thing to be very familiar and used to the car before driving it hard :)

    @ABAUTOAMG the main point is too many people don't understand how "breakin" (ring sealing) actually works. You have to load the rings relatively aggressively (that doesn't mean go to a dyno) with periodic bursts of hard throttle right away, with a cool down period (cold weather is ideal). Worst thing anyone can do is drone down the freeway to "get some miles". With all that said I believe the RS3 engine is run on a dyno straight from the factory and Mercedes may do this as well. Side note Audi has no breakin restrictions whatsoever, either forced rev limits (BMW) or guidelines. My oil and filter at 800 miles looked amazingly clean (prefer to do my own oil changes)

    Wanna know how to save 99.9 miles per gallon. Just don't start your car jk but actually. When driving somewhere hilly or somewhere on a nice downhill or just whatever you like put the car in Neutral while driving and won't break the transmission or anything even the car allows you to do that at speed and it puts the engine revs at idle it saves lot of gas. I even do it in my Mercedes and I haven't had any problems.
