Competition for the Macan?
 
Not nearly as attractive, especially with the ricer color scheme.

Kind of looks like a running shoe.

Yikes. +1.

And are these a transverse mounted I4 like the CLA? That typically implies a FWD biased split. And chances are, knowing AMG pricing, it will be a significant amount more than the Macan.

What would be the difference in cost though. Macan starting price is at 40k right?

sketchers356 01-24-2014 10:07 PM

Macan starts at $50k.

I think the Merc looks ok.

Looks like a damn Subaru. Who wants to spend 50K for a 20K car??

Yeah, I think that is a "in your face" car show paint scheme... picture it in all black and I bet it looks pretty cool.

Edit to add, if you open the link there are photos of the car in plain silver... yeah it has some boy racer in the styling... but most modern car styling is over the top anymore (IMHO).

Does the star light up in the grill like the new sedan.............how tacky!

The Macan turbo had a sticker price of 100K at the Detroit auto show...
