that is one fucking nice car. I like this design better than most of the more expensive models.
Love this guy, it’s like if Ryan Reynolds did car reviews 😂
Love the front end. Mad props for not blurring the license plate. Like a boss
It's what Derek wanted, and it's Derek's got. Live with it.
Alright scrolling down through the comments didn't see as many thank you as there should be. Thank you for giving us a review on your car, very well done especially pointing out the areas you don't like. Keep up the good work man.
He doesn't need any "thanksgiving"
Earned all the respect he need 😎😎
i like the all black but then the contrast with the lovely cream leather
could we get an update on how the car is now that you have had it for a bit now?
Thank you Derek D for the review !
I love the way you present it. Keep up the good work ❤️
Even though it's the cheapest car, It looks awesome, and mercedes didn't make it look like a "bargain car", I love it
btw: The place where you live looks amazingly nice
Derek D reviews are the best.
Saw this video when it was released and m watching today and strangely I remember every detail of this video. Loved it
Love that car!
Cool video bro!
Keep it up!
You always rock the show!
Thanks Derek for this awesome Review! WE just got a Certified Pre-Owned of the same, and you are so right and I wholeheartedly agree with you,. but the Pros outweighs the Cons and I love my CLA250!
Beautiful car Derek D! I really like the interior!
I had a VW cc for a brief couple months (owner was tight on money and I temporarily took over payments) I've been looking for one of my own ever since but the cla might be even better. Derek, how does the Mercedes compare to the cc?
Im at 2:49 and Derek gave so much information that any other car review show would never tell about this kind of simple stuff but at the same time it really matters and he tells directly about the issue or what's not good about it. Really honest review DerekD. I don't know if Mercedes gave you discount on this Merc but you review it #LIKE A #BOSS (c)Rick Ross
Derek D que buen FLDtour!
I just wanted to give you all good feedback but also to suggest that YOU Derek D make more (a lot more) FLDtours. I like your honesty discussing facts because you put it from a "normal" perspective. But what I like the most is that you judge a car (and it's style) personally but also objectively ...and it's also so much fun to watch! Like it like it...
Keep it up in there FLD Crew
GOOD review , Thank you maybe get ready to buy one today. We'll see
great job as always...
Awesome Review buddy. Enjoyed it!
I don't usually like the CLA but i really like it in the colours you have
Been waiting for this Mr. D
this guy's hilarious! subscribed, keep up the good work man
Hey Derek... a quick question about the CLA, being built in Hungary do you find the quality and overall finish of the car to differ from the German or other countries that built Merc's? Such as B and C class?
Awesome review, dawg. Thanks
£17,875 in the US £24,775 in the UK, fuck I hate living in the UK sometimes.
Ok not the most powerful car but sure its a smooth, comfortable, well equipped car, some people just don't get that its not all about HP. Nice ride but could do with bigger rims.
Tell me about it, Here in Australia the CLA250 is $74 000AUD ($69 000USD, £41 600) drive away that is with AWD though and sat nav standard. But still more than double the cost just to have a right hand drive here in Australia. Even the CLA200 is over $70 000.
love the review and love the car bro more cal vids!!
Nice review, I like how funny you make your reviews XD keep it up
great review, Love it
Is that little black box on the front reg plate something for the radars...?
And as always DD, well done! Beauty
Hey Derek, which plasti dip(brand) did you use for your wheels looks cool. Because if yours lasted through snow and salt etc. I live in so-cal. I guess that plasti dip will be bullet proof for my wheels. Great video tho and great car.
Hey Derek D when you going to review your Merc CLA?
I would also like a comparison between this and the CC... literally 50/50 between the two. Only real issue i've heard over and over for the cla is how slow the shifting is. Please do a CLA/CC comp if you can.
I hate the start stop on my car, I feel you DD.
Thinking about trading my 2018 Chevy Malibu for this car.. part of me feels like it would be a step down because my current car is a push to start, keyless entry and is a newer model but I really love the style of this benz. If you are reading this what do you think I should do?
Yes you get the bigger screen with nav, but you also get voice, backup camera etc... get that 2.0 flashed! Big hp gains.
Love your car Derek D..
Hello, thinking of importing it to Europe, want to ask if the turning light signals in front and Back are yellow or red?
Miss you guys
Great video Derek. Keep up the great work and ignore the haters.
I like it bro. How long do u keep a car before u usually get a new one?
Nice Derek D, the crew of FLD should do a FLDetour episode!
But you didnt talk about the transmission being right behind the paddle shifters. Are you ok with that. I feel like that can cause a problem in some ways if you're in manual mode
I like your car and the review.. Great job..
what about the space in the back seats! Is there enough room for AK to fit in there somewhat comfortably?
I’m thinking about getting one I’ve been wanting a Benz I love this car
just got a 2014 w/ low mileage. I love it so far! you won’t regret it in my opinion
@@amaandatoo6110 I'm getting the 2014 CLA200 as well! Super excited. What do you love the most!?
@@GursimranBedi my first benz so I love everything haha. The car is very fun to drive, and I got the AMG wheels so it looks rly good as well. I get a ton of compliments
@@amaandatoo6110 ooo nice nice same I got nice looking 19” alloy wheels as well! How’s the maintenance costs seeing as it’s 7 years old
@@GursimranBedi just got it so I haven’t had to do anything yet.... we’ll see
Couldn't agree more about the screen to frame ratios lol.. I thought I was the only one
I have a question for you FastLaneDaily : Are these the stock tinted windows or some aftermarket stuff? Need to know as I don't know if I should order the tinted windows, as they cost about 300€ in Europe.
Thx in advance guys!
never mind! 07:32 :D
I have the same car and love it..
Also have a 2005 SL 500 convertible.. again.. love it..!!
Hello from Toms River…!!
Makes me wish I would have gotten my Civic as an 'Si'. I just didn't know how to drive standard and didn't have the time to. :/ I missed out on 60 horses.
Speaking of the hydraulic jacks for the hood, my 2002 Jeep Liberty has hydraulic supports for the hood x)
I'm jealous DerekD! Awesomeness! But I'm curious, what's the drag coefficient specs?
Is that a laser shifter on the front plate? how well do those work?
The head room in the back is just way too small which is why I went with the bigger C class and I feel like the entry level CLA 180 is completely underpowered. Well it depends on what you expect from your car but the 180 looks waay more powerful than it actually is which throws me off a little
Which one is faster your car. Or a 2005 c230k. Let me know soon
What's with all the haters! "Uhh Derek I would've got..." My car is the exact opposite of this, but I still give Derek props for the clean ride. Real car guys respect each other's rides (except ricers).
got one!, Derek, you should have gotten the sport package!
How is the road noise? In a lot of written reviews, reviewers note the bad road noise
Does it have a sunroof ?
loved it when erica sat in the back just to say torque again!
And the car is cool, no doubt. But we all see you as one of the most car loving guys in the world and expected you to have something a lot cooler... old Mustang or 911, a Lotus or something like that. I think this explains why so many hate in the comments to this video.
Nice ride! Im about to plastidip my wheels too but in gunmetal metallic to match my grey car.
Question. What is that black thing on your front license plate?
that's EZPass! thanks for watching man!
Not too bad, but I have a top spec 2014 forester xt and your video only made me feel better about that choice. (I live in a rural area and put on up to 700 miles a week. I don't think a merc would do well going to oil rigs)
which phone windshield mount is that? is it any good? is it detachable?
should I get it black and black at 15k with 150k/m on it
Wow, Nice car- pretty bold puttin it out there so haters can hate on it. I love love love the two-tone with the ivory seats! I also agree bout the game they play with the little screen to get ya to spring for navi. Triple black exterior seems so Derek D. But there's gotta be a ton of Tri-black Mercs on the shore, so just be sure ya hop in the right one. Sweet ride.
Derek D, you should have gotten the sport package, car looks naked without it! I got my CLA250 about 3 weeks ago and loving it, i took almost all the options including navi and paid lots more than base, no regrets thus far i knew what the compromises were before i bought it.
You should make a video with Larry Kosilla- AMMO NYC, detailing it! I noticed some swirls already!
Getting mine this year
4:15 holy $#!%, you've got your air-con set at 60 degrees! It must've been hot in NJ.
Great review Derek D but you gotta plasti dip the chrome trim!!!
Derek. If you're happy with your car, that's all that matters. You earned the money for it, fuck the critics.
Derek, why didn't you instead get something like a toyota avalon which would have way more options and it's comfortable or a camaro or mustang for much cheaper with loads of options or even an frs/brz?
I feel you Derek I can't believe they skimped on the hydraulic lifts for the hood and for gods sake if you install a start stop system on your car use an electric a/c compressor!!! I'm a MB owner too. I own a 2008 ML63 AMG. My hood supports are hydraulic but the hood doesn't extend to 90 degrees vertical like my old 2004 E320 did. Its a handy feature when doing work under the hood.
149 MPH?!?!? Wow, thats extremely impressive given all the other stats
beautiful car
i have that little noise in my c 180, its coming from the rear seats , its really annoying!
Nice music choice! I can recognize Pink Floyd from the smallest of samples!
Sweet ride Good Sir! I love it's styling, & MB did a good job for making the price point work effortlessly. I had read that the front door arm rests are a little small/short for taller drivers though. Thanks for the review & the tip re: the rims!
WHAT IS THE COLOUR CODE?
I just imagined ericka un the trunk saing torque haha. Great car Derek.
What are you driving Now?
I love Benz. I love this car, the way it looks and the price is jut right. I love that interior, the color, the design, the leather. I love how the seats go up to the sealing. just love it. Except that stupid screen and the hood kick stand. I rather pay more not to have a screen at all, and I would get after market hydrolic stands for my hood.
Great car but where did you get that shirt? I need it in my life!
Wait what is the wheel color thing ? I want that
Awesome style. I mean review style. And I just love the way u impersonate keyboard professors😆 like mister Mackey from south park, or whatever is his last name spelled 😊
Working on cars I prefer to have a hood bar because hydraulics do give out and it’s annoying
Love Belmar!
How much did it cost to plasti dip the wheels?
What is that thing on the front license plate?
Hey DD I saw you last summer outside djais when you were leaving i said what up you shook my hand and thanked me for watching...awesome vids and a cool dude over all. Are you going to Hunka Bunka @ Djais this Sat? If so which bar? #WestBar
Clean wip mr D.
Why hasn't AK done an FLDTour yet? He should do one of his new car.
But is it grounded to the ground?
It's clear that this channel needs more viewers. Derek needs a raise so he can get the AMG version with navigation. Tell your friends to subscribe for the sake of Derek's car.
Wheels look to small, and the rear just doesn't get me.
I think you were better with the new CC, or the hatch version. That's just me...
Nice review though, not biased!
i actually wouldnt mind thr stick its just extra protection because the hydroliks can fail. and the stick wont
Why didn't you get the AMG version?
Nice style I like it too
Question,
Derek D. - Do you happen to know if the 4Matic version comes with the stick to lift the hood? 'cause that would be the low point.
- Also,.. Did you brought Erica along just to say Torque? ;)
yes, even the AMG version uses the hood stick
