I actually quite like the new WRX and STI. Not ashamed that it won really, it's less expensive and has the performance. This was a performance car test after all...
The CLA on the opposite end is a laughing stock. It's over styled to the point that it's just plain ugly. It reminds me of a German version of a riced out honda civic. Crappy styling loaded with aggressive looks that try to make it look better. The front overhang is terrible, the back droops down like its melting, and the belt line is way too high. Not only that but it's an AMG car based on a fwd platform... Yuck. Oh and forget about getting one in a proper manual transmission.
The bmw is the far better product for driving pleasure. It's nearly as quick, (and this isn't even a full fledged ///M model) it's rwd, you can get it in manual, the styling is classic and proper BMW, the engine and exhaust sound is great, and it's far less expensive.
The BMW is the no brainer against the CLA. If you don't have the money, then that STI is a good choice.
