I liken the CLA45 as an Audi RS3 that isn't made of vanilla pudding; its AWD and chassis combo is set up to be very neutral on the road and track, plus it doesn't look like a generic bar of soap.

I think the M235i will appease the RWD crowd very well. It's a rounded package that represents the roundel's core values without any frivolities.

They've made plenty of comparisons between the A45 and M135i so I think we have a fair idea of what to expect when it comes to these two.
+1 although I do find the M235i vs CLA45 AMG to be slightly different. It seems that BMW has made the M235i better than the M135i (see it has variable sport steering and M adaptive suspension standard). Reviews I have read so far are not as impressed with the CLA45 AMG than with the A45 AMG.
