@adonnis - pull up, there's refreshments
I like the CLA's design but . . I feel it's not what the company is about. It's Mercedes rendition of an economy car . . and will probably carry the Mercedes repair costs with it
The CLA is basic... the only thing it has going for it is it's looks. The interior isn't up to Mercedes standard, weak engine, cramped interior etc
The 3 series is nice but only if you add some options to it, and then the price goes up REAL quick.
TLX is a very decent car, offers a lot of value as it's not as expensive but offers a lot of gadgets and it'll probably be more reliable than the other 2.

CLA is a garbage car, any mercedes rep/salesperson will tell you that too
Acura TL or TLX. The CLA is certified garbage.
The CLA imo is horrible. I considered buying one, took it for a test drive and couldn't stand it.
It has the Mercedes symbols but doesn't "feel" like a Mercedes. Not premium feeling AT all imo.
The 3 series is legit. Its won countless awards over the years and people love them. Really can't go wrong.

2016 Accord looks real good.
You basically get the same car with all the same options as an Acura without paying that little extra Acura "Premium". The only thing you sacrifice is an "A" badge and most common folk can't distinguish Honda's from Acura's anyway.
3-Series will rise in price once you start adding options. I won't even make a statement on the CLA cause that car is not even worth the mention.

I like the Acura ILX/TLX. They look better than the Accord. 3 series is too expensive and the CLA is

Actually, the Accord top of the line is easily the best bang for the buck. The gap between that car and the TLX isn't worth the 6k difference, imo.
