LOL good luck.

With options the CLA is nearly as expensive as an M3 Saloon list price.
In Belgium, the TCO of the M135i and A45 are the same seen the smaller and more frugal engine of the Merc. You pay considerably more, but you have to pay substantially less on recurrent taxes. This would indicate that the Merc will have a higher trade in value later also. So higher pricing is at least where I live, no argument against the Merc.
