    The lack of touchscreen infotainment setup is pretty bad at this day and age, granted the next year models are receiving an update the spinny circle control setup is pretty lame/lackluster for the price point. Other than that I don't mind the interior, nothing to write home about but for an entry level MB, not bad.
    Both my E's don't have touchscreen. Refresh gets it for MY2021 meaning all new E's you buy today have that shitty non touch interface. It works well for the most part but CarPlay is an exercise in patience. It's the one thing that keeps my cars from being perfect. MB was way the fuck too slow in transitioning to touchscreen.

    Have to measure it to find out, won’t be able to tell in pictures. The 400 is 190cm in length And 70cm wide, while the 450 is 220cm in length and 80cm wide.

    $400 is fair, the boxes are $850 new. Carriers are $475 new. Great deal for anyone that wants the box and carrier for the GLA. The factory carrier has a bump stop for the sunroof so you can crack it open slightly for ventilation.

    Assuming you have the 450 that is haha.
    Confirmed 80x220... also I believe the black 450 is just north of $1k new? But yeah come and get it haha

    It's a badge and I think it's the only AWD with 250lb/ft of torque at this price point.

    3 services for $1K if you don't want surprises. Toyota charges the same anywhere for their prepaid package.
    For me it checks off three boxes: AWD, DCT, and under $40k OTD. The only thing that turns me off is the badge haha

    I don't need a new vehicle now, but I figured by the time I do I'm paying the same amount or more for a car with lesser options. And coming from a 2008 Subaru Impreza, the interior looks fucking glamourous

    Awesome. OK so who bought a GLA and wants the roof box + rails for $400? That combo is $1300 new.

    Have to tell them the benefits! They open from both sides... and have higher speed ratings than the Thule branded boxes (these are Thule though)

    Being able tho use the sunroof is the big differentiator. But yea, this was my first roof box, I just assumed they all open from both sides.

    The box yes, the rails no. The rails are all specific to each model so that the sunroof stopper works properly. The mounting system is also completely different depending on model. Some screw into the frame, some clip onto roof rails.

    Signed, pick up Tuesday
    Are you still picking it up Tuesday? I have to wait until next month now because of how quick they sold (103 units in 3 days), and they all need the rims fixed.

    As far as I know it’s still on for tomorrow, I got a call around 6 tonight from someone there about the Mercedes me emails I was about to get and he would go over everything tomorrow

    It’s written on my form that all rims need to be fixed and car is to be cleaned before pickup so I assume it’s ok?

    Bill got everything turned around today for me insurance wise so hopeful it’s not for nothing

    I also showed the deals to one of my guys in BC, him and his wife bought a GLA and are having it shipped out to Vancouver

    I feel bad for people that purchased a CLA or GLA in the last year as the influx of these vehicles on the cheap is going to tank resale value.

    Resale value probably tanked when they first became car2go. Knew someone with a b-class who said that happened to them.

    GLA's were minty fresh
    CLA's were in the fleet briefly. I don't think there was one there without some level of wheel damage, lol.

    Yeah, every single one I saw had curb rash. On the passenger front wheel, and most on the back one as well. I looked at 8 before I picked the one with the least overall damage, which oddly enough was one of the higher km ones.

    Generally speaking, people are shit drivers.
