In the luxury category....Audi has the longest....4 years

[dogichi]

Best you buy a car till the warranty, sell.....and buy another one yes. Ideally a 5 yr warranty will be great....but then the dealerships won't make the extra money

[metalgear2095]

Kia is 5 in the US. Two years is really pathetic. Audi come real good with that 4. Know where I'll be looking for my second car.

they give the warranty but do they honour it?

know a few people catching hell with q5s and only lawyer letters helping them

[dogichi]

It's a written contract ABA trading.....if Audi breaches it...yes lawyers' letters will force them to do it. I don't think Audi really wants to go to court and have to pay out all that money plus damages and lawyers fees. It's sad it has to come to this, but Audi has to start pulling up it's socks...especially with the amount of money people paying for these vehicles.

SS you mean...

Kia UK gives 7 years ... wish we could get that here!
What does KIA give locally?

Benz CLA: $370k.

I would go for the CLA over the C Class.

Any idea how much the CLA would cost with the Sports Package?

Corolla

[SYKO]

I got my corolla "fully loaded" as u guys say for 200k. I never had a problem with toyota. Had a yaris a couple years back and up till I got I accident had no problem. Minor problems but all addressed under warranty and fast. Only problem is dat I ready to drive my car but don't kno if is licencing or toyota dragging dey feet

Coverage was for 80,000km on the A4
Not sure if that has changed

CLA is unproven in our conditions.
Front wheel drive (new for Merc sedan) and DCT (dual clutch) could have reliability problems.
Wait for any issues to be ironed out and buy a 2nd Generation model.

It looks good in the pic though

[dogichi]

With sports package, the CLA is $375K. Because the car in such high demand in Europe prices are going up on the sports package and some of its options. Because of that also Sterling only bringing in about 20 cars for next year (that's all this 3rd world country will get from Mercedes)....after that you will have to wait till 2015. Oh and guys I know Southern Sales is the local agent for Audi......just don't want to have to type Southern Sales over and over again.

[drchaos]

3 weeks sounds a bit much for a car to be licensed. But there can be delays at the office, my car took 3 days because of some guy at the office called in sick and there was a back log.

Did you pay them all their money yet for the car?

[SYKO]

Yea I did payin full already. But they saying licensing is at fault

have a buddy waiting like 3 weeks now to get his new ford ranger licensed . same thing they tell him, problems in license office

[SYKO]

Thanks. Now I kno its not an isolated problem. Jus went in toyota and make some noise so dey actually givin me a car 2 use in the time being

[drchaos]

That was really nice of them since they did not have to do that

[cinco]

probably still a backlog from all the shutdowns with watson duke and the asbestos and stuff
has licensing start back "working" all day? or they still 8-12?

[SYKO]

Dey like dey working in reverse.

[Renaldo25]

They ever used to work in forward?
Wayyyy look how corolla cheap compared to them other brands. down to kia more expensive nowadays yes...but apart from them being cheaper and having that reputation for taking licks....you ever listen to the radio or look at who sponsoring sports teams and such? you hardly ever hear bout best auto or southern sales is always toyota trinidad and dont talk about ads...ppl will buy what they familiar with...awareness has alot to do with purchases as well...regardless of paucity of features or performance the average joe will buy something he familiar with and he believes will last for a long time...their marketing strategy is what has them flying out the showrooms...

[SYKO]

True, licensing really is a waste. I was looking at the new Cerato @205k but wen I called my rep in toyota and he gave me my price I jumped at it cuz I jus wanted a proven vehicle in my budget.

Personally I don't like the way the front of the CLA looks. It is too short and headlights are too big. Either way the current C class is at the end of its life cycle and this is the 2015 model which the CLA can't come close to. I'll definitely be saving for it.

[dogichi]

I would disagree with you on the CLA. The CLA is a pretty good looking car, especially equipped with the sports package. The shortage of this car reveals just how well this car is selling internationally. To each , there own...but I love it.

[j.o.e]

I don't like the CLA either, turned off by the fact its fwd and I think its over styled. I would have preffered if the didn't try to make such a small car look like a CLS. Back seat and trunk space impratical too. But I can see the appeal to some. C-Class ftw

[dogichi]

To me all the new Benz taking on similar styling and light design. Seeing one in person is different from watching one in a picture.
