I would think that Edmunds would generally make it a policy that people who create posts for What's Hot would be required to drive all of the cars in the fleet. Not only are you commenting upon the cars you drive, but frequently making comparisons among all of them. So you should have to drive all of them.

I've said it before, the CLA is not a bad car. In fact, it's actually quite a good car that does a lot of things really well. The problem with it is the 3-pointed star on the nose. As a Benz, the CLA falls far short of what people (rightfully) expect.

Put on a set of Bridgestone Drive Guards or regular tires (w/flat repair kit) and the vehicle changes completley. Not a perfect car by any means but optioned wisely.... a good car for the money. New delivery CLA 250's with the "comfort" suspension which now comes stock on 17" wheel cars makes it even closer to what people (rightfully) expect.
