Lol, what do you need 600hp for? The AMGs are sexy cars, I'll admit, but for 100k+...just buy a Hellcat and a ES350 instead

The GS is also midsize, but more performance oriented than the ES. Gorgeous car, rides nice...not the most sporty but still fun.

So then what would you consider the LS? Extra full size? Executive to the executive?

E300 -> turbo 4
AMG E43 -> twin-turbo V6
AMG E63 -> twin-turbo V8

The title is, verbatim, "On C300 vs. E350: there's no contest." But I think the E350 part is a typo.

To me, C class was always entry level to me. I can remember when it was 190E which looked like sub compact car. The CLA is budget car to me. People can label whatever they want. If they are happy and satisfied, that is what is important.

C-Class = entry-level luxury sedan

CLA-Class = "let's make a cheaper sedan comparable to a Fusion or Malibu or Altima, put that star on it, and watch our sales numbers go up!"
