Thanks for the shoutout, guys! Stoked to see all your success and it's admirable you share the love. The car community is the kindest place on Earth, I swear. ZK
Just gotta say. What Yuri and Jakub do to support smaller UA-camrs publicly is nothing compared to how they help behind the scenes. The Straight Pipes are absolutely stellar humans. 🧡
Matthew Hawk one time I was swiping through Doug’s videos and all I could hear was him saying “Thiiiiisssss” a million times and it drove me insane! To the point that I don’t watch his videos anymore (I was never a big fan of his critique anyway)
Congrats to you guys for hitting 1 million subs! I watched you guys since 50,000 subs and I remember thinking not only did you guys have great chemistry which made car reviews so entertaining, but you had some serious editing/production quality as well. Love to see people who love doing what they do like you guys. Sending good vibes from Seoul.
Hey dudes, just bought an A35 and your review was a significant help in making that decision. Hope Merc knows you guys are selling cars!!!!! Cheers guys!!!
I tried racing one of these against my Veloster N here in Mississauga.. we ended up following each other to a Timmies and becoming friends! very aggresive whip
I love that y’all are helping other channels grow by promoting them! That’s what YT us all about and the car community is one of the best corners of YT because of people like y’all!
@YourTypical Asian As a millennial, I'm doing my part. My wife and I both have hatchbacks. We have never owned a crossover, only sedans and hatches. A lot of my coworkers of similar age have sedans, and very few have crossovers.
Great Canadian reps, a humble appreciation of their fans with an outpouring of gratitude for hitting their subscriber milestone, then immediately try to help others in their field reach theirs. Consistently great work guys, keep being you!
This is the only modern Mercedes I like. The taillights look blobby, but overall, not too bad. I do LOVE where Mercedes puts the disable button for the auto engine start-stop feature: immediately below the ignition. That is the perfect spot for that.
@@TheStraightPipes Im honestly not sure, but i saw a youtube video recently of a GLS i believe and they said that there is a setting in the infotainment to make it widescreen, and mercedes told them how to do it.
Mercedes are killing it in the hatch market, but ofc the A45s is the best! Also in addition if u like the golf r colors so much Mercedes started something where you can paint the car the same color as like another brand or something
I'm not sure if the best hothatch is mercedes benz but i well get ford focus rs or volkswagen golf R or maybe Hyundai veloster N. someday if i own savings lot money.
I remember I said you would hit a million subscribers last year but you eventually did and your content keeps getting better. Unlike other bigger channels who starts to slack because of their huge following. Do you think you'd ever review older and odd cars? Perhaps a Lincoln town car? 2005-2011.
@@dreygoss6515 I was like you when Zach first started but his latest review was pretty good so I've started to watch it more. Long time subscriber anyway.
I got the impression he was burned out from doing too many videos with plus reviews of new cars. He then concentrated only on special new cars. Hired Zack, started his podcast and finally got married.
I purchased the CLA 35 amg back in October preorder 2019... finally got it 2020 March 9th.. I’m happy with it, fits my 3 kids and gas mileage is great is comfort.. came out to $63,000 Canadian.. great car overall.. anyone looking at this car, I’d look into the 45.. that extra 80HP I wish I had lol... great review guys! Keep it up! 🍻
Before I purchased the 2017 Focus RS, I looked at this model AMG. It is truly an engineering gem with the power the pushed out of this 4cyl engine. It sounds great! Interior is really nice to boot.
WinkelHoof says the guy who doesn’t know it’s mk7.5... Have you been in one? It’s only 2 years old, Audi digital dashboard, the differences with the A35 is not much.
@@payasofeo69 its a huge difference. The Interior of the golf is basic af. The screen is dated, the materials are bad, and there's no special feeling. This mercedes Interior is at least 3 steps ahead.
Can't wait for the Mazda 3 2.5 Turbo coming soon. Though not a 'hot' hatch per say, it's looking good. Good chance I'll be trading in my current 3 for the new turbo. After I watch your review of it, of course!
I’m curiously awaiting this car too. I had previously owned a 2008 Mazdaspeed 3 and had kept hoping for awd with the 2.5 turbo. I own a Stinger GT2 now but would consider giving this a drive as it’s considerably cheaper.
I would probably get the Golf R over the A35 and pocket the difference. There is differently a class difference between these two so I don't know if they are necessarily competing, the price difference is substantial. I think cars would be considered in competition if the price was within maybe 5 grand max. There isn't much performance wise that separates this vs. the R so unless you really are looking for that next level luxury and the badge, it's too much of a premium IMHO. The A45 AMG however, now that is a huge leap in every aspect. Then again, I can only imagine how much more expensive that is.
It is definitely too expensive if performance is your priority. A loaded S3 with fancy paint is actually 2-3 grand cheaper than this and that A35 is still missing a few options. At that point you're about 5 grand away from an RS3. They said it's faster than the Golf R after launching it but there's almost no difference.
So there needs to be a crossover road test car review which should include -trio from grand tour -jay leno -these guys -tiff needel -car wow guy Matt Watson -many more. Keep adding to the list. The ultimate car review panel. 😂 imagine the arguments. I missed many great other reviewers.
@@FamousDMagnificent Nope, not really. More like a nice v6 or incline 6 with some decent HP. You can't be serious if you pay more than 40k for a 4 cylinder... You're crazy?!
Nice job. I can tell you guys worked so hard on each and every video. I am subbed and you all stay safe during this pandemic. We will all get through this -Justin
It's cool that you guys promote other channels so they get to 1 million since you have it it's a really good move! Makes you seem not like narcissistic youtubers which you are not and please don't let sucess change you!
A45s is what Canada needs, this one is the so-so edition. Canada gets screwed on alot of nice cars and upper models from some brands. I doubt we'll ever see the A45s, which is a shame cause the specs are much more exciting.
Thanks for the shoutout, guys! Stoked to see all your success and it's admirable you share the love. The car community is the kindest place on Earth, I swear. ZK
Only love and respect for Matt and these two amazing guys here on this channel. Your beautiful content is v helpful we need in these tough times.

I just think it's incredible to see how far the A-class has come since its Senior Minivan days.
This thing is my dream hatch, happy my favourite channel finally reviewed it
Dream small, I guess.
@@agenericaccount3935 i said hatch not a proper car lmao
@@barryallenwastaken Valid. Very valid. 🥂
Its a great car. Only in north america you think a hatch is not a real car..lol.
@@WinkelHoof its down to personal choices lmao, you see it as u wish
So happy to finally see a nice, long, low hatchback! A class styling looks amazing on a hatch.
Totally agree with the headlights. They should’ve done something done something different for the E and S-Class.
I saw it On Bloor st. I thought, "wow, nice colour" & realized it was you & you pop-poped for me. now this car looks good & sounds good. 👍
That’s sick
I woulda turned into a little fan girl lol
I wish we got this in the States, but we don’t!! 😫🥺
Yuri with his 100th rendition of “horsepower and torque!!!” 🤣
WE got the A35 as a sedan
Yea they gave us a boring Sedan version instead of the cool Hatch. Just like we got the Audi RS3, but not the cool Hatachback verison.
We did get the GLA AMG hatch though
Take a shot every time they say “real AMG”
RIP liver
I’m already sick 🤕
The wing they put on the Golf R killed me😂😂😂
"This isn't to carry a basketball team or something". I died

Straight Pipes is the most Canadian channel ever, asking us to subscribe to other peoples' channels to help them hit milestones.
I cry every time I see them review a hatch or wagon we won’t get in the US.
@YourTypical Asian It's all the boomers who want SUV's. Meillennials can hardly afford new cars as is.
They don't get affordable V8 cars though so it evens out
It’s just a majority of buyers
@YourTypical Asian As a millennial, I'm doing my part. My wife and I both have hatchbacks. We have never owned a crossover, only sedans and hatches. A lot of my coworkers of similar age have sedans, and very few have crossovers.
Jabari It’s people buying dumb sedans over wages and hatchbacks. Suvs are good. Wagons are good, hatchbacks are good. Sedans, no boring!

Eyy I've been hoping you guys would review this. Less and less hot hatches in 2020 but glad this one exists!
Whatever Yuri is doing with horse power and torque... Keep it going for a whole video.
Not going to lie this was one of my favorite episodes in a long time. Sweet vid
1:36 wow I'm glad y'all are paying it forward...I thought I was already subscribed to The Smoking Tire 🤔
I am now!
StraightPipes you guys have no idea how long I’ve waited for you to review this car.. because I plan on getting very soon
can't wait for a mercedes e53 amg review
Awesome vid there bruv.,luv the channel. Appreciate the cinematography and narrative skills on the vids.
0:25 just look at Yuri's face. Feels like he is the one making the engine noises ROFL 🤣🤣🤣

You can make apple carplay widescreen, but there is a setting in the infotainment that allows it to do that. By standard it isnt widescreen.
What setting. Tell me
@@TheStraightPipes Im honestly not sure, but i saw a youtube video recently of a GLS i believe and they said that there is a setting in the infotainment to make it widescreen, and mercedes told them how to do it.

Only CLA 45 in canada.😈
We get neither :(
Matt that’s true lol
Lol rip yanks
Mercedes are killing it in the hatch market, but ofc the A45s is the best! Also in addition if u like the golf r colors so much Mercedes started something where you can paint the car the same color as like another brand or something
It’s still not available with a manual
Niko Moin you can thank people who keep. Using SUVs and ignore manuals
A35 the hottest hot hatch now?
Not for the price cost way too much.
I think so!
Absolutely YES!
I'm not sure if the best hothatch is mercedes benz but i well get ford focus rs or volkswagen golf R or maybe Hyundai veloster N. someday if i own savings lot money.
waiting for that mazda 3 turbo hatch
The Smoking Tire 2 camera angles is the best on UA-cam. Looks & feels crazy on a 65in TV.
Attempts launch control: "I should probably put it in drive..." :-D
I remember I said you would hit a million subscribers last year but you eventually did and your content keeps getting better. Unlike other bigger channels who starts to slack because of their huge following. Do you think you'd ever review older and odd cars? Perhaps a Lincoln town car? 2005-2011.
For sure
I love this hatch just wish we could get it here in America. Definitely would trade in my Nissan Versa Note for this.
A Nissan Versa Note was one of the cheapest hatchbacks available at the time lol.
No one would take your nissan for this.
Ya let’s trade my 5K Nissan for a 65k Mercedes shut up man 😂
You’d trade a Note for a Mercedes A35? That take balls brooooo‼️
Haha... You can save your money.
I’ll say it again, every review you guys top your excitement and eagerness!!! HP AND TQ
that wing shakes like an amazon generic fits-all-cars cheap ricer wing/spoiler
Agreed. Thats definitely not normal. Thinking that press car got abused at one point..
Or just that it's only an appearance package so they cheaped out on it
they all do this unfortunately
Been a sub since 400K and what I always enjoy is the genuine verbal banter back and forth. Makes me LOL every episode.
Its a shame you dont get the A45s. It is amazingly fast, and launches so hard. I hope you get to test it sometime.
AYYYYYYY opening cinematic :D Also, Yuri: "DOWN SHIFT DOWN SHIFT POP POP POP" XD
What, "The Smoking Tire" isn't at 1 million yet? I swear he was at least at 3 or 4 by now!
He's the opposite of mainstream where is these guys are mostly mainstream. Nothing wrong with either of them, just 2 mostly different audiences.
I thought the same. Probably we remember Matt Farah from The Drive, thus, inflating the numbers in our heads.
Another Thing is Most people don’t watch the smoking tire unless Matt Reviews them (I’m most people)

I love ever y single videos ye guys make. Also I love your music choice. I have put a few songs ye used on my playlist. This one is the best.
All hot hatches should be manual imo cause it's the perfect amount of power to handle with a clutch
No more manuals Bc people are killing them with SUVs and shit like that
@@SM-1010 yes it's pretty shitty
@@NeoHCgbz Majority of Europe drive manual, so no it's not
