The reason I even looked up videos on this car is because I saw one for the first time today. And I must say I am surprised at how small these cars are. I thought I knew someone a while back that had one and it was much larger.
+Gold Wing Just for clarification, you weren't looking at the Mercedes CLA were you? Those are definitely much smaller. The CLS, like the one in our video, is a decent size. It just has minimal headroom when entering and exiting due to the coupe-like styling. Thank you for your comment.
I want to ask for advice please. Im thinking its either this used CLS 400 , mileage is 178,000 km. Or Porsche macan, mileage is 106,00 km. Cls is around 27,000$ and Porsche is 30,000$. Please let me know what u think?
Thank you, Karolis Tuskevicius. The 2015 CLS 400 is a beautiful and good driving car that came with some really nice tech for the time, so many of the features should still be considered up-to-date right now. As long as you don't need the latest and greatest in tech, you'd be happy in that regard. Obviously, try to find a car with the lowest mileage possible that you can afford, as well as try to find out the service history of the car. Many times, a Mercedes dealer can check the VIN number and see if and what maintenance was done by a Mercedes dealership. Some Mercedes cars can be temperamental if they do not have the proper routine maintenance performed. If you can find a certified pre-owned car, that would be even better. Hope this helps and thanks for watching!
@@LovepreetAujla how has it been since you got it? I'm thinking of getting cls400 trim around that year right now. Is it worth it or one should rather look at another year/trim?
I'd much rather have a Porsche 911 Turbo for around that kind of money! What were they thinking on those door pin locks?? I thought the 90's were over! Great video and detail. I will be watching more often.
Ron Prince Unfortunately, Ron Prince, this isn't the only Benz we've seen with these, although so far it is the cheapest. Stay tuned, as there's more to come! Thank you for the kind words and thanks for watching, too!
Yes, the CLS is significantly larger than the CLA, Bankhead S550BuildTV. All of Mercedes' A-class variants are their smallest models, while the "S" variants are their largest. This holds true for both the cars and SUVs. Hope this helps and thanks for watching!
I truly appreciate that. And I do do this for a living, so if you get a chance, feel free to check out some of my other reviews, too. Thanks for watching!
Nice ride, however i still prefer the more menacing 12’-14’ generations. I have a 2008 E550 and 2012 E350 and im selling one of them to upgrade to a red CLS550 in spring of 2020. I was considering the 09’ porsche 987 cayman BUT for the money u pay u get so much more car with the cls550 n its few yr newer. 😃
Melvin Paygane is the cls reliable? I want a cls500 but is the engine reliable for daily driving and all year around? Or shouls i go for a diesel? I heard that the 320 diesel is one of the best and reliable engines mercedes have?
Eric. The cls500 is based on the e class platform so its as reliable as the eclass. The cls500 one the most reliable M113 engine. Im not familiar with the diesel engines but while i was doing my research, i came to realization the the e320 is one of the best diesel engine as well. If that comes in the cls version then i would say it is as well. That said, its 2 totally different engine in terms of power n torque.
Melvin Paygane okey thanks for a wuick answear! I saw bow that the 2011-2018 chassi is far to expensive to buy with the v8 engine but the 320d would be perfect with good milage👍
Wow! First we have to say that we've come a LONG way since recording this video. LOL Now in regards to your question, yes, these are referred to as "coupes," akinsheye1. The German manufacturers coined the name first for their 4-door sloping roofline cars (and now SUVs, ie - GLE Coupe) and then everyone followed suit with their 4-door, sloping roofline cars. Hope this helps and thanks for watching!
This car looks beautiful but for benz the inside looks not cheap but undone compare to the Bmw 6 series gran coupe .... and yes you can say it wit me .... its leather 😂
definitely worth over $ 80 k! real high quality materials like the wood, metal, aluminium & semi-aniline leather ! 80plus k is definitely justifiable , tbh it's rather cheap !!
I own a 2014 E350.
I'll step up to that model when I'm done with E class.
Loving that, 'Get the camera!' shot at the end. Great, informative video, sir!
Cls the best Mercedes ever very stylish and the light stunning 😍

AutoAcademics once you get into the car it feels basically as big as the E class sedan it’s based off of. Plenty of space inside this ride
The first gen cls looked good in its day
Very articulate, and knows the facts! Looking at a '15 as we speak! 72k on the dial but no problems. Your review was spot on!
@@davejohnson3860 I appreciate that. Happy shopping and thanks for watching!

Beautiful car! Available in 4matic?
Constantine Joseph Yes, Constantine Joseph. The CLS400, CLS550, and the AMG CLS63 S are available with the 4MATIC drivetrain. Thanks for watching!
I'm kind of in between tell me honestly which is better 4matic or not, 4matic and tell me why.Thanks.
Well obviously 4 matic its a 8k option
What a great review! You my friend have Gained a sub!
Thank you very much, xxthehuskycaboosexx! We truly appreciate the support.
Im going for a test drive Friday, it’s got 72,000km (not miles). Hope it’s great
Good luck, Felix Gainey. We hope you find one to buy. Thanks for watching!

it's a mercedes cls , a high end merc not a cheap merc like the a,b,c, etc. $ 80 plus k is definitely justifiable for this car , tbh it's cheap.
Im torn between porsche macan 2015 second hand or the CLS400 ? Any advice?
Is this model bigger than the cla 300 models
Yes, the CLS is significantly larger than the CLA, Bankhead S550BuildTV. All of Mercedes' A-class variants are their smallest models, while the "S" variants are their largest. This holds true for both the cars and SUVs. Hope this helps and thanks for watching!
I have this same vehicle except in the 550 4MATIC version.. those headlights and the screen are not 2015 so this has to be a facelift model..
2015 was the changeover facelift year👍🏻
Y not get the cls 550 ?
Because Mercedes sent us the CLS 400 for review, 901 truck driver Remy. This wasn't our car. Thanks for watching.
Awesome car review. I hope you do that for a living because you have a talent. Best review of any car I’ve seen. Thanks.
I truly appreciate that. And I do do this for a living, so if you get a chance, feel free to check out some of my other reviews, too. Thanks for watching!
I don’t even think the 550 was available this year. If you wanted a V8, you had to go into the AMG options. CL63/65.

This year they destroyed the styling of the front end. The lights are something you could find on a Honda.
Yes, and wheels are so round.
@@Mike61259 🤣🤣
Those door numb pins are super wack for a modern car
Yup. Fortunately, Mercedes has changed them on their more current cars. Well, except for their cabriolets. Thanks for watching, III Payne!

Nice car, but no thanks...80k?? Lol
+Abdullah Eid That's $84,140 to be exact. LOL Thanks for watching!
+AutoAcademics That's just too much money for a c class. And in 6 years, itll only be worth less than ~30k
definitely worth over $ 80 k! real high quality materials like the wood, metal, aluminium & semi-aniline leather ! 80plus k is definitely justifiable , tbh it's rather cheap !!
+Abdullah Eid btw it's a cls class not c class , c class around $35 k
+lolNEED55 no way. I'd rather buy a tesla with that kind of money.
This brother doesn’t look like he’s golfed a single day in his life.
