You completely missed the point.
BMW M knows exactly how the CLA drives as I have posted my own impressions after a long drive.
So they are not going to make the same mistake.
With all due respect Scott, BMW is not immune from the laws of physics.

There is only so much that can be done with 2 liters and 4 cylinders. I don't believe in magic. You may be able to produce the power, but you will never produce the drivability, throttle response nor will you ever overcome the hideous turbo lag of said tiny 2 liter engine. Let's not even talk sound ...
