Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class vs Toyota GR86 Comparison

It has been a rollercoaster experience to own the Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class. The double-clutch transmission has been the biggest disappointment for me. I have driven various cars in the last twenty years, including cost-effective ones but I have never encountered the transmission to be so bad. Every shift in this vehicle feels painfully noticeable whether downshifting or upshifting. In traffic jams, driving the Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class becomes unbearable. The rough shifts of the transmission give me the feeling that I amm driving with an inexperienced driver who is learning for the first time to operate a manual gearbox.

The GR86 is the best sports car you can buy on a budget. I understand that most people buying sports cars don’t have a budget or don’t care for one, but I do, and I am so glad I got this. This model, in its red variant, is such a beautiful car. Even before you look at the performance, which is phenomenal, this car is a piece of art in itself. The specifications are impressive and very cohesive, which makes the car a very well-made, stable, reliable, and value-for-money vehicle. The speeds you can get in this car are really impressive, and I hope I will keep this car in my garage forever.
