There are also some alternate wheel options. Plus you left out the Attention Assist, Lake Keeping Assist, and Distronic Plus which may be deciding factors for me over the Q3.
It may come down to pricing of the option and the bottom line price. I want it all except for AMG, but may need to scale back to target spending limit.
Just what is available on the US info site, a variety of 18" and 19" (some AMG). I particularly like the 18-inch twin 5-spoke alloys with lustrous black/polished finish. Some something similar on a C63(?) and it looked great. The outside face of the spokes was polished aluminum and the other surfaces were in black. I do not like the all black rim but this was nice.
these are not ALL the options, these are the options that I AM interested in. Feel free to peruse the packages and post what it is you're interested in purchasing....

Test drove a Q3 yesterday, and the GLA had better be d*mn good to compete. So far the GLA is leading with Adaptive Cruise Control, Attention Assist, and Collision Avoidance, and trailing on seating height from the ground. No info on when they will actually be here to test drive, and expect a looong lead time for delivery of custom spec.
yea they are quite special, I've even become a bit privy to the X1 and that new Lincoln MKC is catching my eye as well. Its just such an elegant package and crammed full of kit, value looks stellar.
was never much of a lincoln guy aside from their older vehicles, i'd look into that but when you've been so used to german vehicles it's hard to get away from them .
The reason is likely three factors; style, image, and history of reliability. The Lincoln front teeth bared grill turns me off.
If a car is considered more than just a transport vehicle then style become important and is a very personal preference. Another example, Volvo makes very safe and good cars, but I could not live with the interior design. Maybe it would grow on me but I have my doubts.
At the outset I just hated the interior of the GLA, CLA, B-class, and A-class with the round air vents and stuck on display. It is still not my preferred choice but I have mellowed and can live with it. If the GLA becomes my next car and I may even come to like it.
Not for anything but the MKC is downright elegant, and the interior is one of the key things that is drawing me in currently. More car, more kit, similar money. Its tough...
My problem is I can't accept their designs, Cadillac is the only american luxury car maker i can really see myself getting into if i ever go that route.
I wonder why the Sports Package/GLA body kit do not have a foglight option...can't decide if I would sacrifice looks for functionality (I love the light that fogs give off in my B class in the city).
