Mercedes-Benz has taken the bold step to venture downmarket with the new-for-2014 CLA-Class, which starts at a paltry $29,900 ($36,545 as tested). So, what does $30k get you in new a Mercedes-Benz? In terms of powertrain, the CLA is propelled by a 2.0 liter turbocharged inline four cylinder engine, making 208 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque.

Winding Road Video: 2012 Chrysler 300 SRT8

Powered by a 6.4-liter Hemi V-8, Chrysler’s new 300 SRT8 is, to put it simply, a beast. There’s no better way of illustrating that fact than by taking it out for a few acceleration runs on the wet roads around the Winding Road offices.
