It's the yellow messing with you. The CLA looks atrocious in the flesh. Like a turtle on wheels. Whenever I see one on the road, I think to myself, "God, what a shame. Hopefully, BMW doesn't make something like that." Yet, here we are in 2019 having this discussion.

I actually expect the BMW to be the better looking of the two cars on the road.

That being said, I don't like either of these cars for reasons you mentioned, and if I were in this segment looking for a compact car, I'd likely be on a tighter budget and not looking to break ~$25-30k.
Like I said, looks are subjective. I really like the design language - we saw other colors as well before leading the yellow - looks great to me. Compare to 2 Gran Coupe. No comparison
