Not every carmaker can afford to make a really good full-size luxury SUV and keep it up to date, but in the compact activity vehicle segment, the competition is really strong. This is why Mercedes gave a GLK-Class a bolder look for the 2013 model year.
The 2013 Mercedes-Benz GLK350 went under Consumer Reports' radar for a while, but now they tested and liked it. And what's not to like? While most of the compact SUVs out there are ditching V6 engines, Mercedes has a very good 3.5-liter that gets reasonable mileage and produces 302 hp and standard all-wheel drive

$38 MSRP (for the GLK350) sounds like a lot, but you do get the right trim inside. So what if it's not a full-size and is a little tight in the back? That sexy Mars Red color you see in the video is absolutely free.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s.
