C240 Xle!?!?!

I found this unique special edition C240 "XLE" while browsing for cars in my area. I wonder what sets this apart from the rest other than the goofy grille, crooked star, sticker on the side, and badge on the rear. Has some nice 07 wheels though. http://tinyurl.com/28ro5o

Mistake on the seller's part but calling Toyota losers =

Some people want to keep the Toyota name tag and not be associated with Lexus as its being too showy. Thats what my uncle did, he didn't like those people who showed off being in their high horse thinking they are ballas and the ****. Kinna what your doing right now right. Looking down on the Toyota owners? Whats wrong with a convertible Camry? And this is why other forum members are seeing Mercedes/BMW owners as snobby. You can see this as an attack or not but its not my intention, just pointing out people have personal preference and name brands doesn't solve everything.

The only XLE I'd want would be the Camry XLE or the Sienna XLE Limited.
