Is it just the light, or does he have tan interior?

I think it's just a std c-class with AMG bodykit. Look sharp though. How many of you here prefer it without the star on the grille? IMO it will look cleaner.

personally i like the blackedout grille with just the star left in chrome.. i'm not a fan of blacking the whole grille out because it just makes the car look plane and bland... the "floating" star looks nice in the sea of black.....

just my opinion....

Are you saying that because of the interior color?

Just curious how you can tell? I kind of like the star on the grill. I think it looks sporty that way. But I also like the way BrabusCclass's car looks with just the black grill. I guess I would have to see them both in person to decide.

Yes, the interior color kinda of give it away, but also the front brake caliper seem not as big as a c32 should have. Turns out I was right There's some guy over at c32life.com who said it was a C200 with bodykit.

The star on the grill seems kinda of out of place. First you paint the chrome grill black, then you put a big CHROME star in the middle. So, you get the point
