Backwards badging??

New member here and I'm just about to be an owner of a cls63s. Only thing is the badging on the trunk lid is backwards. I usually see the cls63 on the driver side and the s amg on the passenger side. But the car I'm looking to buy has the badging backwards. The dealer assures me the car has not been modified but I wanted to get a second opinion.

What do you guys think? Would Mercedes ship cars with different badges?

That must've been changed by the previous owner. Yes, it's backwards.

Perhaps the previous guy de-badged and the dealer put the badges on backwards???

What year is the car? In 2016, the AMG was moved to the driver's side on the CLS and other AMG models.

I thought it was for vehicles manufactured the 2nd half of the year had there badges reversed to show they were late models or something, i have a 2016 cls63 and i saw one of the same year with the badges reversed
