The other night I was going towards Westwood on Sunset Blvd. and I saw some dude in a white SL500 badged SL55 with the AMG and V8 Kompressor badges and everything. He came up fast behind me and I was uninterested until I saw the fake badging. I followed him for a while as he cruised with the top down and his chick in the passenger seat. He kept trying to speed off but I just paced him staring out of my window laughing. Eventually we came up to a short light and I had just enough time to pump my fist out the window and yell "V8 Kompressor! Woo hoooo!!" and laugh before I sped off. The chick looked at him with a wierd expression and he turned to her and said something but I have no idea what. Probably something to the extent of, "This is the SPECIAL edition, he has no idea what he's talking about."
Kind of a jackass thing to do on my part but come on, you're only lying to yourself when you do something that stupid...

That's funny. Funny thing is when I picked up my C230 sport from the dealer, they had suggested for me to buy the AMG badges and stick it onto my car... they had told me a lot of their customers do that to look like the C32's.... What kind of sales rep does that??!?!!? Funny... hahaha

I saw another good one last night.
I was in my E420 and rolled up behind a C230 or a C320 ... I couldn't really tell but he had the C55 and AMG badging on the trunk and they were placed on correctly. It was a dark blue W203 which looked lowered and had wheels. So I'm thinking ... let's try to run this guy then... LOL So I get behind him the light turns green and I jump from behind him but nothing ... He actually drives grandma status for like over a mile. UNDER the speed limit. I'm like lame .... then me makes a right at a light ... totally whack I was expecting some more fun. LOL

lol why do ppl have to resort to such a thing?, its like wearing a fake rolex and saying you paid 10k for it. its one thing if it actually looks like the real car lol, but any enthusiast knows the difference between a c230/32/55. if i ever did that and got called out on it, id feel like a straight idiot lol. so who ever does this, be prepared to feel like a straight idiot some day. especially if your car ends up on this thread

I'd love to be at the service department when one of these *** clowns brings in their car. "Sir is this a C55 with the V-8?" "Uh...no it's a C230 super sport 4 cylinder"
