I wonder if M-B knew how much the C-Class lowers the IQ level and class of the brand as a whole, would they stop making it?
Who needs ClubCivic.com when you have the local C-Class Forums?

Who says I've rebadged my car? Lol. There are 6 "AMG" logos on the car total, and they came with the car from the factory. Again, don't complain to me, complain to M-B.

You should write a letter to M-B then, 'cause they're putting AMG Sport Packages on pretty much every C-Class, and unlike the Pre-'09 W211 E-Classes when the "AMG Sport" Package was a high-cost and relatively "rare" option, the new E's as well are running about with AMG "Sport" body cladding, as it's a much, much cheaper option now.
You my friend, need to read up on M-B Options. "AMG Sport Package" is something they're whoring out more and more these days, as the brand gets more and more desperate for Sales. See above ^^

But kudos for not sticking one on the trunk, that's a douche move IMO. People around here would probably cheer up if you changed the avatar to "E350 AMG Package"

Yeah, no trunk badge for me, when I see that I can't see past it, i.e regardless of how nice the car is, it ruins the whole thing.
I just put the AMG Sport thing on there when I bought as I remember the car being advertised as that, or it was on the Options sheet worded in that way or something.... I gotta go check. Before M-B REALLY started whoring out the AMG Packages, they were like a $5K Option on the W211, and I guess they had the E-Class Sport (which is actually an "Appearance Package" in technical terms), and then the "AMG Sport" which was the higher Option, if I remember correctly.

C63, LR3
I cannot believe what just happened tonight, and makes me sick to my stomach on how screwed up our law system is (or more correctly how some cops think they can use their power to **** other people over because they just feel like it).
Ive had my c63 for a few weeks and was going down Route 9 in poughkeepsee, NY (which is a 3 lane road with lots of lights). I come up to a light an notice an unmarked cruiser behind me, I do a legal U turn and dont have my blinker on (i never put my blinker on in those situations because those lanes are specifically marked for left hand or U turns).
So the cop pull me over, and I honestly did not know why...he comes up to me and says he pulled me over for not turning on my turn signal and asks me for my paper work...im very nice to him and explain that i just got the car and only have my temp registration and didnt have a chance to put the insurance card in my car. Hes like ok all pissed off, goes to the front of my car sees no plate and asks why...i explain again to him i just got the car and the dealer never put the plate on.
He walks back to his cruiser and about 20 minutes later pops out with 5 tickets in his hand...he gives me 3 separate tickets for no turn signal (apparently he had been fallowing me for a while) a ticket for not plate and a ticket for no insurance. I look at him surprised, but didnt want to start **** and took the tickets and wished him a good night (which pissed him off even more it seems)
5 damn tickets for being pulled over for a turn signal...thats 500-700 dollars worth of fines. I really think he saw my car, got jealous and decided to slap me with everything possible since I make an honest living and can afford it and hes stuck in a town cop car pulling people over. Stuff like that is criminal.
And here I though that when i got my C63 it would be a sleeper car compared to my STi I have been driving and never get pulled over...and I get ****ed with this car 5 times as much as any other time I have been pulled over with m STi...guess thats my luck
Thank god the insurance and plate should easily be dropped since I have insurance and I can stick the plate on there, and if the judge dosent have a stick up his a-hole like this cop did will reduce the 3 turn signal tickets into one.

Maybe trading in the E-class for a Buick Lucernce would be an appropriate move.
