I saw a C350 sedan ('08-'09) turned C53 AMG. The guy was too cheap to buy new badging and just swapped the "3" and "5", dropped the "0". That, or he had a custom "one off" 5.3 liter hand built for him.

Must be a reflection, I did not notice any damage and I just snapped it quick with my blackberry...I stopped to look at the car because it was F'in nice, red interior caught my eye through the rear glass, etc...then I looked down...and then scratched my head...wtf

btw - I think SC63 on a supercharged car sounds badass, not posing...

I'll wager that the guy was in an accident and had the trunklid resprayed/replaced, and the guy at the body shop failed to take notice of the lettering he was installing.

Benz tends to combine badge lettering to reduce inventory. For example, if you order a "TURBO" badge from a B200 Turbo, they send you a "TURBODIESEL" badge and you just drop the "DIESEL". So for an "S350" badge you'd get an "SLK350", and persumably for "C63" they'd send you "CLK63" or "CLS63".

setting the badge aside, I think it's amazing that the damage on the spoiler would occur, given this car obviously has parktronic package onboard.

It is not that we care.. it is that we enjoy making fun of the odd things people do...

That's just weak... I have seen another S-class AMG poser here in Pitt but no C63 poser yet. However, I had seen a silver C63 (not poser) here some time ago.
