this guy fakes videos all the time you can tell because they blur the faces of the bad people because they are actors. There is no reason to blur them out in public plus their reactions are always over the top. The only message I get is he's trying to get rich of tricking people. He is not doing anything productive and he is usually being a *** to people them saying oh it's ok because it's a video. Also I think that guy would know what kind of car he has. Also I can tell you that no one in their right mind leaving a vehicle parked out in public would start talking crap to a homless guy. I remember once I was in the same situation in downtown LA parking my car and a homeless guy told me that he could watch my car for me since this is a bad city. I took it almost as a threat... Paid the guy 5 bucks to not screw with my car. Of course he was gone when I came back and didn't watch it lol.

I didn't even read that lol so I read the thread again. I could have kept going, but I was rambling too much. I have worked for mb for over 10 years and I have only seen 1 guy with a black card and a W211 and it was a E55 (in production still) and it was his car he used while he was traveling. I know this because he came in said this it was his car he uses when he's in cali and he lost his key. He ordered two keyless go keys which were around $800 and he never picked them up! Every other black card user I have met is S600+ and they are never that arrogant. This video is new and that is a 2009 E350 which is a under 20k car today. Once that guy came at him crazy that skinny *** kid would have turned right around and left or got in his car and left, but he tries to act like he is willing to fight him?? lol

Don't make us out to be dicks, dicks.
Don't forget about the $7500 initiation fee....

Don't disagree with you about the general point of the video, but if you are faking the data that you are using to prove your point, is your argument valid? Yes, I know quite a few material people, but none of them say things like "I can buy you." Perhaps I am a little sheltered.

Right... If fake representation is considered valid, then I have an adviser you should speak with...









The video's creator would garner far more credit, if the video were genuine.

Welcome to LA! That dude in the W211 E-Class is a total *****! Even if you were driving an S600, you shouldn't treat people like that.

It sounds pretentious enough if I say "I drive a Mercedes", now I just tell people I drive a station wagon and let them guess.

This video is weird


The video is weird. Lots of douchebags including the guy doing the video. It looks like LA too so not exactly a cross section of "normal" America. Lol
