I agree that it is not right to lie about a car, and I don't condone "posing", but it's not like the guy is misrepresenting the actual equipment and engine. I've seen people go to great lengths to create fake cars. Adding an AMG badge and claiming it's 1 of 100 (which in that color combination, it probably is) isn't as bad as popping an AMG engine cover in, and putting "CLK55" on the trunk when it's a CLK500 or even a CLK320. I've even seen a W203 badged as a "CLK230". Lots of Jeep owners slap a 4x4 badge on their RWD vehicles.

Again, I'm not defending the misrepresentation of this car, but in the end, if someone buys it thinks they are getting an AMG, they are totally uninformed and wouldn't appreciate the real thing anyhow. An informed buyer would know it;s not an AMG, that it just has AMG-styled wheels and exhaust tips, and is an unusual color combination, and can appreciate a good CLK500.
