thanks for admitting you are a troll...

the reason why it is not ok to pose is because it drags down the name of the brand, guys in civics trying to convince me they would take me because they have beaten AMG's before...

you clearly don't have the reasoning power to understand this issue so just get out of the discussion.... enjoy getting laughed at by people in G37's etc because they just beat a c300 AMG...

Get off your a$$, and go drive your AMG!

all cudos to that guy making his visions come true.
that's a poor man's sportscar he made.
most people in Asia are poor, can't afford to own a car.
building his own car is strong!


btw, that Lambo look a like, would do great in a post apocalyptic movie like Mad Max 4 or something.

What about the ones that do a face lift?
Like my 07 s65 is not a 2010+ but I am putting all new parts on it.
So when some one sees my car may not believe its a 65 or v12.
I look at as o well most will find out the hard way if they try to race me lol.
I dont under stand the ones with a s550 and AMG badge and maybe wheels think they have a full out amg car.

I find it sad that this AMG poser section is the only active thread in our 209 AMG sub forum.

Pretty lame to me.

Fricken drives me nuts. These are the most popular in my area:
Sport package = AMG badge
Chrome wheels = AMG badge (mostly black guys in W220 S430s- not trying to be racist, but that's just what I notice)
Quad tip extension add on = AMG badge (regard above)
AMG aftermarket rims = AMG badge
If none of the above were applied then it's "Owns a Mercedes = AMG badge"

I'm an E550 driver but not an ///AMG poser. I saw a Nissan Pathfinder with Mercedes-Benz logos the other day in Denver, thank G-d he didn't put them on straight otherwise I would have never figured out that it wasn't a Mercedes.

I can't wait to see a civic or some ricer with an AMG badge and knock-off wheels. That'll be the day.

I remember seeing a Toyota sedan in China with the AMG badge. Made my whole family LOL when we saw it in traffic.

Don't intend to come off as a mean or aggressive person, but would it be frowned upon if I were to throw rocks at the next ///AMG poser badge I see? Maybe the owners better?

When you get a real AMG and become sensitive like everyone else.. yes! Until then, you are a subtle, relaxed and gentlemanly MB owner!

I'm gonna get it this time.. I know it!

Hahahaha good answer Ahmed. Good answer. It still does **** me off though, because even though I wish I owned an AMG it cheapens my favorite brand of performance car when I see people doing stupid sh*t like pretending to have the hand-built monster of their base $30,000 C300.

Or even top of the line $150,000 SL600s. Even on eBay I've seen quite a few Maybach 57 badged as Maybach 57s... Seriously WTF. Already have a Maybach, no one even knows what a 57s is... go figure.

Edit: I just happened to be browsing eBay and came accross this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Mayba...ht_46299wt_980 Seriously. Why fake an already top of the line car?!!?!?!?!?

Well true, still cheapens the AMG nameplate because the AMG equivalent to the SL600 (currently anyway) is the SL65 and there's still a 107,000 separating the two.
