Damn, looks like I missed a lot going on in this thread! lol
Kid drops an AMG engine in a CL500 and wants to badge it an AMG?
That's some funny stuff right there.
Besides the fact that its not a real AMG.......why would anyone in their right mind want to do that? Boredom? I mean, good for you you can swap an engine. People do that with Chevy and Fords all the time. But it seems silly on a Benz.
Just because you can doesn't mean you should.
If you want an AMG so bad then just go out and buy one. There are plenty to be had at decent prices.

What was wrong with the original engine in the CL500 anyways?

I really enjoy arguing with you guys, I really do. But I honestly think its about time I threw in the towel. I've proved everybody wrong that I set out to do so, and used logical evidence to back my claims up. The last few pages I've not only made my points, but reiterated them multiple times as it seems it takes the average amg owner 3 or 4 tellings before they can admit they were wrong and get something through their head. I'll check back in a few weeks to make sure you guys don't miss me too much!!

Props to you for swapping the engine out but surely your not trying to tell us the only difference between a non-amg and an amg is the engine.

1. Did you swap out the stock brakes for a set of AMG's?
2. Did you swap out the coil overs for a set of AMG's?
3. Did you swap out the front and rear sway bars?

There are other things but as you can see, it is not just changing out an engine.

A complete waste of time anyway. Trust me, the last few pages are about arrogance and immaturity only, nothing else. Well, braggadocio too, big time braggadocio.

So I made the mistake of reading back.
Wow this guy is an idiot.

03' CL55 AMG
There is this kid i've seen a few time driving around in a W220 S430 which he has rebadged as an S55 AMG, he has those cheap clip-on quad exhaust tips, like 17x6" wheels and more chrome than a hip-hop auto show

Not only is he posing with his fake AMG but he also has a license plate that says "BHNINJA" but he doesn't live in Beverly Hills, i've seen his car parked in a driveway near Little Ethiopia

I'll try to get a picture next time i see 'it'

Eh...the little things in life.
I agree on the part of not needing to be wreckless and prove your car is better, talking about being a poser with any car. I've raced a few times when not in traffic and mainly with other Mercedes but just for fun. When these fellow young people try to prove their cars to me I just think to myself that there isn't much of a point, I'm in a Benz (AMG or Not) and I shouldn't need to risk everything to prove my car's worth. It's a Mercedes. One time I had a dude in a new base and stock Toyota Matrix hatchback try to race me in rush hour traffic. When I didn't race him and pulled calmly up to the next light he actually rolled down his window to tell me how slow my car was... ??? However I hate people that do the ricer flyby after they try keeping up, it's one of the major no-no's of proper street competition etiquette, and a flyby is a sort of disrespectful. Not to say I haven't done flybys before but it's not something I'm proud of xD

What a load of crap AMGAffalterbach, when you get old enough you should run for congress. Wishy washy statements " I've raced a few times when not in traffic and mainly with other Mercedes but just for fun." That whole blurb just reeks of maturity, yah right!
But Thanks for the download of your vast knowledge. You are in the wrong forum, unless you are posing? CLK55AMG CLK63AMG (W208) (209) Awaiting torrent of blah blah blah! Travis and yourself should get together and drop a 63 motor in your E550 and you would have a E63??

Do you have to own an AMG to post in here? For the longest time, I thought I was contributing to our rich forum by posting in here, sharing a few laughs, and calling out the occasional poser, even if I don't own an AMG. But according to you, I'm not supposed to be in here.

I'd put critter in the minority on that viewpoint, but then again, I am in the wrong forum too. I guess I have to go back to the boring SL threads. Their are some newer SL guys doing some pretty cool stuff though.

you're the type of guy who tells girls he's 8 inches long, only to get in bed and they find out you're really a 6. i'm the type of guy who can walk the walk just as well as he talks. just because you're insecure about your shortcomings doesn't make you an authority of anything lmao

explain to me how a modern combustion engine works and i will put my foot in my mouth and never disrespect you again. that my friend is a promise
not sure why you feel the need to disrespect me in the first place?

care to explain yourself ?

Wasn't aware of the rule that stated you can only post in the forum that reflects which cars you own.

That actually looks really nice, remove the AMG and V8 VBi-turbo badges and it's a pretty clean ride
