New, old Mercedes and REAL AMG's.
Found these two last weekend. There are TONS of these in the Miami/Ft. Lauderdale area:
The slapped AMG badge, along with the "AMG" tag frame reasures you this is a REAL AMG.
And this one. Since the AMG badge has just been slapped there (along with an "AMG" tag frame), chances are the "Renntech" one is there to impress people who do not know what AMG and RENNtech are in the first place.

Rather than looking for my camera phone, I would've grab him by the neck and (Carefully to avoid any scratching to the trunk) drag him out of there.
What did he say?!

Just wondering, the guy sitting on the trunk does he have visitation in his hospital room yet. In Canada we use 911 to call for the ambulance, once on the line they ask what is wrong, you could have replied he fell of the trunk onto the pavement with great speed. 
Please tell me that is not you on the trunk, it will make me cringe

Yes, for sure!
Actually looks like a nice gently used Benz, bit pricey for the mileage.
But if it has full documentation from Benz then, Good to Go
16000 plus tax top out at 16500
What do you think?
Insurance might be tall when they hear the AMG part

V12 benz...I'm sure its been gently used. I would feel safer if it was an amg. There's a local guy selling an 05 or 06 cls55 amg that looks immaculate and has the same miles for $18,000 that I would definitely check out if I was in the market for another car.

I only listened to that first song, the intro had my attention but then it went down hill for me. I play guitar...and very well at that, these kids aren't talentless, that's for sure.

Yeah its me on the trunk. Sorry fellas. That S550 is now a full on work car (recycling plant and refinery). Its extra dirty on the inside and out. I blame myself since I got too busy with other stuff and had no time to clean. I maintain all cars in the garage, including my own s65 which I baby. Theres already marks and swirls from the years of disrespect from mall goers and haters on the car itself. That CL55 though

Well the guy is me and camera by my gf. We had lunch and saw this so I decided to park my non-amg next to his non-amg lol. Exhaust is another story. I'm here mainly cause of the CL55 on that body style. The AMG emblem I can care less and forgive, I know dealers do that to the cars. But he saved himself by not slapping a V8 KOMP/6.3AMG on the side!

W211 (E320)
Hey, non-amg owner here. I've been waiting for what seems like forever to get a flat hood badge for my e320. Having just got back from a trip, I am ready to order one. I think I am wanting the black/white affalterbach emblem (pictured below). I did post a question a while back on the non-amg forum but want confirmation from amg owners.
Would this emblem be acceptable in, your opinion, on my car. I do not want to try to pass my car off as amg or be considered a poser? I really just like the design and rareness of that badge. If there are any objections I will understand and likely get a default white star.
Also I know this is a C class discussion but felt the topic fit in perfectly for my question. Also I have no intention to put any amg badges elsewhere on the car, as like I said I do not want it to make my car look amg.
