Is this a poser, and is this subforum in the wrong area??

Saw this coupe in my neighborhood and thought it odd for an AMG to be GLE450 and not GLE43; poser?? Also, went looking for this forum in the AMG section; why is it here with the non-AMG GLEs??

Granted, I live in a very conservative section of central Florida....but, my E63 identifies as a Ferrari TestiRoaster. Who am I to judge?

In the US, 2016 models were label GLE450’s then starting in 2017 they rebadged them as GLE43’s. MB/AMG was trying to rebrand some AMG lines with a “sport line” that they quickly abandoned after one model year and just went back to the two digit numbering. Same vehicle.
