Is there a S7??

Wednesday night I was at the dealer, and on my way out I saw this Silver S class car with Lowenhardt wheels, and an african american guy at the wheels, it called my attention the ground efects and specially the badge on the left side of the rear end (I couldn't notice if there was one on the right), S7

Is there such a car, or is it a fake?, the 7 matched size and look of Benz lettering.

Did he have a V14 badge on it too? Hehehehe Maybe it was that rapper with the platinum teeth. In his rap, he says he has a "700 Benz with a V14" Bling Bling, 30" Lorinsers with yokohama tires, Bling Bling

Why does it sound racist? In the song Bling Bling, rapper B.G. sings about a "Mercedes-Benz 700 V14". That sounds dumb for anyone to sing about, white or black. A 14-cylinder engine would be very inherently unbalanced.

There is an old W140 S73 in Europe, AMG modified V12 engine bored out to 7.3L, I think Brabus is doing similar things. Not sure if that's a real one though since it's a S7.

Where did that come from? I was simply quoting some lyrics from a rap song. Didn't mean to offend anyone. Nothing in the lyrics was racist. In fact, I not even "white".

Actually since everyone says I'm French everytime I post something, I will clarify this to get some more respect:
I am GERMAN: Eg. the dudes who make these wonderful automobiles.
A friend of mine has 270 CDI c class so that 7 rang a bell with me.

I know, I was just playing along.

Yeah it did, but it's all better now. Cost about 2 grand to patch up the sides and get out the scratches and dents from the sideswipe.

He said it was a special built machine. He knew y'all wouldn't believe it, he said he can't wait to see the haters face when y'all see it
