Notice the stock gated shifter, yet the claim of a Renntech 6-speed manual. Also notice the 600 wheels in the pics of the partition in the back, but 500 wheels in the first pics.

I don't even know where to begin.

That is not a S600. Notice the lack of S600 rims, badging, and the S600 exhaust.

The interior pictures show different colored interior wood trim. Burl walnut?? Chestnut trim??? make up your mind!

Entrance panels are not Brabus.

You cannot fit Brabus brakes on stock 16 or 17" wheels

No Brabus exhaust
Hell, even his interior leather is 2 different colors.

That's why, boys and girls, being a cynic on the internet is a good thing. Using stock photos and other random pictures to create a fake existence. Funny.

That is definetly not an S600, 2nd car does not have the V12 badge on the side, and nobody in their right mind would pay extra for those wheels. Also, the two tail pipes are not sticking out from the back. Also, the color of the car is VERY questionable, in the picture of the brabus it is black, in the picture of the stock "S600" it is more of a blue, and no, that is not glare. He certainly does not have an S600.

Off we go .

Well I just left two nice little comments in the guestbook about his fradulent car .

This person is lying about his car. First of all, the picture of the stock S600 is infact not even an S600. A real S600 has a large V12 badge on the side, aswell as two enormous tailpipes coming out the back. How do I know this? Because I own a REAL S600. Also, the pictures of the engine were taken directly from the Brabus website, aswell as the picture of the Brabus S-Class. Also, the wheels on the S600, are infact the stock wheels of an S430/500. Please do not let this LIAR mislead you, he does NOT own a real S600, or even a Brabus S600 for that matter. The picture of the Brabus S600 is Obsidian Black, however, all the other pictures show the car as being Blue, and it is extremely clear. The interior pictures were stolen from the MBSPY website. The person who claims to own this car is a fraud and I have just proven it.

One more thing, the picture of the stock S600 has a custom extended cab, which is completely irreversable, but this is not in the picture of the Brabus. This is a BLATANT LIE on the part of the person who posted this here. He may fool people who know nothing about Mercedes-Benz, but he sure did not fool a real owner of an S600.
It's one thing to debadge a car and put a different number on the back or something, but what he did is just wrong.

who cares

Who cares if the website weenie owns a REAL S600 or not, or you, or anyone else for that matter? It doesn't really amount to a hill of beans, does it? Aren't there more important things to do? Surely the "dignity" of a mere machine does not merit such a spirited defense.

Trolls like that website weenie derive great pleasure from the indignation they always seem to arouse in earnest people, so you've likely just fed his ego.

Time to move on, I'd say...

I own a 2001 S600. This can't be one. ALL S600's come with a full leather interior. The pics show a plastic dash and look at close-up of center console.....it is wrapped in plastic rather than leather.

His ceilings are cloth, on a real S600 they are suede.

He removed the guest book because I proved that he is a fraud. Victory is mine!

This is what he put up:

Why I have taken down the guest book is because, I have been getting harrassed by this so called ******* Accord32 that says he has the real deal ya right with that name. I want proof *** if you read this I want to see yours common what are you made of *****. OH and If anybody has any comments please e-mail them to me milone125@hotmail.com I took the guest book down because it was being abused. One thing is for sure I got proof and I don't like to be called a liar. Thank You to the people that believe me. I knew by putting my car up here I would have negative feedback.
For the record, I was not "abusing" him, I was simply pointing out facts to prove that he is a fraud. However, he on the otherhand used atleast 5 profanities in every sentence that he wrote towards me.

I also find it just baffling that he removed the picture of the Black Brabus, I guess he is to ignorant to have noticed the picture of his trunk shows the car as being WHITE!

This guy is a true loser.
