I wonder what makes these people slap a badge on a car that doesn't belong there? It's not like anyone that knows what AMG stands for will not know a fake when they see one.

I work on an Air Force base and there is a guy with with a pre02 s430 or something and he rebadged s43 amg w/ v8 kompressor on the side... not to mention all the chrome trim you can buy on ebay. It just looks tacky, why do it, you know people are laughing at you...

Sadly, some girls do know AMG stands for something significant and I bet that stuff does fool them

For every one who laughs, there are 10 who think it's the real deal. We know poser vs real, but the rest of the world only wants to know if it's a "500". What makes it even worse is that so many think that "500" is the model !

'03 S55 (79K miles)
I'm thinking of rebadging mine as a C280

Maybe my insurance premiums will go down.
And I'll get better gas mileage.
And Porche 911's will leave me alone on the highway.
And the valet drivers will not rev my engine to 4500 RPM when they start it up....
