Fake SL 65 AMG

I was getting my c36 serviced at my Benz shop. When I saw this red SL 65 getting a oil change. The guy pops the hood and its a V8! I know it has a V12. But the car had all the badges-V12 biturbo sides, SL65 AMG emblem rear. Also noticed the puny exhaust pipes maybe 2inches. Well I knew this fake AMG didnt have 604hp.

Small wallet and small 9eni$ syndrome.

As opposed to those of us with larger wallets...

yeah I one of them was in your own garage LOL. J/K
I see that **** all the time. It's so bad that people actually think MB gives you the badge when you buy the kit.

I never understood that . How come people can't accept what they have. Don't they know only car guys know what a 65 is, and of course those same car guys know what a 65 isn't. People have been sticking AMG badges on there cars for years. I remember there was a time in the inner city neighborhoods when people were stealing mercedes emblems and sticking them on Toyotas. How stupid is that
