Hardest Trying Poser...

Today while driving, here's what I saw:



For those who can't tell what it says, on the left, it's badged "SL65" with an "AMG" sticker above it. On the RIGHT () side it says "AMG" with a V12 badge above. The license plate is "ZAGS 65" with an AMG license plate frame and there were plenty of AMG badges on the side as well.

This guy started scooting forward when he saw me trying to take a picture.

He even kept taking off quickly as well. I was happy to be in the ML to show him what a real AMG is like.

I've seen just as bad. I saw a brown/tan "E63" W211 coming to work the other day , and thought I never knew they made this color???Wasnt long before I noticed it was a 350 NON sport.
Had E63, AMG and 6.3 badges, AMG license frame with his single tip exhaust LOL. Probably bought it all on ebay LOL. I wanted to run him off the road in my accord. Thought he was so cool chatting on his phone too.

LOL, at least they actually make a 211 E63. AFAIK, there's no such thing as a 129(?) SL65.

Didn't you mean to say "on the other left side" in the second reference.

Maybe things are different in a more car savvy place like So Cal, but out here only a small percentage of people would know or care what AMG or SL65 signify and the people who know would immediately know he's a poser. So why does the poser do it? We think he's a dumb *** poser and the rest of the motoring public couldn't care less about the badges he has been buying from EBay.
