You guys have to check this out, it's pretty convincing, the only thing he didn't change is the breaks.

Those aren't E63 wheels. And, why would the OP get attacked for posting this? He's got a E63.

I think the car in the ad looks great. I wouldn't call having the AMG Package a poser kit. Probably best if the 63 badges did come off. Just like in an earlier thread about AMG posing, there will be a few posts soon though trying to justify the 63 and AMG badges. There is NONE.

I know a lot of people on here disagree with me, but people like this make me sick. This is beyond just doing something to his car, this line, in my opinion, really sums up the mentality of people like this:

"Want to drive a $95,000.00 E63 and spend HALF the money?"

He isn't driving an E63. It's like he's insinuating that people who actually buy E63s are morons when they should just buy E350s and make them look like E63s.

No offense to the original poster. I can definitely tell from a number of things besides the brakes.

Pathetic and a big fail on the so called AMG components.

E63
I think it looks great, if somebody wants to have the look of an AMG, it's not a big deal to me, it's no different than any other car putting on a lip or body kit. I do have a problem with him putting on the AMG and E63 badges. Oh well, what can you do?

And I posted this cus I thought it was funny and thought some of you guys would get a kick out of it as well.

His liscense plate made me laugh. He must not be a very good invest-i if he has to make a 350 into a posermobile.

+1. What an incredible waste of money on an E350. For the money and effort spent he almost could've been driving a REAL E63.

You have to give the guy some credit- the AMG badges are genuine Mercedes parts.

I agree with you.

There is an e350 here in Vegas with the full E55 badge package and the fancy bolt on ground clearance reducing quad tips. I have challenged the owner a couple of times in my Boxster S and he declines every time.

Wow! How often do you see an e55 driver cower down to a Boxster at a stoplight?

Pretty bad. I'd rather drive a e350 than a E350 with an identity crisis.

Is driving an E55 or E63 about what you think of the car and yourself or about what other people think about the car and you? Where does the real identity crisis exist?
