MY FIRST POSER SIGHTING!!

I was coming back from La Jolla on the 5 south this past Saturday when in my rearview mirror I spot this black Benz going in and out of lanes. I noticed that the car was an E-class but not an AMG model.

Once the car went flying by me I notice all the E63 badges along with the quad pipe exhaust. The guy driving looked very confident in himself and his "so called" E63.

I would have chased after him and messed with him a bit but I had my wife's Navigator so I lost my chance. I hope I see him again in my car!!!

That car looked so WEAK!!

Mercedes-benz of N.A. should give him a fine for illegally impersonating an E63!! No Longer allowed to own MB cars until he can afford what he wants!!

Just curious, but how could you tell it was not an AMG if it had the quad exhaust (the most obvious sign), and he was flying by you?

Talking

I have to be honest, I had my first poser sighting about a month ago in the LA area and took a couple of pics with my phone as my colleague was driving. Anyway, I just haven't posted it yet, but who knew?...Brabus upgrades the C class?

fair question... When I say fly by me, that means at a pace that is outperforming a Navigator with my 1 year old son riding along.

The front bumper was a stock E class bumper. I could tell that when I first saw the car.

The biggest clue was when it drove by me and I did not see the brakes. If you ever see our cars when the wheels are spinning the brakes are VERY easy to see. Maybe he decided to take the BREMBO's off and put the stock brakes back on.

Sounds like our Uberfaker poser dude...

Too bad you didnt get a pic of the driver. I am driving around now with my camera so i can try to get a picture of the posers face as I go by....

Wish people didnt make us 63's so cheap by putting badges on a 350 or even a 500/550

I wish I could have snapped a pic but he was moving too fast. If I ever see the car parked somewhere I will be sure to get detailed pics.

That was Uber-douchebag for sure! He's the only one who was retarded enough to put an AMG exhaust on his regular E-class.

Plus, his car is black, and the driving style (weaving in and out, overconfident, etc.) fits his personality to a T.

It's missing the reindeer and the mojitos. He'll never recognize it that way.
