I got alongside of him and did a slow roll with my windows down in 2nd gear (my car makes quite a racket) and then noticed "V12 BI-Turbo" badges on the side and just about spit soda all over the dash. He saw me and immediately slows down to get away from me. I downshift into first gear and my exhaust starts crackling and burbling (decatted, long tubes and 6.3 mufflers). I am slowing down at the same rate as him, just playing around. No traffic as it's late. I decide to ask him about his car and I just bought my AMG and wasn't aware they made a V12. The second he begins to talk about all the modifications I launch my car into outer space and gave him and earful of a real AMG.

lolz...I am still giggling
LMFAO!!! Bro... you're an @sshole!
Now you got him thinking of cutting off his mufflers just to copy your car's sound.

LOL. He opened his sunroof and stuck his hand out as high as he could to snap the picture.

I'm confused. It seems as if he used to own a CLA45, but then bought the Civic and moved the plate. How is that an upgrade?

Also, dat Magnum SRT8.

...and that's a poser why? There are no AMG badges. So he's not allowed to have 4 tips, is there a patent on 4 tips

No AMG badges, no posing. Otherwise modding of any kind would be posing? Think not...

Maybe posing about having exhaust connected to the 4 tips?

Other than the E55, prefacelift w211 dont have the exhaust tips cut out on the rear bar.(at least the non sport package that came out here) The L/R tips are not visible. So some extended exhaust tips are available on ebay. No badge, no posing.

NICE! the next time I see this guy (photo below) I am going to suggest he get a set. He will still have "caliper envy", but one issue at a time I guess.

Still a different bumper though for the real SL55s.

Also, there's nothing wrong with fake tips even on a real AMG, you can just delete the resonators and mufflers and not even weld a pipe to the back, then put fake tips and have one LOUD CAR!!

Yeah, the SL I posted above is an SL500 that does not even have the AMG sport package. I saw the owner. He looks to be in his late sixties. I doubt he was the one who made the changes.

W212 E350 with E63 AMG badges AND 6.3 AMG badges on the fenders (which by the way, were placed way too high).

I didn't even notice the badges on the trunk until I realized he kept braking late cause he was texting.







As I slowly creep up the passenger side with my daily driver beater, Mr. Cool Guy looked at me (in a normal way), I mess with him and give him a thumbs-up and point at his car (with a blank facial expression).

He then revs his stock sounding engine with a look on his face that kind of says "yup... that's right bro. Someday you'll be able to afford an AMG like me."

I CRINGE on his behalf. That picture is also PERFECT, poor model, to me he'll forever be that E350 poser. If it was an E550 with an exhaust at least it would have sounded mean but an E350

I saw Mr. V12 E350 again. This time with the lady...we did another 2nd gear slow roll by him. She had both thumbs down laughing at him while I did another rolling launch.

I'm pretty sure that dude has had enough of me...but I shall continue the beatings!

LMAO! You're comedy bro.
You're just egging him on to upgrade his badges to an "E65 AMG" or something.
