|  230 AMG . . . what?!?! OH MAN!!! I couldn't get my phone/camera out of my pocket quick enough!! What a moron! This guy pulls away collar up, hair windblown back, shades on and it plainly says SLK230 on the left with the "AMG" logo on the right...AMG ground effects, wheels and everything! This will prove to be a good, laughable section. They're out there folks!! Let's expose 'em!! |

To me, if someone puts the AMG logo on the trunk that implies it's AMG under the hood, no? I supposed he could have spent a ton of money to make his 230 an AMG. However, it sounded just like my non-AMG 230.  . . .hmmmmm If it looks like an eagle but sounds like a duck . . . | |

  | when i do see people doing this (with any type of car), i usually tell them to just DEBADGE it instead of incorrectly badging it. This way just trying to be deceptive and clean, is better then just flat out lying. Still everyone is proud of their car, so dont be to harsh on them! |

| When I was in northern Europe a while back, I saw many Mercedes cars lacking the engine designation numbers. I finally asked a local in Sweden if these cars were sold that way in Europe. He laughed and said no -- but that it was considered "stylish" by some in Europe to "hide" their engine size in this manner. On cars with a two or three letter designation (like SLK, SL, CLK), this looked nice and clean. But on cars with a single-letter designation (S, E, C) looked a little bare.
