Yeah that’s shameful. I don’t even have to click on the pic to see the tacked on badge is crooked, lol. On the slowest BMW or one of them.
That's too bad. Take away the fake M badge and spoiler and you have a nice looking conservative apparently well-maintained compact sport sedan that's around 10 years old.
Yeah shopping around, the brake pads that everybody on MB World is talking about are less than $100 for all 4, so paying the dealer $1,200 just for pads seems pretty silly lol
Yeah that's insane, a pad change is so easy I'm 1000% sure you could do it if you wanted to as well.

I agree, that car would look great minus the NOPI poser bs. That era of 3 series was really good looking IMO.
Edit: I forgot those 320s had just a single exhaust, that just makes it even worse.
Speaking of S-Class I just saw one parked debadged, brand new.
Someone wanted the V8 and couldn’t get it or afford it or whatever.
It’s been YEARS since I’ve seen an S debadged!
Its actually pretty common on the forums, even for S580s. Mercedes emblems are really annoying, they snag towels and pull off.

I asked my son if we could tackle it and he said YEAH! So, maybe we will lol. About his age my Dad and I changed the spark plugs in our Ford Aerostar and that was such a debacle it remains one of my favorite stories. When we sold our house there was still an impression in the Asphalt from the jack lol
One other thing about the GLC loaner, the MBUX implementation of CarPlay is just terrible. Its getting a refresh in the cars that still have the landscape screens this year (GLE and GLS, CLS, GLA and GLB) and I hope they fix this. Really thinking I may get a GLS450 to replace the Pacifica and this would be a deal breaker for us:

May be may be not. How can you be sure it's not a V8? Some do this just because they want a clean b*tt or trick people to think their car is slow. I've seen them. At some point in the past, I always de-badged my Lexus (when there was no bigger engine model) until my wife told me not to. "Your car, without the badge, looks like a salvaged car." Lol.
