I hate imposter cars. On the W222 S Class facebook page I am on people post fake Maybachs all the time, and when they get called on it they EXPLODE. When you have an incredible car like an S Class already, why pretend its something its not?
that's how i've always felt about people up-badging their C300 with AMG logos, like aren't you just reminding yourself of what you don't have every time you drive the car? also the only people who actually know what AMG is are the same people who will be able to tell it's a fake lol, nobody else would even notice
now something like this i can appreciate, i did such a double-take when i walked past haha
what do you mean it's not even rwd? it is an LS460, right?
It's an AWD, so it's missing about 30hp and is heavier plus no rear LSD among other things....AWD doesn't make sense on the 460 IMO since it removes power and handling and screws up the weight bias.
Having had both a RWD and an AWD LS460, I preferred the RWD car, but I would have bought an AWD car again if thats what had been available and fit my needs.

I hear this too, I would NEVER put an AMG badge on my Mercedes.
Putting Maybach badges on an already amazing car is realllly stupid.
That is HILARIOUS because yesterday I was behind a brand new C300 that had a personalized plate “MCH2FUN”. They’re prerogative of course but there’s nothing fun about a 2.0t. If it were the 6 cylinder I would have taken it much more seriously.
have you driven a new c300? especially the coupe? great car.
Dang, I hate to see that.
If they want to generate revenue, catch people speeding and EARN the money.
Camera tickets are a money making scam....

That's my story and I'm sticking to it. lol

I like all the Mercede products.
Yeah, maybe like ya'll say, it must be the three pointed star. haha

Ok, ya'll don't laugh at me but I put RX350 badges on my RX330 and the late Gen 2 grill.
Took a few years off the car.

Pop the hood and get a surprise. haha

I don't think tiny little toy cars like this will be a big seller here in the US until city life gets a little more squashed and tight, like metro areas in other countries.

Ha! I so want to get my hands on one of those but they are stupid rare, it was the strangest accessory a company has every offered IMO. Literally on the options list for one of the real cars
Sorry to hear that. Was the ticket in Canada? Most places in the U.S. set the cameras for around 10-11 MPH over. Still, $82 is not that bad (I'll assume Canadian dollars), although in Virginia it is only $50 American dollars.
