Not sure why anyone would re-badge their car to something it's not.

Rebadging is okay under certain situations, like putting Toyota Aristo badges on a LExus GS400/430 and such. I rebadged my Acura to Honda, and even have the Honda Airbag. This though is kind of lame when you try to rebadge up.

Frankly, I think that silly bolt-on wing is more awkward-looking than the Lexus badge.

The "N" stands for a new or "novice" driver. We have graduated licensing here in some provinces of Canada.

I saw a Geo 3dr with Mercedes badges all over it last week. Can't help but laugh.

the infamous "nissan" g35, or "infiniti" skyline is another one i see daily (not to mention all the nissan altima's with infinit badging.
i understand the nissan skyline and the infiniti g35 is somewhat the same car but IMO its either a nissan skyline, or a infiniti g35.

These things happen in life and sometime there is no explanation, whether logical or illogical.

That giant wing stands out more than the emblem.

It's better than a honda with MB, g500, sc55, Lexus, Volvo, s500, etc on one car. Not kidding. Lived in LA for a long time and you'll notice cars like this once in a while especially in run down neighborhoods.
