I wonder where that guy got his "3" so maybe I can get one too to replace my "3". I'm sure other 2IS drivers on the road would think I'm a poser while pointing and laughing at me when they drive past. Until they see my brakes.... Huh?!?!

Well some people in here also went the way of changing their IS250 front brakes to 350 brakes.

Press my car registration against my driver side window and hope they have 20/20 eyesight?

But on a serious note, some people are just into the poser way of life because they know 90% of the people who sees it assumes it's real. The rest 10% are on the car forums making fun of the guy....

I think I saw the same Kid driving on the LIE. Does he have Chrome wheels too? In either case I saw another poser here in NY that did a badge swap .

In Flushing. It had original 17" wheels w/ 250's brakes so I was sure it was a 250.

Here's a picture of a C230 with C32 AMG badges I took when I was servicing my Benz at Helms Brothers Mercedes in January of 2005. Reason why I post this up? Because I saw him again few weeks ago on LIE, STILL with those badges after 3 years.
