It's a C63...wait no its a...C180 AMG? I found this car interesting as there is no such thing as a C180 offered for sale in the United States. It looks like the guy did some kind of C63 rear end conversion to the car, and underneath the AMG badge on the right were Chinese characters (looked like either a dealer name or some other badging). Leads me to believe this car was imported to the US for some reason...

Still had the 30 day paper temporary plate on it. It's a 2008 based on the mirrors it had that were only made on the 2008 C classes. They changed them for 09 and later.

And I guess it is possible the owner put a C180 badge on his C63...but it truly wasn't a C63. I drove around and saw the front was just a regular C.

I can't stand it when people do that... I saw a MB CLK the other day, I know for a fact it was NOT a AMG CLK55... the guy went though the trouble of getting ALL the emblems, even the Kompressor emblems for the sides... but where he fuct up was he added V8 emblems... One of these days, I'm going to be in a bad mood and just tell these people something like: "dude, all that money you put into it, you should've just bought a REAL AMG"

At least he did everything.

The guy in the Bimmer kept the 528 badge on one side, had the ///M on the other, and replaced the stock roundel on the trunk with a ///M in a black circle. I really wish I got pics.

Yep, I hate when people add any badges of any kind that weren't there to begin with. The guy with the "C180" probably could've pulled off the AMG ass end if he just debadged them all.

Speaking of which, Range Rovers in Beverly Hills are like CR-V's everywhere else. In about 2 minutes sitting outside a pizza parlor, I counted at least 4-5 RRs

I believe its the owner to some salon/boutique thing on the left hand side of the photo. There was also a magazine on the seat of the buggatti with his picture on the cover, he'd come out to feed the meter. Pretty cool
