Maybe the "S" is for "supercharged".

There's subtle cheating and then there's "obfuscation" ... (sorry I didn't get the whole car, my camera seized at this point)

I'm not saying I condone it or that I'd do it myself but I'm not sure I'd call them out on a message board either. lol Besides, some of the other pics in this thread (e.g., the Accord with the BMW badging) are far worse.

What I don't understand is, if someone is going to badge their C2 incorrectly, why not go whole hog and badge it as a GT3 or a Turbo? You know maybe the owner couldn't afford the extra letters and they went with the "S" because it was cheaper. See, don't you feel bad for them now?

Wondering...what are your thoughts on this one?

Pretty sure that's an "S" edition.

Get a life...do you have any fake lable brand stuff in your possession, have you ever pretended to be someone your are not, or lie. All just the same....Chill man.
I don't condone it but starting a thread here is a joke.

Please, stop the posing. And your new improved badge is not even centered.

I just don't get why no one is commenting about the very obviously fake Mercedes hood ornament he's glued beneath his right taillight......

*sigh* Indeed, it's called humor. Pointing out that people will do things to their cars that make others laugh is funny. If you don't find it funny, you can simply not respond.

Wait, hold on, let me fix your statement.

There, done.

Next.
