It's possible to have the AMG package on a Benz without getting the full tuning kit. Mercedes does offer the package so someone doesn't have to spend the cheese for a C63. I believe it's just wheels and suspension. I'm not a Benz fan but this is a nice option. Even BMW does this to some degree. ///M sports are offered throughout the lineup. So, just maybe this person wasn't a posser.............Phil

Are you sure that is an option for hte C-Class? I couldn't find it anywhere. I see you can chose the AMG wheels, but I don't see where the AMG suspension is an option. I don't think that MB would throw an AMG badge on a regular C-Class even if this option was available and equipped. This sounds like the guy bought the badge and stuck it on himself. BMW wouldn't put an ///M on the back of a 535i or an X3 with the M-sport package. I know it is plastered all around the interior, but not on the deck lid.

I hate when people add an ///M or AMG badge to regular cars. Trust me, BMW owners do this as well. There are plenty of people here who have an M on the back of their X5. Drives me crazy. I have even seen a 740i with an ///M on the back.

I have M3 wheels on my e36 325i, but I would never put an ///M on the trunk. Way too fake.
