Default Wanna-Be New Cobra...

So, I was driving home from my friend's house in Jasper this weekend, which is 80 miles away from me on I-10. When I saw this "Cobra" I was coming up to... It had SVT and Cobra badges... I thought to myself, the new Cobra isn't out yet. This thing has only one pipe, no aero kit.. nothing.. lol it's funny what people will do to make them look cool. Don't they know, that any person with mild knowledge of cars, will know the truth... So what's the point?

I saw a C Class with S600 badge on the back, talk about a wannabe. However, I thought Ford came out with a SVT version of the new Mustang, which IMHO is a beautiful car. If I were rich like lugnut I would buy the GT in a heartbeat.

The GT is the Cobra's little brother, no? I wouldn't buy anything less than a Cobra. An SVT Cobra even better.

A C-class with an S-600 badge? How sad. The guy probably has a Civic in his garage.

I haven't seen anyone personally pretend to be an SRT-4... I haven't seen any fake badges...

The bad thing about this is, is that, it is a V6 Stang... It's not even a GT...

I've seen plenty of fake srt-4s. And man, come on, at least have the v-8 Mustang if ya gonna attempt to fake it. Then the C-class with an S600 badge? Idiotic.

A lot of young guys do it. It doesn't matter what kind of car, but it's usually something very affordable. It's like bragging about the over-sized Johnson that exists only in your imagination. Or, how many times you had sex last weekend when you were still a virgin.

Bah, stuff like that gives young people a bad name. What's the point of lying. Ya still a virgin, so what, that probably means you don't have an STD. And the truth will always come back so no point in lying. If you want a 560 GO get the 560 and not a 300 with a 560 badge. If ya can't get a S600 and had to settle for a C-class, so what? Most people can't afford the S600. Be proud of ya C-class and welcome to the Mercedes club and one day you might just get that S600. Geesh. I think I was born in the wrong generation. These people my age...nevermind that's a whole new monster.

I saw a GT500 the other day, and it looks sweet. Even though I don't like Fords, but I have to admit that the GT500 is one good looking ride. Some old fart was driving it in the slow lane. What a waste [:@]

A new one or a classic late-60s?
