Probably not. if someone had an actual brabus E300, would they actually take it to jiffy lube? Most likely just bolt on stuff they have.

Afaik Brabus doesn't make anything for the 606. But they do make a heck of a lot of stuff for the W210. All of which isn't cheap.
The fact that it was at a Jiffy Lube says a lot. Probably a lot of fake asian crap bolted to it. Lots of knock off Brabus stuff.

Brabus is an aftermarket tunner, you get what you pay for. Lots of Brabus cars have the star. I suspect he just invested his money in the B for max bling.
It costs a lot of money to mod a car with real Brabus stuff. $10k will get you a body kit, wheels and some other stuff.

I was once cruising down the highway when a W210 drove past me two lanes to my right. I noticed it had an AMG badge on the right part of the trunk lid. Then I looked on the left side and saw E320.
I just cracked up. Anyway, we all love to have power, and if we can't afford the power, we still like to look like we have it.

As best I can tell ..... if you take the badge and subtract the actual engine size you end up with a number that is inversely proportionate to penis size

If anyone watches the HBO series Entourage, there was a funny subplot in one of the shows were the sleazy agent re-badged his wife's S500 as a S600 without telling her.
