Or to mess with their heads even more, how about an AU Falcon with Mercedes logos because the Mercedes CLS kind of looks like an AU Falcon...

I spotted a Nissan 350Z the other day, with genuine Porsche badging and a heap of blue panel beaters tape over it, in an attempt to make it appear like a Porsche....Now, that was a sight to see...

I reckon the AU actually looks better than the first generation CLS, and it will be more reliable... I actually photoshopped a Mercedes logo and grill onto an AU and it turned out looking pretty classy, though the photoshop job was terrible...

Nope, genuine Porsche badges....That's how much effort the person went to.

The tape is what got me looking at it in the first place.....The badges then caught my attention, especially the one on the nose of the bonnet...

Obviously more money than cents.

or an old (Mustang) Celica. I desperately wanted one of those but my parents bought me a UC Torana instead. Friend with rich parents got one though

Probably more of a joke as there's some guy in the U.S, that owns a 350Z with BMW logos on it... Still though, it's kind of funny to see, unlike Chevy badges on Commodores...

Back in the seventies I was working on the extension to a Mercedes dealership. The grill for one of their models was worth more than my car.
