+1. I think so too. All other cars are in 6 figure range. What's the chance that he has a G35.

Definitely NOT a G35...



Take note of the number blades on the grill and also the shape/slope of the front fascia.
And yes I have too much time on my hands

Definitely NOT a Mercedes, you mean? It's obvious from your chop that it's not a Benz in the OP's pic. No Benz emblem, and the grill blades are angled differently.

Nice chop, btw.

it looks like the blades are angled different because the silver benz is photographed from above

Nope...I'm saying it is definitely a MB AMG of some sort. It may not be the exact model year of what I posted (the grill slots changed a little bit between the years/models), but the lower fascia is spot on. Characteristic of AMG to have slashes toward the emblem, while regular models get slashes away if that makes sense.

Show me another car with a lower fascia like that...

Lol look at the lower front fascia!!!!

Let me illustrate:



Top row from left to right : '03-'04, '05-'06 coupe
Bottom row from left to right: '03-'04, '05-'06, '07 sedan
I believe the years are correct...

And finally, an enlarged brightened image of the front fascia of the "mystery" car *cough* Mercedes Benz AMG *cough* with green arrows for emphasis.

The emblem is "hidden" by light reflection.

Lol

and if you're STILL not satisfied, another little collage I made of various current AMG models showing the similar designed lower fascia (which interestingly enough looks pretty much like the "mystery car!" ) See the trend I was talking about?



Top: E class, S class, CL class, CLK class
Bottom: CLS class, SLK class, SL class
