Mercedes Benz owners don't go around "debadging" their vehicles.

That's exactly the point. Anyone who adores road feel wouldn't get a Mercedes Benz. Mercedes owners are primarily interested in comfort and status. You don't hear about enthusiast websites (like this one), aftermarket performance parts or car clubs for Mercedes drivers. You have to get an AMG version for a M-B to perform like a stock Bimmer.

Mercedes is just for show. It's the Rolex of cars.

Here in Los Angeles, there will always be someone richer than you with a nicer car and a hotter woman. The S500 drivers are cringe when they see a S600. S600 owners wish they had the Bentley in front of them; the Bentley drivers are humbled by the rapper in the Maybach at the traffic light.

I am certain that if I got my car modded by Alpina, Dinan or AC Schnitzer, I would debadge them too. You can't win if your esteem is tied up in the label on the back of your car.

Penile enlargements might help.
