Do you really think that "would of" makes any kind of sense or are you deliberately using slang? I'm guessing that this is how semi-illiterate people say "would've" which is "would" + "have" but how could "would of" make any sense?

There's no IQ or proficiency test required for internet access. It's open to people of all levels of intelligence and knowledge. Go sample an average high school English class and you'll see the same types of mistakes. I was appalled the first time I got an e-mail from my 21 year old cousin. Her spelling, grammar, etc. were just horrific. I don't expect people to be perfect, but some of the blatant errors she was making were embarrassing. But that level of education seems to be common for people coming out of the public school system these days. I have no explanation for it.

It's the internet. Who cares? I think we all know what he was getting at. Maybe save grammer topics for off-topic?

It looks like a mini SLS AMG from this front angle imo.
470 bhp in the SLK(55?) AMG will definitely produce mind boggling performance stats.

lol I see too many people misuse "would've". They just type "would of" because it sounds like it when you say it. Quite sad when you see it, it absolutely makes no sense lol.
