The likeliest scenario I see is that some yahoo rented the car, perhaps for a relatively extended period of time, and spent just a few extra bucks to slap some SS badges on there, in order to look cooler for a few days. Back in the day when rental cars had their owner's company plastered on the bumper, when I rented, I'd slap a generic bumper sticker on top of their sticker just to hide the shame of driving a rental. Upbadging is for losers, in my book, but if some renter did that, it's entirely conceivable that the rental agents, not always being car savvy, would henceforth believe that it IS an SS... "'cause it says so right dang there!"
