I saw something just like this the other day, but it was worse, had ///M stripes all over as well as the badge. It was too late to get a pic, but I pulled alongside and just gave her a disapproving look.

Man these fake M4s are the best! So funny.

Has anyone here spoken to one of the owners? What is their thought process and who is their target audience? There is a small population, one would think, who are both impressed by an M badge yet are unable to identify a real M3/4.

Go figure.

I always find it amusing also when I encounter these type of individual. I just shake my head in disgust. I have a coworker who drive an a4 with an S4 badge lol.

You win, sir. That's unreal. She should start saving all that money she's spending on vinyl on Etsy for an upgrade. At this rate she'll be be there pretty soon.

Also love that your wife drives the F80. Well done.

Another gem... for some reason the photo resolution sucks when I uploaded it from my phone. There's an M3 badge on the side of this 328i vert .
