Yes, That is the 218i or 218d m sport active tourer/gran tourer. And that is an official bmw factory press car
Yes, thats right, BMW's ///Marketing division is putting out official factory M badged FWD cars (MPV's non the less!...) with a 2 litre petrol or diesel engine no less...
That's what that badge is worth nowadays. I think bmw is the only one to go that far with marketing their top of the line logo's

Was behind a super rare E93 ///M335i today. Can't believe we don't have more of those in the wild around here.

I see what you're saying. His badge placement is all wrong though and there is no 5 series that's an M like the M550i besides the M5. The 5 series with the M Sport Package are all badged M Performance.

What I'm saying is, if its not a M5 nor a M550i, then it probably shouldn't have an M badge on it unless it was a M Sport, which are badged M Performance anyway. I think the M badge is a bit much on the 5 I posed.

Not a poser putting on a fake badge. My wife's X6 with M Sport package has an M badged steering wheel as well.

I wish I could have gotten video of the turd I drove past yesterday on the 5 fwy here in socal. 430i with M4 badge on the back. I see this and immediately pull up next to the guy. I just shake my head and see him kinda hang his head in shame. He then slowed down substantially so that he fell way far behind me. What a turd. I'll never understand the need to do this.
