Badge placement is pretty good, but sadly it is not an X5M

… can you guys spot what the dead giveaways are that it isn’t an X5M Competition?

If you can’t tell why that’s not a real X5M, click here:

Let me interrupt a thread about fake badges and insert a photo of a random man on a motorcycle, because that’s what I like and because it is not disruptive and because it makes total sense.

///M_______520d
Complete with crooked ///M and M style mirrors, and of course weaving in and out of peak hour traffic in typical fake ///M douche fashion.

I really need to learn to take better photos

Hopefully the US folks can access the site!

Legendary!

I move that after seeing this cat’s abomination we post all of those pics here and then shutter this thread.

Why yes I can.

1. No quad exhaust
2. No winged mirrors
3. Wrong rear roof spoiler
4. Rear bumper cover reflectors are horizontal and not vertical

What else?

Spot on! The chrome exhaust tips on the M-Sport rear bumper was probably the first thing I noticed along with the chrome grille in the front (not pictured). Then the wheels… everything else you mentioned followed closely after.

Probably would’ve been better if they just de-badged it and put an ///M license plate frame instead
