I had M325ci on the back of my car for some fun I took it off the next day after a real e46 m3 drove past me

Hah, that's a real badge! A pseudo M-car from the company which is determined to water down the performance brand as much as possible. Kind of a fun car even though it hasn't been that upgraded, and the price is reasonable .

I have seen it defined as "M Performance Automobile" not developed by the BMW M group. I'm sure it's a great ride, just seems to be watering down the ///M a bit. Better than this one!

Gn1196 · 12-08-2015, 02:39 PM

This is a new one...

BMW isn't the only one. Mercedes Benz is releasing a C-class with the AMG badge and C400 on the boot lid to designate a boosted C class without the AMG V8 powerplant.

yeah, BMW WTF is that ??

it's why the M3 is my first and LAST BMW ever. Porsche and Audi next.
I have absolutely no respect for the brand anymore. the m4 is the worst car ever.

I'm not going that far with it. The ///M badge on a 235i is not that shocking considering you can by an M sport anything and considering other auto makers badge their cars with their performance brands despite not being their actual top of the line performance series autos. Maybe not as watered down as initially evaluated.

Fellfromdsky · 12-12-2015, 12:06 AM

M428i at Dumpling House in Gardena lol

wjchan · 12-12-2015, 08:39 AM

Looks like a Nissan?

Aud Dr · 12-13-2015, 11:59 PM

Where can I get a set of "320i" badges to replace the M3 badge on my F80?

paliknight · 12-14-2015, 12:23 AM

I see where the bmw owner stereotype comes from lol.

JTO24 · 12-14-2015, 08:00 AM

still on of my favorites that I've seen, personally:

ElSenor · 12-15-2015, 06:00 PM

I came out to this today on my way out of work. My car is parked to the right, just before his rear bumper, and out of camera view. I was able to pull out with having to make it a multi-point turn, but I think the people further up would've had a harder time getting out. His car is dope, he can park it wherever he wants.

Sweet M badge bro!

On the drive home, I came across a E90 335i who felt he needed to rev the hell out of his car in traffic as he was passing me. He entertained me for a few Km with a dashing display of douchebag driving maneuvers. I didn't snap any photos of it though.

We drove a rented Nissan 6MT Diesel, sheessh. Here are 2 of the many examples we saw.

Not sure if anyone mentioned yet but the x5m50d is a real model.

As is this:

This guy probably spent more on his mods then if he would have bought an M, even painted his roof black
