He isn't trying to be a m3, no quads, no kit. My 335 Msport came with the M badge just like that direct from the dealer. In my country it's normal for full Msport /mperformance cars to come with the ///M badge directly from dealership
No BMW comes with a single M badge on the trunk. Those M badges that you are talking about are usually on the fenders.

At the risk of sounding obvious and raise the ire of their owners.... shouldn't thread be full of M Sport packaged Bimmers?

I've seen around 4-5 Fake M's. Never really took a picture of them but just laughed. Next time i see them i will make sure to snap a pic for y'all.

PS: what do you guys think of grill stripes on non-m cars. Is that a bad thing/laughable? Always thought they looked cool regardless of M or not

I'll admit I've thought of taking the M off my 235i. Especially since my buddy bought a M2 a few months ago

If it's not an M or M Sport, you're a poser.

I thought that only Beretta made an MX4.

This one was at the 24 Hour Fitness in Richmond, Texas.

Darnit! I just deleted the pic, but I came across an ///M badged 740i! The guy was an owner\manager of a subway, and was bragging about how he just snagged the preowned ///M car at a good price! The funny part was that I parked my M4 right next to him near the window, and the cashier was uncontrollably laughing looking out of the window and listening to his boss go on and on about our ///M cars!!!

Also, I've seen a couple of M 330i coupes out in the wild!! Grrrr!!!

Is it common in Europe for people to debage, or replace with a lower model badge, to avoid vandals\thieves??

Debadgin yes, because of envier ppl. (Mostly @work or customer). Underrating is not common, more for fun/joking.
