Cool or not cool?

Fantastic 5 · 12-09-2020, 09:51 PM

Wondering if it would be cool to get a M branded laptop bag or not? I like it and I think it's cool, but would some think it's cheesy?

Thoughts please as I don't want to be "that guy"....lol

Who gives a shit what anybody else thinks. If you like it, get it.

Greer · 12-10-2020, 01:59 AM

I have one, so it must be cool. LOL.

Earlando86 · 12-10-2020, 03:50 AM

I have a lot of M Branded things from bags to jackets. I couldn’t care less about how others feel. Plus, it allows others to spot M owners.

Dude, if you want it, get it! Truly being honest here, most people out there don’t even know what that “M” and those colors even mean (depending on where you live, of course), so they are not even going to notice it.

Whatever makes you happy. Life’s too short. That’s why we’re driving what we’re driving. To hell with anyone who has something to say about what you like, want, or have.

Fantastic 5 · 12-10-2020, 07:13 AM

Thanks all. I agree....I have always liked stuff like that...but last year I had someone mention to me that I shouldn't want to be "that guy" when I had a Jaguar umbrella (I had a SVR at the time).

I guess he got in my head a little because up to that point....I had mugs, hats, jackets.....and loved it.

Thanks for setting me straight...lol

Yep I agree with what others have said. You can pretend to be someone else, but sooner or later the real you will emerge.

LOL, this is funny! Me personally, it would have to have a small M on it, not too bold. Post a pic of it!

adeuel · 12-10-2020, 11:22 AM

The bag itself would need to be cool and useful.
Even better than what I would get that is unbranded.
I personally wouldn't buy a product because of the logo, if the product itself was subpar.
Just make sure you have the product the logo is referring to, and then buy what you want.
Nothing worse than the guy a track day driving his Type R wearing a Ferrari hat.
(I've seen one and on top of that, he was the worst technical driver out there)

Pazzo009 · 12-10-2020, 03:47 PM

If its nice and you like it, get it.

However, I have this personal thing where I won't wear any M jackets if I'm driving my M5, and I won't wear my Ferrari jackets if I'm driving my Ferrari. Maybe I'm crazy or maybe I'm not alone

lol, I'm against hats on any occasion, when I'm in my M, Rarri, or P-Car. However, when I attend events in all the clubs i'm in, I have no issue wearing a jacket or shirt to represent!

It's a GREAT idea!!

Aronis · 12-11-2020, 11:24 AM

Only if that lap top bag contains a fully loaded 2020 Apple Mac Book Pro.......if it has a windows machine in it, not so cool. LOL

spuntyb · 12-11-2020, 02:33 PM

Nope. But get it anyways.

SSM5 · 12-11-2020, 03:32 PM

I asked my friend at Nike for some good lightweight driving shoes and he sent me these

It's a cool bag and useful.....I've heard that before that....if you are driving the car, don't wear the logo gear....I'm sure no one wants to look like a silly fanboy, but a hat or a shirt is no big deal.

Think about it, no one goes to a NFL game and doesn't wear a jersey, hat, or shirt supporting the team. The guys that paint their faces. Too much....but genuine enthusiasm and support. All good.
