Either proper M or not.

My understanding that in Europe, the M Sports get M badges on the front quarter panels.

And also North of the 49th Parallel.

I guess in the US they don't want to offend the X3M/X4M.

That's correct.

[TAZ007]

Does that make it a proper M then?

A discussion for another thread.

According to the 2022 look...

Yeah, definitely all over another thread. I know that I still like looking at the funny badges like the Kia M.

Right on. The pedals aren't OEM (brake is a replacement and the gas is a cover, I believe), but they feel fine -- I won't pay full price the the MSport ones so will wait if they pop-up on classified or eBay.

The metal badge came off easily so I didn't even use fishing line. Which meant I had all the adhesive foam and glue to take off.

I used an old credit card but only to rub the glue -- it never touched the paint. Isopropyl worked pretty well since the glue was old and crusty!

Just saw this on Marketplace.

Goo Gone works extremely well to remove any remaining adhesive. I have also used a plastic razor blade instead of floss or fishing line. No matter what method I use I spay a lubricant such as soap and water when cutting through the adhesive.

besides the fraudulent M, that new x5 body and sports package looks good.

A friend has a brand new X5 M50i all murdered out inside and out. It *does* look good and doesn't drive too shabbily either. The automated parking feature freaks me out a bit, though. I've never even had a vehicle with lane assist etc. etc., so the truck parking itself is a whole other level. I could get used to it, though.

These are so common here I'm almost surprised they aren't a factory option.

Stand aside competition special, it's a new ultra limited performance 4 cylinder.

Ohh God, not on this forum, too, what is it with this.

I've been on Ford Forums, GM Forum's, Porsche Forums, and you never see this kinda
stuff. Strips, Stripes, Go faster stripes, Neon's LED's Boy racer paraphanalia whatever,
god no shaming at all. But get a BMW and all the hayters come out.

There's a wanky little BMW forum UK based with a similar thing,
God I would have hoped that people on this forum weren't as messed up.
Seriously, don't people have anything better to do. What does it matter what badges
people put on there car's.

I admit I do like the old over the top blinging pictures of cars, they do make me laugh
but jeez, what does it matter if someone puts a wrong badge, a different badge or shit like that on there car.

I mean, I do NOT understand, why putting a badge makes you peoples blood boil.

Why, explain it ? what does it matter in the grand scheme of things

It's "THERE" car, they bought it, they can do whatever they want to it.

It's only a badge.

Car people care. It's not a Bmw thing. https://www.google.com/search?q=fale...;client=safari

Here's mine, feel free to have a good old laugh.

It's a brand new 2020 230xdrive fully loadeed, m-package, which I bought outright, I could have done the whole deal cash, but wanted the money to stay in my investments and I'm pretty proud that I can afford to save up make smart moves to buy a car for this amount of money.

I'm not loaded, or rich, I'm in customer services on an IT desk. I love BMW's and love driving this car to death.

It's not an M car, it's not a M240, it has the m-package, it is plastered with M badges all over the place, rims, steering wheel, sills, but it had the badge delete option, so why is it sacrilege for me to put 3 m badges on this car, but it's ok, to have them all over the rest of the car. I don't need an answer, I'm being rhetorical.

At least I'm giving permission to have my car's picture on here.

Nothing to laugh about, you like the car and the way it looks then own it. Oh wait, you do already.

Enjoying it so far?

No blood boiling. Never on this thread. We just like funny pictures. And sometimes the funny pictures have an M on it

Saw this on a local used car dealer's site. The stripes aren't even in the correct order.
