Seriously i dont see why all the hatin on people that have the M badge??
I know for a fact that a few countries have the M badge put on from the shop and its usually for the M spec cars ie trim and bodykit.

Me, personally i usuallyl debadge the exterior of all my cars.

Our 135i also come with M badges on the side sills, steering wheel and gear knob i believe.. standard...

That's cause it comes with an M kit, same with the 125i when you get the optional M kit - M have actually put parts on the car.

But putting the "M" badge on the rear of your car, trying to show like the model is actually an M designation is a forgery.

And leave the 320 there too just makes you look like a loser, imo.

But each to his own - if you want to label a car what the manufacturer knows isn't, then go ahead, i'll just have a quiet chuckle and move on. But this case served me with a great laugh

BMWRX · 10-30-2009, 01:21 AM

It looks like it has M-Spec wheels on it (and is that an M rear bumper?).

As part of the WRX brigade, I been caught up in the argument about guys putting STi badging on a standard WRX. I believe that if you have installed STi parts on the car then you, within reason, can throw an STi badge on your car, similar to if you put a Tein sticker on to denote their suspension being installed.

So, by that argument (in a very long winded way), if he wants to put the M badge on as a result of the wheels, then so be it. Although, you're right that it looks odd having an M badge immediately next to a 320i badge.

Or maybe it's the ultimate sleeper, with only the single M badge hinting towards it's demonic underpinnings..............

wkthyk · 10-30-2009, 01:26 AM

Funny is I have seen quite a number of these M badges on some older 3s and 5s, would that be put by a few particular dealers back that time?

WAY · 10-30-2009, 01:36 AM

That is a M sport pack 3 series. So I guess in a way it's justified that he puts the M badge. I'm waiting for someone to laugh at my X5 because it has the M badge at the rear, then smoke them at the taffic light. Lol

BMW86 · 10-30-2009, 01:45 AM

That's a sick looking M320i

kingtut1970 · 10-30-2009, 01:51 AM

You're probably right - the car was parked outside of Sky News at North Ryde/Macquarie Park

I'm with minijet on this one.

He has an M sport kit.

I dont believe he is deceiving people or comitting a ''forgery'' as he clearly still has his 320 badge on. The majority of people would not believe that this is an 'M' car anyway. He has not gone to great lengths to hide the fact he has a 320.

He likes the M badge and like a lot of enthusiasts probably aspires towards having one.

It could even be dealer added. I have heard stories of dealers adding them to help sell slow moving cars. Try to sucker in people attracted to the M badge.

in the shadow it looks like it has 2 exhausts, do regular 320s have this?

Not sure about the E46, but all 4 cyl E90s only have a single exhaust... except this guy might've just changed it himself.

Taymaishu, the car must've grown an M badge after feeling so inadequate parked next to yours.

Ha

On that theory, me being parked next to the 740, i should have grown a new set of balls

Jeef Beef · 11-01-2009, 07:37 PM

Nah, no one wants to look like an E66 7 series cos they're ugly as sin. I'm surprised it did not hide its face in shame.

On a side note, it's that an Audi A4 parked next to the 7?

BrokenVert · 11-01-2009, 07:51 PM

I think they didnt do it for E46s. But some bimmers from the 90s have an M variant package and are badged just like that. ie, ///M535i to denote that they have some ///M bits, but arent full ///Ms.
