Not cool...

Pierce330 · 04-15-2016, 12:27 PM

Even installed a dual exhaust...I bet one side is not functional

TheHouseWon · 04-15-2016, 02:23 PM

Is he a Marine?

There are youtube videos of chubby dudes in gear claIming to be vets...then they get called out by real vets.

raym3cs · 04-15-2016, 04:47 PM

I have actually seen dealers do this on certified preowned models ...just to get them to sell... i guess because of the m-sport package

///Mpower/// · 04-16-2016, 09:04 AM

He rolled up on me and wouldn't even make eye contact. He has to know he looks like a douche.

Rearview · 04-16-2016, 09:20 AM

Imitation is the ultimate form of flattery. Not everyone can afford a six-digit daily driver. Here's the reality ... most of the general population couldn't tell the difference between a 528 and an M5 if they weren't badged.

Just look at all the dipsticks that voted for Osama bin Obama ... we are a stoopid society.

SFT33 · 04-16-2016, 09:30 AM

Anyone that would care about the M and quads knows it is a fake. Why bother?

SteveC · 04-16-2016, 10:41 AM

Why not adults? Plenty of people debadge their cars in order that others think they have something more special than they do.

Jagu · 04-16-2016, 11:12 AM

Lol, I've always wondered why people get bothered by this. It's his car and he can do as he wishes. That doesn't make him a douche. He didn't steal the car.

More like a idiot. I seen this e60 528 wagon with the M badge in front of 528 and to the left it also had "alpina". lmao

platinum903 · 04-16-2016, 11:33 PM

LMAO....why wouldn't you at least debadge the 528i portion.

Boss330 · 04-17-2016, 04:00 AM

Not exactly the same, but even BMW puts M badges on the exterior of their non M models now. I think that the "only exterior M badges on true M cars" train has gone...

Well that may be the case, but I'm not on that train.

That's your opinion, and you're entitled to it. Personally, I think it's dumb.

Powerbeast · 04-17-2016, 10:54 AM

Haha agreed!

People who do this sort of badging are just immature. A teenager doing this is one thing. A grown man doing this, is well just that. I would t be bothered by it, except for maybe laughing at it.

Douche or not - who cares. It's just hilarious that there are people who are so uncomfortable about their situation in life that despite owning a 5 series they have to badge it M to get the confidence.

Nothing's wrong with your mods. It looks great as long as you have an M5 badge.

I had a 535i, I do miss the MPG. With the M5, you get more smiles per gallon (and thumbs up per gallon).
