The M3 vs M340 or M2 vs M240 that the M lite owners bring up is a little annoying.
I have to be honest, prior to owning my G42, I probably never would have looked at it if it wasn’t for the M badge. It’s clearly a marketing tool (and an effective one).

I’ve always wanted a BMW and I wanted a quick one but I’ve never had the time to study the differences between the identifiers. The most I knew were the basics of 2,3,4,5,1! etc but I always knew the “M” needed to be on mine. Now that I have it, I want to remove it so the chump in the Tesla has no clue what they’re about to witness! Now that I have my “M-lite” I’m sucked into the culture that is BMW and love it. I can’t wait until my warranty is over so I can start playing.
