Had to snap a pic of this yesterday. As I mentioned in a previous post. It’s bad enough BMW slaps an M badge on models as a marking campaign, worse (in my opinion) when patrons do it themselves.
Buy it, don’t badge it! |

there was this silver Mercedes C43 AMG in Great Falls. It was obviously a fake.(C320 with AMG bodykit) But I guess the guy could get a pass because he had low number diplomatic license plates.(presumably with full immunity against everything)

Nah, no way. Australia as a ridiculous 'luxury car tax' such that any price over certain price makes the car stupidly expensive. The majority of newbie drivers in BMWs etc are hand-me-downs or parent's vehicle. This young buck probably thought their 3-series coupe is the fastest BMW ever so "hey this should also be an ///M". They will learn soon enough.

Sorry, but when it comes to BMW, they themselves are the one that put M badges on cars that shouldn't have them.
Heck, my 230i with the M-Sport package is every bit as deserving (or undeserving) to have them as the M240, M340, etc.
