Saw this at a car meet in Taiwan.
E90 M3 with 320i badge.

Legitimately thought it was a 320i with M3 bodywork until the engine fired up...gave me a good laugh :

Nah, different bumper than the e39 M5. A buddy of mine has a similar e39 5 series. Exhaust is tucked under the bumper for some reason.

Living in the SF bay, I was considering rebadging my M as a Prius. Where is the correct location for the badging? I wouldn't want people to see through the disguise.

***with temp tags, then new owner could have purchased it like that. Doesn't excuse the prior owner if that's the case.
That's a fake badge x 2 since that is a 528i.

So I'm in Singapore and saw this... but something just didn't feel right, did BMW release a m4 gran coupe diesel?! (had a gran coupe badge on the rear side window) granted cars here are expensive... and I've seen plenty of "evos" bit still.. put on an m3 badge, not m4. Not just the US this happens in lol

Yeah if you're going to spend the money on emblems, at least get the right one's. I can't imagine that the price is any different for M3 vs M4 logo's.
Good catch on that one

Foolin' No-one

AND... the day before saw a non-M car with more M badges plastered over it than my own M3.

It had a ///M Power decal running along the entire lower panel beneath the doors. I would've loved to have taken a picture, but it was going in the opposite direction.

Spotted a blacked out "///M320i" today. M next to the 320i plus M license plate frame.
