Fake Badges

BOOF-M3 · 09-07-2017, 03:33 PM

My girl just saw this. And FYI she said you were driving like a nutter. Maybe he was trying to impress the M3 he cut off?

Lol..somebody in the regular e90 forum is inquiring about whether or not to throw an M badge on his 335i. I heavily considered giving him the link for this, but then I decided against it. Funny part was/is almost everybody on that forum told him not to do it. Oh the humanity..

Was given an i8 over the weekend by BMW to test drive as a purchasing decision and so I decided to make it an i8M using a bit of blue tac and an ///M badge a friend gave me for Christmas

Apologies, but the photo opportunity was too good to pass up.

Interesting that one couldn't create an "M i8" as it read "Me eight"

So this is a fake fake M badge.

... a rare C200 AMG. Presumably the AMG line that someone has promoted to an AMG

PS: we're in discussions to buy it (and retain the existing M3!), so I may've inadvertently spoofed my own car.

No firm decision yet. 90% chance of buying i8, but despite having a better than average income, it is still a significant purchasing decision.

We will have decided by Monday - I hope

I have a friend here with an i8. He loves it, but cargo capacity is limited, and ingress/egress is somewhat difficult. Those of us of the male gender will not care, but your wife or girlfriend may have a different opinion when she has to enter or exit the car wearing a skirt or dress.

Uhm, I just checked with the male designers of the i8 in reference to your concerns about females wearing a dress or skirt and entering or exiting the car...and they just smiled....

Although, I've never seen Porsche owners doing this crap. Putting a Turbo badge on a non Turbo car.

It's cause they've convinced themselves they really wanted the Carrera S
