The M Badge thing is bloody annoying.
It certainly is. This horrifically sad national trend has put me off from buying a real M model in the past. Looks like nothing has changed with regard to the baggage the BMW brand comes with. k-ink said:

It has not put me off wanting a real M car. I really want to get an M3/5 within the next few years when my current lease is up, hoping to set enough money away for one anyway. If I do end up getting one, I will take pure joy from sitting next to these fake M posers and letting them see a real M car. Near every single poverty spec BMW is sporting a damn M badge. Just because they upgraded to a firmer suspension package does not make a 318D a sports car. Sick of it. My Wife now points out all the crap. I know you shouldn't let certain people put you off a car. However I see so many BMWs with fake badges on all the time. It is beyond sad. BMWs are affected far more than any other brand I have ever seen. There is clearly a certain type of desperate person who feels the need to align themselves to the brand. I am not sure I can bring myself to join them. Despite the fact many of their older cars are rather cool. Hopefully these pathetic losers will attach themselves to something else at some point.

Really? You are seriously saying that you have been put off buying a particular car because some other people you don't know stuck a badge on their own car - difficult to decide which is the sadder behaviour.Gassing Station | General Gassing | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
