You must lead an empty life if this is all you have to worry about.

WTF? If BMW M-GmbH had made an M7, that's exactly what it would have looked like

Yeah, maybe the guy had a M3 previously, you see a lot of X3,X5,M3,M5 style plates these days on cars other than BMW's. I guess it saves them keeping the plate on retention.

Can also tell its american advert as says 4.0 V8 so great fuel economy lol I think the americans are living in a dream land just wait to the cost of fuel is the same as ours and then see if they still call it economical lol.

It's in New Zealand, but that doesn't mean we can't still have a little dig at the Yanks!

Oddly I saw the 3 series in the first post a couple of days ago near Temple Meads driving around with both wing mirrors folded in

Badge says 'M' not 'M3" just means they've bolted on some M parts.

Maybe thats his name. Mark, Matt, err...something beginning with M.

Mutt...?

Afraid not! Whaddya reckon, an M3 badge on the back of my Clio 197?

I've seen a clio M3 before, and a Fiesta M3

Both were hilarious!

There's a beige Nova (saloon) M-Sport near my house in Southampton. Glad some people have a sense of humour

Well they are obviously brain damaged I do find it amusing the lengths people go to here to show the difference between the real thing.

Now this is proper fail:

[The Black Duke]

My missus took in a Kia Sorento with an M badge. She realised it wasn't by the way!

[hewlett]

Just today, I don't know enough about the brand to know if this is legit btw.

[hewlett]

But I guess it isn't..

You would be right... it's a 2.0 diesel 'M Sport'.

[pjmobile]

Ah that would the one that lived by me. By a VW garage there I assume? Used to park it across two car parking bays - well you can as it's a "proper M" Guy used to have a focus Zetec previously....with an RS sticker on the back!

[hewlett]

Spot on, I think the guy lives in the estate behind the VW place.

So he's wrong - it's a 320Cd M Sport. Therefore it's not badged up as anything it isn't. Whilst the factory didn't put that badge there they did put the 8 other ones fitted to that car in other places on there. He's hardly pretending it's an M3, it's still badged as a 320Cd!

Fake M3's which require derision look like the picture I posted above, not that chaps Cabrio.

I saw an old shape A4 a few days ago with cheap plastic bumpers, cheap quad exhausts and RS4 badges.
I really wanted the driver to come into work so I could explain to him that they didnt do a RS4 saloon in that shape haha
It didnt even have the wide arches and had new shape RS4 rims, how bad a fake???

The factory aren't likely to have positioned it so badly. Should've been before the 320 Cd or after IMHO. Might have been better to move the 320Cd over to the left.

It's amazing the number of 3 series you see about with M/M3 badges on them, just wait 'til you hear those 4 cylinders roar though!
