I love it. The M sport looks so much better than the Luxury. Why did I go for a Luxury...anyone?

rich1068 · 01-14-2013, 06:50 AM

Lovely but please lose the M badge

jtuds · 01-14-2013, 08:48 AM

What's with the M badge?

I don't have an opinion about having the M-badge. But I must say it looks way out of place where you put it. If you want one I would suggest putting it where the 335i is.

But it is your car, so don't listen to me!

The X Men · 01-14-2013, 10:11 AM

Is that a M3?

Frencholivier · 01-14-2013, 10:42 AM

looking good!

SomeRandomer123 · 01-14-2013, 10:43 AM

Great looking car, ruined by the little M badge.
I don't want to have a go at you or anything, especially with the tasteful black kidneys, but in the UK especially, that M badge means "cunt".

Lose it and you have perfection!

You should also remove the M badge from your steering wheel, wheels, and door sills. Also if you have the M performance shifter or any other added parts, oh and thats an M performance black kidney grill that needs to be removed as well. It doesn't have the M but we all know its M performance.

i like the performance grilles, nice contrast between that and the red paint

TheObviousChild · 01-14-2013, 01:27 PM

The M badge anywhere else but the rear trunk/boot lid seems to be acceptable, but when placed anywhere near the 328/335 badging,well, it's like the cardinal sin for BMW enthusiasts.

It's like, "The badging that shall not be discussed".

Tsuyoi · 01-14-2013, 01:44 PM

Actually any exterior M badging on a non M car is frowned upon. This includes idiots who put it on the front grille, on the side, trunk, etc. M performance parts are different, since they are M inspired/a tribute to M power. However, if you put the M badge only found on M vehicles where your vehicle identification usually is (IE front grille, sides, and rear trunk), then it seems like you're claiming you are an M vehicle. It's like the difference between dressing like your favorite actor/actress, vs actually having your name on your ID be their name.

Exactly what I'm getting at! Those being obtuse saying to remove ALL M badges know the score really.

That little exterior badge says so much about the driver.

godfather87 · 01-14-2013, 02:00 PM

this color doesn't seem bad at all..i like it...i don't think i seen too many red bimmers ever! Yah like someone mentioned, i would put the m beside the 335i

Why so defensive? You must have a M badge too on your trunk

You guys do know that BMW has put exterior ///M-badges on M-sport cars in the past, right?
