They come like that (but deleteable) in all markets but the US I think?

It's been like this since the F-series at least, so about 10 years now. There's E46's driving around with a M logo on the steering wheel that are not M cars.

Of course it's getting a diluted a bit, but stock M badges are not "fake" M badges, just like stock M performance cars are not "fake" M cars.

So this discussion is somewhat off-topic for this (light-hearted) thread.
