Agreed, but it's only possible because the basic paradigm for BMW cars (by and large) is exactly that of every other commuter car. It's only us fanatics that notice much beyond the badges (the hips, the exhaust, the size of the tires, the stance, etc.).
If the car had a different paradigm, say that of my Lotus, the badge itself wouldn't matter. My Exige says "LOTUS" on the back of it, and has a Lotus badge on the front, yet usually the first question every normal person asks is "what is it?"
Maybe I should put an M badge on it
