I would prefer BMW didn't dilute the M badge but on the other hand I don't need 50 M badges to know I'm driving an M4. Now, this "SAD" car, from behind it's obvious the M badge is fake and the license plate frame is trying to sell it but the front.... This is one reason why I put a little more money into show than go. See my car coming down the street and there's no doubt! |

Why?
Everyone who knows anything about cars will recognize it as a M4 (exhaust, hood bulge, CF roof, front fascia, brakes). And anyone who knows nothing about cars will continue not giving a shit about what kind of car you are driving. De-badging a M car is like taking the stripes off of a zebra...it still runs like a zebra, sounds like a zebra, smells like a zebra, and looks like a zebra (sans stripes), and everyone with a half-decent IQ still recognizes it as a zebra!!! You're not fooling anyone (at least anyone who really cares about cars) and the only one who gets satisfaction out of it is the owner....which I guess is all that matters...

Ford Fusion Mondeo Cobra!
I saw this super rare, super fast "Ford Fusion Mondeo Cobra" in the parking lot of the Ralphs Grocery store near where I work in Westlake Village, CA. What is the point of this? I honestly think it is not a bad looking car. Why not just be proud of what you have? I appreciate this car and others like it though, I really needed a good laugh.

This argument comes up all the time. People who know cars know what is fake and what is real. People who don't know cars don't care. If a person has a a non-OEM M-badge on a non-M car, they aren't impressing anybody that that knows what they are looking at. That said, its not a crime either way. Its their car and if they want to look stupid in the eyes of knowledgeable car people, then I say go for it; it just give us something to giggle about. If an true M owners want to debadge their M's, then they should do so. Why should anybody else care? |
