What I find funny is that non-enthusiasts don't know/care what an M badge signifies, while enthusiasts know the M badge on a normal BMW signifies that the owner is a poseur at best. A guy who lives up the street from my BIL has a dead stock 1993 325i which has an M3 emblem on the trunk. I keep hoping I'll run into him so I can tell him,
"Gosh, neat car! Except for the wheels, the front airdam, the side molding, the side skirts, the mirrors, the rear valence, the seats, steering wheel and the exhaust, it looks just like a real M3."
