Haha I see you took my response the way you wanted it to so that you could bring up this badge argument.

I meant exactly what I said (and what the other poster responded to you with). I drive an M235i. That's right, it is an *M*235i. I am not claiming anything else then that. And as far as my next comment, yes - the performance on the car backs it up to put it up there with what you want to define as a "true" M car.

Sorry, we are making you feel bad because we spent "2/3" the price, have M plastered 16 places on the car, can compete and looks equally as great (subjective)..

To make you feel better and to negate your other argument, yes, I would have bought the car even if it would have been called a 135is, but sorry, it is not. I drive an M.




235i.
