Agreed, but what is the point of white and blue propeller if there is nothing behind it to back it up?
When people tell me that you pay for the badge when you buy a BMW car, my argument is always what the badge stands for. It is becoming more and more difficult to justify paying for the BMW badge these days when Merc and Audi give you more (it seems) for the same price.
