It's a 5 series wagon with sports body kit.... but seriously?? Is this an option or do these tools request or install the badge themselves??

If I drove a real /M, I'd be pissed if I saw this.

someone went to a lot of trouble debadging and sticking it on there I think. Unless its a real M5 touring it shouldn't be there... I don't think non-M cars with a M sport package ever got a badge on the back.

On the E39 540i M Sport package cars, BMW put M Badges on the trunk. I know a friend of mine has one. Not sure if the E60 with M Sport packages have the same thing.




And completely off topic, Jarrad I posted you out some M badges for your trunk, Get em on before the cruise.

It wasn't an M5, and the driver didn't look like the sort of person to mod a car, especially with an ebay badge.

My guess is it was either requested during purchase or it came as stock?

Mark, thanks for the badges mate! I hope you sent me two - one for each nut

Ive heard that Euro deliveries may have not gotten those badges, Could be why you have never seen any.

I could be wrong on this, But Ill speak to my mate who works for BMW im sure hell know.

its noy an option from BMW i am almost 100% sure .

If you like i can copy you a list of all the SA options and youcan see for yourself.

All E90Msports aren´t fitted with an ///M badge, US or Euro spec? can it be that no one who ordered one of these from the dealer ever asked for it to be fitted ? Doubt it..

I think its more your mate is taking you for a bit of a BMW noob

There's a VW R32 getting around brisbane with "1.8TD" badge on the back... that's at least half funny.

.. its not the point i was making.
Why are there no e90 Msports with M badges?

If badging was/ is an option, how comes there isnt 1 on this forum with a badged Msport from the factory?

I dont want to debate it with you, nor do i want to call you on your knowledge of BMW but i think you should get you friends last 7 digits from his chassis nr, and i can tell you direct from BMW if it was fitted from factory

Maybe you should stick to your own regional forum.
