We went hiking today and were lucky to catch a glimpse of the elusive, limited edition Frozen Rustoleum Blue (Silver Anniversary) ///M528i in the wild!

Really blurry pic but not sure if this is fake or real. The ///M badge and quad pipes looked a bit off. Did this series even have an M5?

And what is it about people in fake M, AMG, whatever always drive like douches? Speeding off the line, tailgating, weaving in and out of boys traffic to save 5 seconds, eg all douchey driving habits. It’s like they are trying to convince others (and themselves) they are driving the real deal by driving faster than other cars - but they are only faster because everyone else is driving normally at the speed limit

Edit: It is real, and it is spectacular! (for any Seinfeld fans)

Yes, it’s a blurry pic, also yes, the E39 did have an M5 and based on the color and side mirrors it looks correct.

It is a real M and it is one of the best

I stand corrected then - looks like for once an actually elusive real ///M has been spotted in the wild!

Me thinks you mean “spectacular” 😉. Either way, you’re right. As are others. The E39 is simply timeless.

Haha, can't get anything right today. This is the most public of my many humiliations!

My 750Li has the M-Exhaust, “sport” transmission, “M-Package” ..My door sills proudly display the lighted text of “M-Performance” but I feel it’s out of place. I do love the look but,I’m of the belief that only true M-Series vehicles should have M branding anywhere,even if the non-M vehicle contains M branded parts from the factory. There is no M badge on the rear of my vehicle,and there never will be.

I don’t hate on those that choose to put an M on their vehicle,generally you can tell it’s not an M and have myself a little chuckle.

Personally, I like everything debaged including m badges I like it declutter I don’t need to know that my car is an M with an x drive with the engine size just stupid my 2022 vermillion edition x5 with frozen black metallic came from factory debaged when I called and ask them to take all badges off they said you will like this did not come with any I said amazing 🤩

Not BMW related, but a ridiculous one I came across this past week.

Looks like he's poking fun at himself and his economy sh!t box, I'm okay with that.
Sort of like a Kia with a Lambo badge.

To his credit as well, that looks to be a really well maintained car... no "Camry dents" and on proper winter tires to boot.
