You don’t have to purchase one. Stick to the “true” M.

Apparently you missed the words “most” and “a lot”. Both entirely accurate. The “a lot” refers to the snarky comments directed at the OP for asking his questions. And it happens a lot on this forum when it comes to how BMWAG badges their cars and what those badges may or may not mean. So, I’ll say again, come back after you’ve been active on this forum for twenty years and I’ll take your question more seriously.

Not sure what’s worse, the sticker or the fact the font is wrong

That’s the sedan (or ‘Gran Coupe’) version of the 2’er. And the M235 is the “high end” version of that model.

Doesn’t make it the M version of anything. It’s not even related to the M2, totally different platforms and driveline configuration.

Multiple posts on this thread come from folks in other countries, not “Ugly Americans.” I wish you could see the irony in your posts, but I’m done arguing and will leave you to your high horse.

Why does M Performance roll up into M lol? Those cars have nothing to do with M Gmbh as they state lol... the B58 is not an M motor in any way... it sits in a base X7 and base X5... that's a really strong marketing graphic right there... also what's the difference between an X3 w m sport pack / brakes and an X3 M50 lol or an M340i and a 330i? Oh yea the B58... that same one that sits in non m cars

Like the great Dave Chappelle once said:
"They made me mad, so for revenge, i bought 5000$ worth of chewing gum, and spent the whole night giving it to the homeless. So they can chew it all day long and STILL be hungry!!"
