Poser ALERT ///M5C

quibbs · 04-04-2019, 08:48 PM

Tomorrow I am going to remove the competition part of the M5 badge on the rear of my car and pretend it's an M5 base.

Now that's the funniest response

Wouldn't that be so humble ?

Humblebadging = acceptable practice

Bragdging: not acceptable practice

mwlmd · 04-04-2019, 08:59 PM

The good news is he placed the "competition" portion above the M5 Badge to make it his own.

LOL

I'm calling BS. I don't think you actually added the poser badge, which is why you cannot provide photographic evidence. I think you're trying to get everyone fired up lol

Here it is

Vic55 · 04-04-2019, 09:10 PM

If this was reddit, it would be downvoted into oblivion, lol...

Maybe it's just a social experiment, but you must feel you need that extra recognition from others on the street to lie about your car

r33_RGSport · 04-04-2019, 09:22 PM

You should badge it to 530e.
So you can get away with speeding ticket.

Pimpsy · 04-04-2019, 09:35 PM

Seriously, it's ridiculous to mis-badge your car. Fix ASAP.

It's a lease

Everything has an upside if you just look hard enough.... Make use of this unique opportunity - drive back to the dealer and confidently assert they they are asshats for leasing you an M5C without knowing anybetter; then demand a free coffee. Let us know what happens next

In all seriousness - better to debadge than misbadge IMHO

I think that badge increased his resale value. Is there any way to verify if a car is a competition edition other than the badge? (Sic)

Wouldn't the VIN check show it?

mwlmd · 04-04-2019, 11:32 PM

This will be from here on known as the "competition mod." 😂😂😂

av.7447 · 04-05-2019, 12:17 AM

lol, competition badge is already lame by itself regardless of what model M5 it is... reminds me of the Chinese putting the word fashion on all their lame clothes they sell at flea markets. In my opinion, BMW should have kept “competition package” rather than switching to the “edition”. But hey, people lately are into lame rediculus trends so maybe it works for them, who knows! As for you liking some badge or a sticker, it is your car and should do with it whatever makes you happy and not care about other people’s opinions... I saw an M5 sticker on a Buick once in China... watever, it makes the guy happy, let him enjoy life and be thankful he made you smile! 😅
