Like the OP ,I would never stick an "M" badge on my X5 but I dont agree that you need to do a 12sec quarter to be an "M"!Loads of "M" cars that dont manage that!My E30 M3 didnt!
Thats my contribution to the thread
I would like to see that letter. If someone could scan that letter (with personal stuff removed).
