Can't wait to put M badges on my 4.6is...

Just kidding...

But it does seem that BMW may have originally considered tagging the the 4.6 as an M. I recently purchased a 2002 4.6 and received all the original paperwork from the previous owner. One of the documents was a letter from the Vice President of Marketing congratulating the owner on the purchase of "your new BMW X5 M."

I found this very interesting and thought I would share... Anyways, the M badges arrive in the mail soon..can't wait!

You're gonna get a few comments recommending that you not put ///M logos anywhere on that truck. However, it's your truck and you should do with it want you want.

Wasn't it the year before the actual x5M this was put in production? Maybe they were just dropping the flyers early.
