I think its all in fun. Kind of like when someone drives a peice of crap with a bumper sticker that say's "my other car is a ......". I mean come on, they aren't fooling anyone and no one could be stupid enough to think they are....right?

I like how it doesn't fit perfectly, and there is blank space on the sides of the badge

I was fortunate enough :D to pull into a parking spot directly in front of this person @ Home Depot yesterday. What luck I have!

Sorry for the poor quality pic. Used my Treo.

Smiley, just curious, was this taken in Wheaton?

Be on the lookout for the guy with the new body style 5-series with the M5 badge on it, he's also got the chrome trim on the taillights. :tsk:

Speaking of badges that don't belong on the wrong car.....I was cruzin through ebay looking at X5 and came across a 2000 4.6is....hmm.....so just for fun I emailed the seller and ask what was up. His reply....the previous owner put 20" 4.6 wheels and a 4.6 badge and the tires are really wide so I probably won't like it.......ok, like he know's me or something, but no response to why he was advertising it as a 4.6. :dunno:

Wow... Someone's going to get a nice surprise if they buy that car sight-unseen.... :rolleyes:

I am hoping that people do a little research first but with all the stupid people in the world there is a pretty good chance someone will buy it and think they are driving around in a 2000 4.6 (its gold and has no trim kit either) :bustingup

I was at the Home Depot in Upper Marlboro. They were fully stocked in there. I was impressed (I visited two others on the way that didn't have what I wanted).

I was just at home depot tonight and saw a Bentley. Hmmmm I thought that was weird that Bentley drivers went to Home Depot.
