The color makes them look, the badge makes them want to beat you. I drive an 8 year old 328 that obviously can’t compete off the line against most everything out there with a 0-60 of 7 seconds or slightly less. At least once a week there is someone pulling up next to me who wants to race or just beat me to the left lane. Most of the time I just take my time starting off not giving a crap as they speed away with a big hard on likely texting I just kicked a BMW’s butt in a race. Every now and then I go for it by outsmarting the challenger, meaning watching the traffic and the traffic light in the opposite direction, timing a perfect green light start. I enjoy pissing off civic SI kids getting in front of them as they get pissed and tail gate me. Perhaps if I had the power I would do this more often as a middle aged man with the immature mind of a teenager...

My point is de-badging your car won’t change a thing. As long as it looks like a BMW, challengers will be everywhere!
