Exclamation Got a picture of a 330i rebadged to M340i

Just couldn't resist from posting this. I'm waiting for a Portimao G20 myself (at the port now) and saw this at the office parking lot so wanted to check out the color combination until I realized...

From the front it's still 330i - grill and vents are not swaped. The badge is in incorrect space if you compare to real M340i. And different exhaust, of course.

Shocked that someone would bother doing this. Just why?? :facepalm:

Uuhhhh... you might want to hide his plate number. Would not want him to come back at you for posting his plate number.

we don't get the 320d in the US. It's definitely a 330Xi.

LOL this is hysterical

I put a M Badge upside down on my G20 330i as a joke for 2 weeks, W for the wins Didn’t know someone would seriously try and pass on a 330i as a M340i, this is great.

Thanks for making my day

I have been thinking about removing the M340i badge and putting on an Accord badge.

Ridiculous. Why do people do this? There's no shame in owning and driving a 330. Please leave a note, as suggested.

What I don't understand is

1) Non car enthusiasts won't know/care about the badge anyway
2) Car enthusiasts will see this and just think he/she is a complete tool (as evidenced by the responses above)

Just seems like a lose-lose situation to me.
