Looks like he's poking fun at himself and his economy sh!t box, I'm okay with that.
Sort of like a Kia with a Lambo badge.

To his credit as well, that looks to be a really well maintained car... no "Camry dents" and on proper winter tires to boot.

Couldn't get the shot but it didn't have BMW wheels so not being a X5 history buff I couldn't tell. If nothing else they suck at up keep.

That's the one that Clive Owen launched in that Bmw films clip called "star" I think, with Madonna in it. It was the best

If you have time, listen to the interview afterwards , "the car took off, and never worked again"

I'm starting to wonder if people put M badges on their cars because it amuses them to know that there are people who will keep a thread like this going after 235 pages of monotonous sameness.

Are you one of them?!

BMW “M lite”, which means the owner is justified in having the plate frame.

well, my local dealer gives this M plate frame out a gift to everyone who purchases anything M related so M340, M550 to full M5C M8.... so it looks fine, at least to me.

Also, this person's X6 M50i is more expensive than a few actual M series out there.

It is funny though that BMW has adopted the same approach as many of these fake badges.

The fake M badge on an X6 50i from a few years ago are now official when it’s basically the same car.

… and I got a real M and no free plate… what a rip off!
