  • What does the model badge mean? What do other BMW badges mean? In the video we discuss the badges that are commonly seen on BMW vehicles in the US market. We touch on the model badge, M badging, xDrive & sDrive, Alpina, and more. If you have any further questions about model badging please let us know?

    What about BMWs with a badge that says "Supra"?

    M sport package also, and more important, adds sport suspension, steering and also performance of the brakes. It's not all about aesthetics it's also about sport skills of the car. Yes, is not an M model but it has additional sport characteristics which differ from a normal series model.
    There are 3 levels of M cars, first the M Sport cars, then M performance ones and finally the M ones. But people hates persons who put an M badge on the rear of an M Sport model and they are completely wrong because BMW itself put it into the M140i model without being a pure M model.
    So if I add an M badge behind a M Sport it's because it belongs to one of the three M levels inside BMW.

    I wish they would have kept the touring models in the US 😢. I have a M50i and did a stage one tune to it and now it has more hp and torque than a x5M.

    What if a car only had the M logo and no numbers after
    And also when buying a car can you decide whether car badge is on it or not

    • @TeamBimmer
      @TeamBimmer  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      If you’re referring to the rear of the vehicle M Logo specifically I’d be skeptical. Regarding your second question, usually you can’t have the vehicle de-badged by BMW although I have seen some special editions released this way.

    • @shawnparadox9299
      @shawnparadox9299 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      L is "long wheelbase"
      Li and iL is "long wheelbase injected" and vice versa
      Lxi could be "long wheelbase injected 4wd" following logic... Not fully sure tho

    I will ask BMW's CEO to retire my 13 M logos and the designation of my M sport BMW.
    Who am I to disappoint BMW designation?
    My car is an M sport car. Some M things must get to have that name.
    What's your M car? M sport or M?
    Let us know....

      M sport doesn’t make it an M series. Just has a few gifts from the M series. If you drive an M sport and drive an M series back to back the M series is a different animal than M sport.
