The new BMW badging is getting ridiculous, from both a length and placement standpoint. I couldn't believe how bad this M850 badging looked at the dealership. The M is not lined up to the 850.

Good Lord.

Looks absolutely hideous.

The "///M" is actually crooked.

I agree.

Thats what happens when an M badge is put where it doesn't belong. The M should only be followed by a single digit.

As far as OP's car is concerned...its perfect!!

Every single one of my father's BMWs have been ordered without badges. It's just another option as you build out the vehicle.

Beautiful color! Love the interior as well.

Don't like ///M badges showing up on EVERYTHING BMW seems to be producing anymore.

You can de-badge any car. It's just double sided tape. Cars come with badges and you can have the dealer take them off.

I'm having the tiny spoiler on my 850 taken off because it looks dumb. It's just double sided tape holding it on.
