I suspect we will see lots of knock-offs via eBay and people will add them to other vehicles. It's just too easy.

Fortunately the FT86 says SPORT without needing a badge.

Those "Luxury" badges are going to be hot sellers at AutoZone in a year or so. It's the perfect addition to the "fender vents".

I appreciate my little e30 more and more. Great little car. I daily drove it all last year and only had to replace the front pads/rotors (but I also do preventative stuff pretty often). Oh, and of course it's wonderful to drive.

Jesus that "Luxury" badge is tacky. A poster above me got it exactly right, that looks more like something awful from a GM car.

What a laugh! What's next, "Brougham"? Might as well, they're all German OldsmoBuicks now. BMW can suck it.

Think of the conversations here about BRZ vs FRS badges. Same thing, different demographic!

Personally, we prefer the old BMWs.
But it reminds me what brand my car is!
