Anyone who thinks an X5M is more deserving of the M badge than the Z4 M40i is arguing on behalf of BMW’s marketing department (albeit unintentionally). I’ve owned multiple generations of M3 and they all had significant compromises. All brilliant cars, but always compromised. Once they used M for tarted up SUV’s it was obvious that M doesn’t meant motorsport. That’s ok! But to argue that a bloated SUV with an overboosted engine is more M than a roadster with 380+ hp is silly.

Either way I don't think anyone should feel inadequate because their amazing car doesn’t have the right badges. Let your driving do the talking.
