Don't they already? Comes with being a BMW driver. Will a different badge make any difference.

My Ride: 535D Sport Auto
I noticed the 535i badge with interest! Surely theres no point in BMW releasing one as the performance gain over the 530i is negligable but the cost of ownership is much higher.
Or is the badge for the old E39 535i?
Go for the 550i - you only live once
Or go a bit higher and have the 535d
really only joking Iceman

Re: 518. I have made a couple trips to SE Asia in recent months and you see some of the smaller engines in those countries. The traffic is so bad that you really can't utilize the bigger engines very often. I can't say I've seen any 518s, but i have seen lots of 520s in Singapore and Bangkok.

Wait a minute the 550i is really a 548i and the 750i is a 748i so on and so forth! 
Someone on Bimmerfest had a 540i and modified it to read 544i.

Chrome Grill, Style 123 rim, Airbags everywhere, PDC, Rain sensor, Auto lights, Moveable front armrest, Advance Climate Control, Glass Sunroof, Auto dimming interior and exterior mirror with foldable functions, Extended Lights package, 6 CD changer in glove box, Power seats with memory, Power adjustable steering wheel, Power rear sunblinds.

I think some of the badges you see up there are for the model before the E39 as the numbers of the E39 is attached together and stick on as one piece, that explain the 518 and the 535
