Thanks, MHS. Yeah, unique/attention-getter is good. Poser/idiot is bad. To me, a poser is someone trying to fool others (usually unsuccessfully) into believing they're driving a better, well-known vehicle (like an M5) than they actually own. I'm assuming most 5er drivers know current/past models quite well, so my not-real "555i" badge is just a way of exchanging smiles on the road with fellow 5-Series owners. (Hey, I ride motorcycles...I wave at everyone.)

Now these guys are posers:
1) Acura Integra


2) Honda Accord


3) Toyota MR2
