Welcome. That's really nice! Is it your car? Plz update your location and signature.

Most likely is from Hong Kong or Asian region by looking at the magazine which was held by a person in the photo.

I'd say China because the steering wheel is on the left. Hong Kong has the British road system so the driver would sit on the right.

I see your point Peter and agree, BUT we do not have to blame a person for his car, car and person should be respect separatelly.

I remember when I joined this Forum, there was not a BIG issue what kind of badges one put on its ride ...

I just laugh on things like that (gills)

AND THEN WHAT ABOUT THIS???

http://forums.e60.net/index.php?showtopic=24464

Yeah that is true, i agree on that.
We don't need to blame this person because he loves the looks of the ///M E60.
I also love the spoilers, mirrors, rims,... of the ///M5 but yeah of course: I wouldn't put an ///M5 badge on it if it isn't. But hey, its his car so let him do what he wants... (and yeah, if he loses a drag race: his fault)

I also agree that it isn't really nice that many people have the same looking car, so maybe he wanted to be a little individual.

So don't just judge people on the looks of the M5 looking things. It just looks great and if he wanted that, let him do that. (But to be true, i don't see the point nor the function of it since it is a 530i and is already good ventilated...).
