Agree, but in a sense it is tasteful.

I thought this was like an armored car with extra reinforcement when I first saw it.

That's some dedication to faking it. The way it's executed actually makes me think that an M4 Gran Coupe wouldn't be the worst idea. But at that point, it's just an M3 with a more gradual roofline.

A quick look under the hood at the non-M motor or a vin check tells the tale though. And there is that sunroof.

If you exist within public domain and make-up part of society, there's an argument to be had.

I'm unsure of the point you are making concerning one's private property and the aesthetic choice they make for said property.

Our ability to judge others for their aesthetic choices remains personal until we push them into the public domain. But then again, that is opinion.

Do you drive your (private) vehicle on (public) roads? Do you park at (public) venues. Do humans have eyes to see and minds to perceive?

I would argue the onus is on you not to care what others think, rather than to try and silence them from having an opinion.

That's actually how objective societal opinion forms. From a multitude of subjective opinions. If 90% of ten million people think your car is ugly (I'm using this an example..), then it is objectively ugly. It is still subjectively beautiful to you, and you should not care what the rest of the world thinks.

Sorry for taking this off topic.

Thank you for making my point.

You're not fooling anyone. Everyone knows that isn't a diesel. Put the i back on there and stop pretending you got something better than you do.

LOL, and yet somehow you seem to have been fooled. There is no "i" in the original badge of this car.

To be fair, I don't know if the 520 even existed. I have no knowledge about older BMW.
