Remember, as bimmer folk we know what all these number mean, but average Joe civic driver doesn't know. He just knows "BMW is expensive and nice, me want". And there's always the $ spent = horsepower theory most sheeple seen to follow. BMW = fast in most people's minds.

That's why my 335 is debaged. Only an enthusiest knows what a 335 is, and they can identify it without the numbers. To anyone else it's just a 3 series.
This^ - But I blacked out my 335i badge instead of removing it, and the roundels... When I buzz past the sheeple, all I want them to know is "Black car, fast". Nothing else descriptive.
