Yeah lots of fakes out there. If I saw it parked in a lot, if I was in a bad mood, I'd probably engrave fake into the paint.

I always keep a roll of painters tape in my trunk for situations like these. I usually spell out on their trunk:

-LOL
-POSER
-FAKE
-535i
-528i
-Or I'll just tape over the ///M!

Hahahaha!

Don't be so quick to judge. I think that is an E60 M5 pre LCI with several 550i performance upgrades: Upgraded to 550i exhaust and rear bumper etc...

You will no doubt see some F10 M5s with some 550i Dinan stage 4 upgrades as well.

?

That didn't make any sense to me...

Are you saying it's an E60 M5 or a E60 550i?
If it's a M5 I would hardly say that its an upgrade with 550i exhaust and rear bumper...

And what do you mean by F10 M5 with 550i Dinan stage 4 upgrades?

So he's meaning F10 "M5" as in a 550i with Dinan upgrades and M5 badges...
Or E60 "M5" wich really is a 550i...

The thought that that was what he meant crossed my mind, but there was no smileys to suggest he was being ironic/sarcastic

He must have saved a bucket load of $, and has a faster car than an e60 m5. I bet he is proud of himself.

So as Urban Legend points out this was a heavy inside joke.

The story is that there have been various hobos posting threads claiming their souped up Dinan 5 series is better than an M5. Many of us know it is bullshit because several of us had 2012 Dinan 550is before upgrading to the 2013 M5 (myself included).

Anyway jokes like the one on this thread are mocking these delusional Dinan driving 5 series twits.

So it's sarcasm in the context of the previous threads saying that an m5 owner may have wanted to go for the single exhaust outlet to create the superior Dinan 5 series look!

Here's another one. Maybe we should do a license plate lookup and send him some fan mail.

Thats F**cked up. I dont see why everyone gets so angry about this. Obviously the guy respects your car soooo much that he rebadged his to look like yours.

Yeah I don't think anyone here would disagree that is not cool. I consider anyone who does something like that (damages someone else's car for no valid reason) to be the lowest of the low. Normally it's done by someone who doesn't have an M5. Because I'm pretty sure he is an M owner, I'm hoping that was a joke of some sort. I'm pretty sure it was.

Here is one that is even worse..
Notice I rated his car a ZERO and tried to turn his DSC off. I don't think it worked but was worth a try.
