I believe that Ashok not only de-badged his M5 but also added a 524d badge to let people believe he was driving a diesel!

Yep, me. I was rear-ended a few months ago (at a red light no less! read about it here) and when they completed the repairs, I asked for them to not put the M5 on the back.

Re: Does anyone own a de-badged M5?

Check out the M5 of board member "m5 rus" . His car is debadged on the back as well as on the sides. Plus, he has body-colored mouldings, making for a very clean, uncluttered look.

De-badged.

Those who know the car know what lurks, those that don't deserve to be smoked. There is not one little fake pocket rocket(japanese import with exhaust only modification) that I will let pass without a little dusting from the de-badged 4 door sedan.

No badge, no spoiler, no badges on the side.
