My 5 came with the 'M' package (but honestly, it's marketing - changing the front bumper, lowering the suspension a tad, and adding M door sills won't suddenly transform the vehicle beyond looks)
My biggest peeve is however, the amount of 'M' logos in an M car. That just seems tacky. My thought is always 'huh did you forget what you are driving and need to be constantly reminded/reassured?'

100% true! AMG does the same unfortunately with real AMG cars. BMW charges too much for M package on non M cars and it doesnt really transform the car. They found a loop hole that makes them good money! At least the Competition package on M cars actually does something, imagine if it was just cosmetic upgrades???
