    Must be some sort of vandalism/joke, no one in their right mind would ruin a car like that.

    Hell I wouldn't be laughing if someone ripped off the Audi badges from my engine (which everyone could see)... lol.



    Why would anybody do that to such a perfect car? Only thing I can think of is that maybe they're rebadged as BMW's in.... Russia is it?

    When the badge swap is this obvious it can't be factory. That's just ridiculous!

    at least say its an 840i...

    I reckon its someone's idea of a joke...or else the owner is a complete douche!!

    +1 for the dealer that managed to actually pass this off to the customer!!

    One theory on the other forum is that it's someone trying to get out of parking tickets. So when they write it up it reads BMW and they get off on a technicality.

    Personally i think they should be hung!
