I don’t know how I feel about this badge here.

I think this is worse than the Mercedes light up star. At least that star is where it’s supposed to be.

It’s like the porthole that’s not a window.

I’d prefer it if that badge wasn’t on that car anywhere at all.

Those light up stars are horrific

I actually know someone who has it. Guess the model...

To be fair, the BMW logo has appeared in a pillar before. It was on the pillar on E9 models.

It’s either on the absolute cheapest model or the most expensive.

Does it have one on the other side as well? Because if so, that’s terrible.

Kinja'd!!!

There is only 1 that can have the roundel on both sides.

It says to me that they know people buy them for the badge. Like how Jeeps these days are full of little Jeep logos.

Makes me sick

GLA or CLA.

They don’t even offer it in the most expensive cars.

Sort of... C300 4MATIC lease special. This was before the CLA arrived in Canada. There was still the B-Class which was marginally cheaper.

GLS! There’s a couple of GLSs near me that have this. So dumb

I wouldn’t like it if they just stuck another badge there, but it would be incomprehensible if someone decided to pay extra money to put it there.

I’ll give you CLA as well, my friend’s ex actually likes it and wanted to get one for her CLA...

...then my friend ditched her.

Huh. TIL that the E9 has a badge on the pillar. Neat. Ok. So there’s 2 BMWs that can.

The fender ones are okay, and so is the E9, it somehow blends with the window shapes.

This one is just looks tacked on and unnecessary.

Also, most BMW roadsters have badges on the fenders. 507, z3, z4, z8.

I don’t find the fender badging bad at all, usually it’s just pillar badging that I hate.

CLA, of course. :/

Totally fine on a slender coupe. Agreed. But this is some blobby grocery getter. Absolutely not fine there.

Yuck, it looks out of place there. BMW fender badges make more sense.

Considering there will also be a badge on the front and the back, nay.

And it’s not even straight!

They need to put a badge on every side of the car to remind you that you’re driving a BMW. Because really you’re driving a Mini.
