As I stated at the beginning, these are categorized under the M Performance class. Not to be confused with M sport class, period. Something tells me you have no understanding of the aforementioned models I reference.
I’m sorry your M340i is NOT an M car lol.
I have 2020 X3 M40i with the B58 382hp engine and F80 M3. There are many things that make M3 special and a true M car that my M40i lacks.

The ONLY reason they put the M badge on 340i or X3 or 550i is for pure Marketing BS. Previous generations never had them. An M badge should only be put on an M car same with AMG.
