Paid almost $40 for this thing. Figured it was more durable being metal. Pulled it out of my cupholder this afternoon and it crumbled in my hand.

I suppose so, just expecting a $40 keychain to hang in there for more than a year. I don't even use it everyday.

$40 for an M badged product? Must be a fake, because even this costs more than that:

You have to realize that the $40 keychain that you purchased was actually an $18 keychain. If you purchased it 3 years ago.

Lol well then I would expect a $18 keychain to disintegrate. Totally reasonable.

Update: I've implemented a fix with glue

You get what you pay for. A deal at $93,000.



Came with the car. Has dealers address engraved on the back so it has a shot, very slim, of getting returned if lost. Had two keepers 2004 330 ZHP Convert & 2013 135is Convert that each lasted around 10 years.

All the lease versions were also good 36 months when turned it.

It’s the closest a G83 owner can get to a 6MT.
