I'd say no. It's pretty tone deaf to be walking around letting people know you're feeling superior about a car that can be leased for $439 a month

Cringe.

And sorry to the G30 owners but that's not a "cool" or rare car in the way an M3, 911, etc. are. There's a 5er at every stoplight.

I agree with the above. It probably would have been worth it, if it were M5

It’s not a gt2rs or a 720s

LAME IMO almost as bad as rebadging it to a M5

M5 I might be ok with though - this is no M5

I respectfully disagree with you on that "there's 5ers at every stoplight". Perhaps at your neck of the woods....but in my area, it's not a common sight. It's more like late model Toyota Camrys or Hyundai Elantras (not that there's anything wrong with that) at every stoplight where I live. Basically, your statement may not apply everywhere. Just sayin'.

I wouldn't mind that hoodie with just the car picture. All the silly wording needs to go.

This is not something I’d buy. I have owned some brag worthy car and would not rock a sweatshirt like this subbing those either.

We some time forget how lucky we are to drive these expensive cars new. Any car with few options that costs more than £40000.00 is not cheap in absolute term. In the UK you are charged extra £300.00/year or so on road tax for a car costing more than £40000.

closest I would get, and no I don't have one (yet) to supporting a brand of car is possibly a BMW baseball cap, but even that is a bit bougie even for me... but then again, if you like the hoodie, go for it.

It would only be cool if you wore it ironically. But then no one would be sure if you were serious or not.

To each their own.....wear it proudly or jokingly, or whatever your little heart desires. It's a free country.

The hoodie message is true in a general sense too. As an example, if you haven't owned a Mazda 3, you'll never understand how god a car that is for the money.

As far as the G30 cars being common, that certainly ain't true in my neck of the woods. One can see Series 3 vehicles much more often than the 5s, but even the 3s are not that common in my town.
