Guys..I'm wandering what's the actual function of M mode since I seldom use it and simply don't know when is the right time to use it. What's the M stand for, is it M for Medium or Moderate as S mode stand for Sport or some other meaning? Need some info here. Thanks..

on the ///M cars, the m-mode is to turn ur car into Motorsports mode...and for non-M cars...it is manual mode...

M = Minum.. :cheers: :24:

M means Manual loo.. you decide when you want to upshift or downshift by using the shift stick.

U need the M mode to override the auto up/down shift action..
U need the M mode to drop gear to produce engine drag..
U need the M mode for people who doesn't know how to use an Auto tranny..

If you are talking about the function of M mode, the answer would be Manual Mode.:wink:
However, if you are asking wht does M stands for, it means Motorsport.:wink:

BMW M is also known as M-Technik or just "M" (for Motorsport) and was initially created to facilitate BMW’s racing program, which was very successful in the 1960s and 1970s. As time progressed, BMW M began to supplement BMW's vehicles portfolio with specially modified higher trim models, for which they are now most known for to the general public. These M-badged cars traditionally include modified engines, suspensions, interior trims, aerodynamics, and exterior modifications to set them apart from their counterparts.

There are several BMW models which BMW Motorsport made changes on, without them becoming full M-Cars. Vehicles which have been modified by BMW Motorsport, but are not full M-Cars, may feature plain "M" badges with no number, whilst full M-Cars will have "M" badges with the model number (e.g. "M3" or "M5"). One exception to this is the M Coupe model, both Z3 and Z4 variants, which only have on the boot a plain "M" badge with no number displayed. These cars are full M-Cars.

For example, the E28 M535i featured suspension, styling, and transmission improvements over the standard 535i. These changes were carried out by BMW Motorsport, thus the car carried "M" stripe badges on the front grille and boot, but not the full "M5" nomenclature. The E28 M5 was sold alongside the M535i.

"In recent years, M badges have been used to accent non-M factory options. Examples of this include the E46 3 series, in which the performance package option upgraded the car to include M68 style rims which had small M badges below the BMW Roundels. In other instances, M styling without the badges has trickled down into non-M cars as factory options. For example, both the E39 and E60 5 series sedans had optional aerodynamic packages that included strongly influenced M5 styling (for example bumpers). It is not unusual to see "standard" BMW's with "M" badges or ribbons accenting the design."

Currently, the lines without an M version are the 1 Series, the 7 Series, the X3, and the Z4. The Z4 is the only one of the preceding to previously have an M variant (note, the current 1 series has no relation to the original M1).

Hopefully the above will be enough to equip you with some knowledge of what beemers is all about and can explain to friends what BMW actually means.

btw BMW stands for Bavarian Motor Works in english and Bayerische Motoren Werke in german, just incase you are wondering to ask about it to

You're referring to M-Sport aka Clubsport aka ZHP. It's not only just the styling but also the suspension (stiffer spring rate and absorber), ///M front control arms, staggered wheels set-up to give a sportier road holding performance also in certain countries like the US they have a different cam profiles (225 vs 236 hp). As for the clubsport (only for Ci) they're more lighter by using gotten rid some of the sound deadening material.

Just to prove that it's not only just cosmetic lerrrr
