In Rick's case, however, the //M stands for:

Well... unfortunately... there's no ///M in takedown8's life right now... just a 3.0i. But I won't harp on about it too long...

Ouch.

Don't have the funds for an //M right now. Unlike Rick who used his minivan to make enough money for his //M purchase:

I dunno, mate, but you seem to have a lot of photos of minivans. You sure they're not your vans and you're just using your friends to pose in front of them so that we think it's not yours?

Sly... but not sly enough.

As enfield stated, it stands for Motorsport, however BMW M and BMW Motorsport are separate divisions within the company. Their roots are the same as they used to be the same division, however they split and became what they are today. BMW Motorsport is their racing program while BMW M is the race-inspired production cars.

So the motorsport division never actually works on the ///M cars?

Yeah, but will that ever stop you from getting an ///M?
