The BMW M5 Ring Taxi makes a comeback at the famous Nürburgring Nordschleife.
Back in June 2011, BMWBLOG team attended the M Festival at the 24 Hr of Nurburgring and we had the opportunity to see for the first time the next generation F10 M5 Ring Taxi. TheMonte Carlo blue painted M5 was sporting the usual Ring Taxi decals and was driven by the famous German driver Claudia Hürtgen.
Since 1986, the BMW Ring Taxi thrilled more than 90,000 passengers at the famous Nürburgring Nordschleife. The newest M5 Ring Taxi was spotted in an Alpine White paint and powered by the high-revving 4.4-litre V8 engine with M TwinPower Turbo package and its 560 hp at 6,000 – 7,000 rpm.
The car features the M Drivers package that brings the top speed to 190 mph.
