Released in 2005 as part of their Sauber Formula One program, and in production until 2010, the M5 is BMW’s high performance version of their popular 5 Series model, and was also the first of their 5 Series models to be powered on a 5 litre V10 engine.
This particular model comes in Coupe, Sedan and Wagon specifications, but it’s the Coupe model we offer to book for driving experience days here on TrackDays. It’s built on an adapted version of the 5 Series chassis, and utilises a lot of the same technology and engineering.
The V10 engine packs out an impressive 500 bhp, with achievable top speeds of 155 mph, accelerating from 0 - 60 mph in 4.7 seconds and 0 - 100 mph in 7.8 seconds, meaning this is one ride you’ll remember for years to come.
