The Euro Rental

I think it'll handle a lot better in Nurburg. I'm super excited for September.

im sorry, but why is this even a debate within your head?! M3!
Your right. IDK what I'm thinking. Only considered the X6M because it's different.

M3 hands down. You have an opportunity to drive the flagship BMW vehicle, or an ugly, useless POS that disgraces the badge it wears on the hood and trunk. I hate the fact that BMW is watering down the //M badge by making these stupid souped up SUVs. After owning 2 M3s and an M5, I find it terribly disappointing that BMW stooped to this level
Man you crazy?! Why not have a v8 twinturbo suv to give amg a run for their money!?
I mean yeah the M3 is sick, but have you ever driven an X6?? I've actually been in a X6M in Bulgaria a few months ago, it was nuts. I absolutely loved it, if I was 40 and wanted an SUV, that would be first choice over any thing.

You might want to be sure the rental company allows you to take the car on the ring. Most don't allow it.
I also would suggest you take your time on the ring, it's obviously a hard track, even harder in a vehicle you're not familiar with (or too much power)...
FWIW, I lived in Germany for 3 1/2 years and have been on the ring. Let me know if you have any questions.

Thats it right there, I think a sports car/vehicle should not be built with 40 year old men in mind. It should be a viciously fast, slightly uncomfortable machine built to destroy! I just refuse to believe that the X6M deserves an M badge, its a useless SUV.. i've only sat in one, and that was enough for me to know I would NEVER, EVER, own one. However, i do like the X5, because it does exactly what its supposed to do very well; transport people from A to B in comfort, while providing space to fit stuff in.

You think BMW builds their SUV's especially X5Ms and X6Ms with our age group in mind lol?

At forty i don't think I'll be to old at heart, My dad at 55 has done burn outs and doughnuts in my old Ms and my brothers toys lol... But at 40 i think ill be more stable in my life to afford something like that.. make sence? So what does a man do that wants an SUV at mid-life bc he has a kid and more stuff going on, but he doesn't want to give up on all performance or the M motorsport he grew up on.. buys a X5-6M!!!! lol this will be a big argument that wont end and since your my friend ill drop it.. but i think i win..

But what about people who need four doors and ground clearance? Maybe an M5 could work, but I think its fair to make an X_M to compete with AMG.

But to the OP: M3 for sure

I have experiance on tracks. I've driven an E46 M3 at The Autobuhn country club in Joliet, Ill. I know the E90 will be a big difference. I'm looking forward to the challange on the ring. I'll take it slow the first time and I'm usally a quick learner...... Forza 3 is my testing grounds till race day haha. If they don't want me to take it on a track I guess I just shouldn't crash it...
No M1's for rent. checked one out at the Chicago Auto Show. Sitting in the driver seat of that beast feels amazing. The price tag looks better then the M3's too!

Does the Ring offer rental cars? I know you can catch rides with drivers, but if they rented cars that'd be sick!
That would be sick. I doubt they rent cars to race. To much of a risk.
Its all good, everyone has diff opinions, I just really dislike the SUV range getting an M badge, not so much the power.
