2012 BMW M5 Nurburgring testing footage

Like a peeping Tom watches over the hot girl next door, you can always count on the car paparazzi to capture footage of the latest road and tract tests for upcoming vehicles. The 2012 BMW M5 was spied at Nurburgring as usual, doing some last minute tests and runs before being let out into production. Thanks to the 600 horsepower twin turbo V8 under the hood, this little bimmer that could totally can. Zipping through the corners with the precision and handling one would expect from BMW, it appears that the 2012 BMW M5 is far from disappointment.

BMW has built it's name upon performance, luxury, and bringing that race car feeling to an everyday road car with an F10 chassis and possible use of KERS. It's not easy being the best, but BMW sure does it well. Take a look at BMW's racing heritage, and you'll see that the road cars are not far from the cars used for racing. By the looks of this 2012 BMW M5, it appears that all you need to convert the new M5 into a race car is a few driving lessons. Some say mod the car, others insist upon modifying the driver. With the new M5, anything is possible! Just look at how it rips those corners man, mind blowing. That is one hot sedan.
