NSL I was under the impression that you did not drive the M6, but apparently it seems you drove a lot more than the M6. Out if curiousity, what cars on the line up of BMW have this package included? (already asked the question)

Thanks for sharing Mark. Sounds like you had a blast!

Too bad they didn't let you tour the plant or check out the new X5.... maybe next time

Yeah, thanks for the story! It'll probably be something I'll never get to do. Ah well.

We used M3s for the rat race (i won) and skid pad. We did some timed laps with Z4 M roadsters (I won that too). We also got to mess around for a couple laps in M5s and M6s. Did the instrutors take you for a lap in M3s at the end of the day? They spent more time burning out and powersliding than going straight. It was awesome.
We didn't do laps on M3s, we spent all day on the 6 Series. Only time we did use other cars was for the performance driving tests. We drove the Z4, Z4 M, 330i, M5, M6, and 760Li.

As far as I know this is only included in their more exclusive cars, 6 Series, M6, and M5. Not sure if they have this for other models but they do have other courses at the driving school, like the M School, Advanced M School, etc (you have to pay for them, of course).

They didn't show us any X5s. The picture I posted was a close as I could get to those two we saw passing by (and still with some tape on them).
