Renting BMW M5 (F10) from BMW On Demand

None of the major car rental companies in Germany currently offers new BMW M5 (F10) in their fleet. However if you are going to Munich Germany (BMW Headquarters) you can rent BMW M5 along with other exciting BMW models like M3, 6-series Coupe / Cabrio, Z4 35i, 550i (F10), 335i Cabrio, 335i Coupe, 135i Cabrio, 135 Coupe, X5 M, X6 M. These cars can be rented from BMW Welt as part of BMW On Demand program. BMW On Demand is BMW’s Driving experience program and is offered exclusively at BMW Welt (Munich Germany).

How it works.
You can only book one month in advance
Minimum booking is one hour. 3 hour booking gives you daytime rental from 09:00 (9AM) to 17:00 (5PM) or nightime from 17:00 (5PM) to 09:00 (9AM) next day.
One hour rental comes with 150km per paid hour. Daytime rental (3 paid hours) or Nightime rental (3 paid hours) comes with 450km. Whole day rental (24 hours) is charged 6 hours and comes with 900 km.
Rental terms and conditions state that maximum rental time is 24 hours but you seem to be able to book longer periods – I dont know how they will handle these situations. But to rent for longer periods it probably makes more sense to rent from Sixt (M3 from 99 eur per day).

Example prices

M5 09:00 (9AM) to 17:00 (5PM) costs 210 eur and comes with 450 km’s. (see example below)

Europcar Germany added Nissan 370Z to their summer fleet 2012

Last time when Europcar Germany had anything exciting in their fleet was back in 2007 when Audi A5 Coupe was introduced. Europcar was 2007 first car rental company in Germany to offer A5 in their fleet but after that I dont recall them having anything special in their fleets. Until now. For summer 2012 Europcar Germany has added Nissan 370Z to their fleet. Rates start 179 eur / weekend (fri 12:00 – mon 09:00) including 900km. Extra km’s are 0.38 eur / km. Cars can be booked from now until 30.9.2012.
