    BMW Ring-Taxi

    BMW Ring-Taxi at the Nurburgring





    The original pic was taken in GT4 at the Nurburgring, and I've modified it into the BMW Ring-Taxi!

    Also included is High-Res (1320*1020) version.
    Feeback appreciated.

    to drive people around the ring so they can experence it without wrecking their cars.
    I'm dropping out to create a company that starts with motorcycles, then cars, and forty years later signs a legendary Brazilian driver who has a public and expensive feud with his French teammate.

    Thanks everyone, I'm really pleased with how it came out as well.
    coolieman1220 - That M5 is completely stock, and I wasn't going flat out, rather trying to take nice photos, but I got about 8 minutes, give or take a few seconds each lap.
    Jakg - Do you mean in the original pic? Because the thing next to the rear wheel in the original is actually another car (Mitsu HSR Concept) peeking out from behind the M5, but I chopped it out for the final.

    I knew of a M5 ring taxi but I never knew what it looked like. I went to that site on the picture and it looked identical! Great work!
