Pretty vague article...anyone know more?

BMW Ring Taxi End Of Life? - GTSPIRIT.COM

 

[Diny]

Well, yes. With the increasing size of the M5, it'll now be called Ring Bus.

 

[2K]

Ring-Bus = F10 M5?

Do want!

Probably related to this f*ck up

Save The Nurburgring!

Look out for an add in the classifieds, "light use and low mileage, one careful lady owner"

I think i read somewhere in an interview with her that she said that the ring taxi is not sold. Once it's retired it goes to the crusher. Hope I'm not remembering the wrong interview...

I've seen the same interview re: crushing, but this is article reads like Ring Taxi, the company, has stopped operations at the Ring. It is also intimated that the tracks demise is the cause. Also, Sabine could be taking advantage of her fame and seeking other opportunities. She certainly deserves it.

Sucks all around for us though.

Nope the BMW Ring taxi will be back in the form of an M3 for now. Sabine not so much. The e60 M5 is just too dated. BMW will likely put the F10 M5 in 2012.

Confirmed: BMW Ring-Taxi Lives On... as an M3! - BMW M3 Forum (E90 E92)

I read somewhere recently that she is rumored to possibly be the new "Stig". Stigette?

Nah.. she thinks Clarkson is a tool.*


* - who doesn't?

Sabine will be giving Ring tours in the Team Frikadeli 911 GT3 now. $730 per lap.

Long live the Ring Taxi!

[sirtophamhat]

What does that work out to, $100 per minute?

 

[joeywx]

F-that! Wayyy overpriced. I'd rather just do laps myself and find Sabine for a quick photo. Jeez most expensive escort ever ahhaa

[OJwerks]

has anyone actually seen the videos of sabine driving that gt3 around the track ??? pfff... $730?? Id pay for 2 laps. thats the ride of the lifetime.

M3 is a better car for the 'ring anyway - M5's, E60/F10 are fat and fatter tanks, even the all time perfect M5 (the E39 ) is too heavy for it...

Mark.... don´t think this crowd is ready for this..... :haha:

 

[vantaam5]

What an awesome combination for Ring Taxi rides....Sabine and a GT3RS...

This can not get much better!

 

[M5 Tracktool]

The Porsche GT3 RSR is a perfect car for the ring. Built by manthey racing.
The combination with Sabine is really perfect, but I think, this is to much money.

Zakspeed takes for a ride with the Viper GT3 240Euro


You can find a lot of good guys with fast cars to pick you up for 1 round.
Sometimes I get request from guys, to take a ride with me, for 1 round on the ring.

 

[Blue Thunder]

Agreed.

Although a lap with Sabine in the E60 M5 was entertaining, my favorite passenger lap
is probably with a finnish guy in a Corvette Z06, now that was interesting at €0 !!!! h:
