"Driving" The new BMW M5 on the "Wooden Hell"

"Driving" The new BMW M5 on the "Wooden Hell"

Not many will get the opportunity to own the new BMW M5 but at least BMW Miniatures brings the dream closer than ever. With the 1/18 scale highly detailed miniature of the new BMW M5.

Create your own Nordschleife in your living space.
As you drift around the lamp , slide around the armchair and accelerate across the "wooden hell" unleashing pure M Power before braking sharply and avoid hitting the dog.

This BMW M5 will also share you the burden of paying for replacement tyres.

Or else admire your M5 from your desk or turn your work space in to your own personal Nürburgring.

Admire the fully detailed engine compartment full of pure power. Open each one of the passenger doors and see how the interior reflects it's larger 1:1 scale brother from the innovative Head-Up display right down to the M Insignia on the DCT Transmission and instrument dials. Even prod the soft touch of the Silverstone leather interior replicate in soft-touch plastics. Feel the flocked interior and trunk and the sparkle of the Monte Carlo Blue and Silverstone II exterior color paintwork.

*1/43 will be available later.

The BMW M5 (F10) 1/18 Miniature by Paragon Models for BMW Miniaturen.

Available in paintwork used by the actual M5 in two metallic finishes - Monte Carlo blue and Silverstone II . Every inch of every detail is carefully replicated in the miniature from the detailed engine bay right down to the decals of the V8 engine.
In the interior the alloy trim replicates the textured finish of the actual car. And with a fully detailed M-DCT Transmission right down to the details on the switchgear and textured detail of Silverstone interior trim.
A fully detailed chassis shows the meticulous attention to detail that extends to the quad exhausts and stamped "M5" badge on the bootlid.

(The models shown are pre-production prototypes and are not indication of the actual miniature)

Also coming later in 2012. Will be 1/18 and 1/43 miniature BMW M6 Coupe and Cabrio in launch color of San Marino Blue and Sakhir Orange plus another color for each variant.
As will a BMW 6er Gran Coupe in 1/43 and 1/18.

The BMW 3er Sedan will be available in both 1/43 and 1/18 as Mineral Grey , Alpine White and Melbourne Red as the 335i with "Sport" line.

Any word on the 1/43 F10 M5s? Are they included in the models that already arrived at BMW?

Thanks!

Got one from my dealer 2 weeks ago. With the 20% CCA discount it was something like $86 IIRC.
