BMW has an M5 taxi that can really take you for a ride.

The BMW Ring-Taxi offers a chance to experience the notorious Green Hell - that is a trip around the Nürburgring's Nordschleife track, one of the longest tracks in the world at 20 km.

Well, one may want to have someone else do the driving to make some of those pretty trick curves and bends on the Green Hell. There are a total of 73 of them.

But how exactly do you hail this BMW M5 Ring-Taxi? Is there a number to call or can you just flag him down as he zips by you?

Enjoy the video.

Just looked, there are 181 corners at the Nurburgring. Is the Green Hell supposed to be a shortened segment of the track?

i believe "green hell" is a reference to the nordschleife or "north slope." the nurburgring is the aggregate, i believe, someone correct me if i'm wrong.

green hell is simply the nickname given to the track by sir jackie stewart

Dam I wish that Australia would have taxis like that. Or even at least something like a FPV GT-P or HSV GTS. But noooooo, instead we have to put up with crummy little hyrbid cars like the Toyota Prius or a base-model Falcon. Ergh, so much for 21st century living.
