BMW F10 M5 Police Car (In Case You Missed It)

BMW F10 M5 Police Car (In Case You Missed It)

COMMENTS

In case you missed it in the large photo set from our first F10 M5 european delivery day thread, here are the first looks at a one-off F10 M5 Polizei car by BMW.

Based on the US spec F10 M5, this M5 police car is a show car only and not intended for actual police use. It will be on display at the Welt until Thursday.

BMW does make several models available for the police (including 3 series, 5 series and X5), as well as security vehicles.

See BMW Authority Vehicles line: http://www.bmw-authority-vehicles.co...s_vehicles/en/

Not many dirtbags getting away from that patrol car if it was really being put on the streets. Imagine the taxes of the place where the police have the budget to buy M5's!!

That's normal in Germany. Has nothing to do with Tax because Police is paid by government.
There are also a lot of Porsche Carrera 4s police cars on the road.

But of course it's more an advertising ;-)

Short clip of the M5 police car taking a lap around the delivery floor, taken by M5POST member hsiaochinsan who was there picking up his F10 M5.

Limits the choice of getaway cars if that is what the cops drive...

I wonder why they painted it in the old livery instead of the new Blue/Silver scheme?

It's odd it has the amber reflectors on the front bumper. I thought that was purely a USA thing.

The police car escorts each new car around the loop and down the exit. Pretty cool, I drove behind it but then pulled back in and handed back the key.
