BMW rental in Munich
BMW has been selling "Sheer Driving Pleasure" for over 60 years, and Munich is where it is made. Rear-wheel drive, the famous inline six, the M cars - rent one here, at the source, and drive it on the roads it was developed on: the unrestricted autobahn and the Alpine passes an hour south.

Which BMW to rent in Munich
BMW is the biggest brand in our fleet after Porsche. In Germany it runs from the 3 Series, 4 Series and 2 Series to the X3, X5 and X7, the 7 Series and electric i7, the Z4 roadster, the electric iX3 and the new i3 sedan of the Neue Klasse - and the full M lineup: M2, M240i, M3, M4 (also as a convertible) and M5. The booking form above shows which of them are in Munich for your dates, and you always get the exact model you book - no "or similar".
Munich is BMW's hometown, and it shows: BMW Welt, the BMW Museum and the Four-Cylinder headquarters sit side by side at the Olympic Park, and our second Munich station is right inside BMW Welt - pick up your BMW where the factory hands over new cars to their owners. The new i3 is a Munich car in every sense: built at the plant across the street from BMW Welt and based with us right here. If you want the M experience, the M3, M4 and M5 are the reason most of our US customers come here.
Where to drive a BMW around Munich
Autobahn: the A9 towards Nuremberg and the A8 towards Salzburg have long unrestricted stretches - an M5 at 155 mph is the drive you flew over for.
Alps: the German Alpine Road, Kesselberg, Sudelfeld, Garmisch and Neuschwanstein Castle are about an hour south - M4 convertible territory.
Austria and Italy: Salzburg in 90 minutes, Innsbruck in two hours, Lake Garda in four. Take the BMW across the border for a weekend.
BMW Welt and Museum: the delivery center, the museum and the Four-Cylinder tower are all at the Olympic Park - park your rental outside and spend the afternoon.

I hired an M3 Touring through this outfit and it was a great experience. The guy who handed over the car was really accommodating and helpful. The car was phenomenal and everything in the process was super simple and straight forward. Definitely recommend!
The best prices for cars in Germany. Good communication with customers, the deposit was returned the next day. I recommend👍
Fantastic service that I wish we had in Australia. Will definitely use again when in Germany. Great selection of cars at reasonable prices with great professional service. Had a Cayman GTS this time around for a few days and look forward to trying some of the other fleet vehicles next time!
Such an awesome experience! Rented a BMW M3 and the ride was such an amazing experience. Pick up was in Munich and drop off was in Salzburg and each time was ABSOLUTELY seamless. Will definitely rent again when I'm in Germany!
Great company. Rented a GT4 in Stuttgart, they took the time to walk around the car to document any damages, asked for me to take pictures and videos. Great process, Car was clean and in excellent shape. Super service, could not be happier. I will have to do a trip every year from now on.
