The 2012 BMW M: Turo alternative
Turo alternative: the 2012 BMW M. Here is the car in plain words, and how renting one from CarmaCars works. You choose the car; a person confirms it and sends the price. Every car has its own page with its rates and calendar.
Reading the spec sheet
Its 4.0L 8-cylinder drives through a 6-speed manual. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
Rated at 14.7 L/100 km combined, it needs around 44 litres for a 300 km round trip. At our price setting, 1,000 km costs about $257.30.
Practical details
Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. The length is 4.91 m. Check the size of a tight parking spot. Luggage space is rated at 311 litres: about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.
Who the M suits
It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.
In our fleet
There is no exact match in our fleet today. Request it and we search for one, or take a similar car. Similar cars are listed below if you need one now. A request for your dates gets you an offer from a person. Pick it up from us for free, or have it brought to you.
What happens when you ask for a car
Booking starts online: pick the car, set the times, and send the request at no cost. Back comes an offer you can read at your own pace, with every charge on it. The car is yours for those dates once you approve and pay the offer.
Each car page lists what is included and what costs extra. Stay as long as you need: up to 365 days a booking, then renew. Leave at least 2 hours between your request and the pickup.
What to bring
Drivers from 18 up, with an Ontario G2 or G licence, are welcome. A daily young driver fee applies to drivers under 26, with no maximum age. A card in the driver's own name is required at the handover.
Liability to other people is included in every rate. For the car itself, pick your own policy (OPCF 27), a card with rental car benefits, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. The deposit is never taken when you book; it comes about 1 hour before pickup. Each extra driver is checked the same way and signs the rental agreement.
