Hey guys, I’ve been considering getting myself an M5, and i just wanted to ask if anyone has experience with towing cars with it. Has anyone here done it before and does it ruin the suspension? I’m asking since id like to tow my M2 CS to tracks such as the Nurburgring, which are quite far away from me. Thanks.

From a quick search it looks like the towing capacity is 750KG unbraked and 2,000KG braked.
Don’t take it for gospel, I would definitely read through the manual to confirm.

You're in Europe, you should know what people tow with their cars lol a little vw passat towing a giant boat or camper. Should you? Probably not, can you? Most definitely.
