Some may say that video game competitions are for geeks. However, something tells us that this particular competition from the makers of the Forza Motorsport racing game will attract a huge crowd, given that the winner gets to own a…brand-new BMW M5!
It sounds too good to be true: a competition giving away a 560HP twin-turbocharged saloon that can complete the 0-100 km/h (0-62 mph) in 4.4 seconds?
Yet that is exactly what is being provided as a prize on the Limited Edition Forza Motorsport 4 racing simulation game for the Microsoft Xbox 360 console that features the M5 on its cover.
Starting from Friday, October 14, members of the Xbox Live community, as well as visitors to selected BMW branches, the BMW showroom in Berlin and the BMW Welt in Munich, can register to enter the BMW M5 Forza Cup competition.
The 16 fastest virtual racers will compete in the M5 Forza Cup final that will take place on November 26 at the BMW Welt. And, like we said before, the winner will take home a ring of power a real M5. Not bad at all.
