Nice! They do rent some nice cars there...

Also, Nurburgring and Spa Francorchamps. If they have M2s, I might be interested. Sixt does, but they also have an A45 AMG for the same price and splitting a rental into two would be too expensive, so I'd have to pick one or the other and I've wanted to drive the Merc for a while. But if I could take an M2 for a spin for a couple of hours, it would be a nice bonus.
The M2 would be a pocket rocket, the A45 is no doubt still awesome!

Awesome! When I was in Munich in 2010 the reason was to pick up my 335xi I did a European Delivery. Needless to say I drove around EU! And I did the Nürburgring! God that was intoxicating!

EDIT: looks like they don't have an M2 - just an M235i and an M135i (sadly, both automatics). Not worth it for 135 Euro/3 hours when, if I really want to drive an M2, I can just book a second Sixt car for less than that for an entire day. Still, it's a neat option I didn't know about.I've been.
Decisions decisions!

Seems they have more and more automatics, too many tourist that doesn't know how to drive standard and killing the transmission or clutch lol.

Not a huge fan, tbh. Felt more like a traditional tourist trap to me.
Definitely a tourist trap! LOL I even went there! I'm Canadian but my gf is German

Noted, but not really my thing
.

Same here but if you're in Salzburg why not , ok gf wanted to check it out lol.
