Here’s How You Drift A Defective M3

soniczoom5 · 12-03-2014, 08:44 PM

https://autos.yahoo.com/news/drift-d...170016901.html

Question: What’s the best way to spend your last day with a “lemon-law,” 414-horsepower BMW M3 Competition Package? Answer: Kill its tires with a trained driver behind the wheel.

So, we set forth to the canyons of Malibu to film this M3 driver ripping off some quick power slides on a road with spotters at the top and bottom. You know, for safety. Because these are relatively harrowing canyons, the driver didn’t pull any massive smokey drifts. But you can still see this wonderful display of car control as he catches it perfectly on each exit.

Oh, and in case you were wondering, he turned in the broken M3 for a brand new M5.

This is a joke, right? Is the driver trained at tank-slapping?

Yeah if this was truly tank slapping he would've "high sided" and been done. This display of drifting was poor at best by this "trained driver"

Almost looked accidental. I'm all for any M3 vido, but this is not flattering to anyone or anything.

Trained Driver? Where was he / she trained? DMV? Dafaq...

I want my minute back

jimk · 12-03-2014, 11:55 PM

It doesn't look like a lemon to me. Is that the stock exhaust? It sounded pretty good for stock.

Who is the owner that let this "trained driver" drive his m3? Double fails

Where was the drift at? All i seen was the backend sliding from coming out of the corner!

Stupid thread is stupid.

lve2xlr8 · 12-04-2014, 01:36 AM

Wow. You know if he would have totaled it, he wouldn't have gotten anything back from the lemon case. Stupid

What a joke!

Maybe you need to look up the definition of Drifting.... And what "catching it perfectly" means
This was more insulting than anything

You are swapping out parts designed by some of the top engineers in the world because some guys sponsored by a company told you it's "better??" But when you ask the same guy about tracking, "oh no, I have a kid now" or "I just detailed my car." or "i just got new tires."
