Jesus, the amount of boring old fart comments in this thread. You guys must be fun at parties... go buy a Buick and be done with it.
It's a bit of fun for shits and giggles, take it for what it is. |

I think it's a fun idea and I wish them great success in setting a new record. I hope to see the highlights when they're released.

Johan was my lead instructor for 2-day M school.....awesome teacher. He had no problem giving me a "polite" tongue lashing on a couple occasions over the radio. I had the privilege of riding with him on the final hot shoe lap of drift nirvana.....incredible!

Where on public roads do these BMW marketing people think that we can drift without getting arrested and charged with reckless conduct endangering life in the US??
And even if I were to go to track for the sole purpose of drifting, why would I want to choose a 120k+ car over any RWD BMW?

Man 8 hours going in circles really sucks lol. I bet he was begging to burn the fuel faster so he can "wake up" during the refueling.
I wanted to see the damage when both rubbed each other =[ Doing cool stuff like this every now and then makes me jelly of their jobs

Gosh, it is marketing and the advert is good. Imo, it shows that the M5 is a well balanced car, so go take a rest.

Toyota did it with a Toyota 86 last year. Six hours to reach 102.5 miles of drifting. It's currently the only RWD car they have.
I dunno if Toyota did anything like use a fuel cell (too lazy to look it up) in the 86 but I'm sure BMW could've just used a diesel 3-series to get insane miles. That'd be hella boring though.

I'm sure it's the same boringness as driving M5 drifting for 8 hours. Lol I'm not even sure why the need to reclaim the record title. Will it boost their sales somehow? |

Great car control, very impressive. Also got to see the left in the contacts! Not real world, fine. If you look at the Guinness World Records most of them aren't!
I would take either car
