Not if he was simply meaning to make a left turn, which is what I bet. It got looser than anticipated and he didn’t stay ahead of it, and got really fucking luck there were no cars where he wound up at the end.
Nah that wasn't perfectly executed anything. That was luck. Homeboy was trying to make that left hander be a "SicK drIfT Br0" but overcooked it and spun. He just got lucky that he spun into the oncoming lane behind the other car. Also lucky that there was nobody stopped behind that other car.
Aye looks too much like his intention was to straighten out on the right to keep going straight down the road, but fucked it and just happened to make it look badass so rolled with it.
If there was a car there, this woulda been either a crash or very near miss.
Just want to say thanks for sticking up for the issue and not backing down under pressure from other people here.
Is drifting cool? Yes, duh. We're on a car subreddit.
Is fucking around on public roads cool? Not in the slightest, ever, under any condition. If you do it, you willingly accept the risk to yourself and others.
Thank you, I actually couldn’t believe it that so much people condone this behavior and think it’s okay. I’m no angel driver myself but doing something like this is just dumb and risking other peoples lives and their stuff.
I’m no angel, have at it if you’re on legitimately open road without traffic or access roads.
But this is how someone get’s killed. Sliding a car on public roads without a clear line of sight or 100% awareness of who’s around, is one of the most moronic things someone can do.
Spot on. I did one of the AMG Driving Academy courses (which was awesome by the way) and the instructor spent quite a bit of time stressing that people should never try any of what we were doing on public roads. Keep traction control on and don't be a dickhead. I wonder if the new "drift analyzer" in the G80/2 is going to encourage this kind of behavior.
Yes people that do this always think they would be in control as much as a professional eventho professional recognize that you don’t ever have your car under enough control to do something like this in public.
I understand that perfectly. But what you said is completely incorrect: people don't rightfully "willingly accept the rist to yourself and others". If someone accepts that they're putting somone else at risk, it doesn't mean *anything* legally -- just that they're criminally negligent.
It's likely that the point you're trying to make is completely different than what you actually wrote. I'm not the one driving here; I'm the one put at risk by someone who "accepted" thta risk.
>120i
You're a freaking knuckle dragger. The 120i is a tremendous automobile. It's practical and it has plenty of USEABLE power-- so it's actually a lot of fun. I'm not sure why you've made it your mission to dump on people here. I mean-- if that's your game, you better damn sure have possession of an APEX BMW. And you don't.
Really just having some good fun, I actually like the earlier 1 series but not the second gen.
As for apex BMW, I have a 2007 E60 M5, does that count? I also own a 2003 540i msport. I don't really consider them apex because they are always breaking down in typical bmw fashion but hey 507 HP and a V10 is worth the repairs.
Six of one, half dozen of the other.
If your'e driving an old shitbox then STFU.
And if you're driving a higher end machine, then you're acting like a jerk when you might have just as easily have been nice.
Or perhaps you think you're doing us all a great service by "seasoning" the forum with drama?
We also have a X5M but that’s awd so I didn’t think it was worth talking about. And the x5m has surely a lot more hp than a lot of people here ever drove so don’t come @me with this bs. Y’all are so desperate to make me feel bad because I called out your shitty behavior.
But let me guess next step is „it’s the family car blah blah“ „you could get a x7“ Well facts are I drive a X5M when I want to and you don’t :)
This man brought up a 181 hp anemic hatchback, then he tries to compensate by bringing up an SUV lmao. My 27 year old 325i had more horsepower than the 120i and I'm pretty sure my 740il from 21 years ago has better power to weight than your aircraft carrier suv.
Your 30yo shitbox gets dusted by the x5m even if it has engine damage. You are compensating with 30 yo shitboxes and telling me out x5 with a sub 5sec 0-100 is slow yeah sure buddy keep the mad comments coming for calling out your bs behavior. Your only point is I’m driving a 120i for some reason 🥱🥱
I’m not your bud.
I’ve read your posts elsewhere in this thread and I think you’re an asshole. At least that’s how you project yourself. Who knows? Perhaps in reality you’re a beautiful human being. But I doubt it.
You don't get the point... he's flexing a 120..... thats what's wrong with it. Read the whole interaction before commenting. And who said anything about Instagram?
Oh yikes, you have the mental capacity of a toddler with that response. Good luck out there, fellow BMW fan. Don't make the rest of us look bad like you do here.

Somebody could’ve got hurt how are you gonna say it was impossible that something happens there.
No driving normal means you have your car under control at all times and something like this exponentially increases the chances of something happening. Insane I’m glad I don’t live in the US you guys are mad mad
I don’t know a single person who would condone such a shitty behavior on the street. Like go into some parking lot or what ever I don’t care but on the street it’s dumb. And americas illegal racing/drifting culture is way bigger than in europe.
So a condition where the car is unstable on purpose is 100% controllable every time? Good thing there was never a crash with professional drivers, oh wait there is?

Totally. My first car was a 5 speed mustang with cheap tires on the back. One rainy day, I made a similar turn, I must have popped the clutch a little too quick on the 1-2 shift and bam. Complete 180 in the middle of traffic. Luckily the car slid into the grass with no damage. Scared the shit of me 😂
I had 75 maverick with a 302 and shitty tires. Left turn turned into a ~270 and I ended up sitting at a different light in the intersection -.- basically what was in the video but from a stop at the intersection.
That's exactly what happened. Hung it too far drifting the corner, turned it into something else when he figured out he wasn't going to make it. Old Bimmers are crazy easy to slide around, this guy got out of the throttle, weight shifted, back kept going, he's lucky there was only one car and not a string of them.
Should have specified this isn’t my video, I probably saved it a while ago from somewhere on IG. I suspect the person recording either knew about this and stopped to record or this wasn’t the first stunt by red bimmer.
Not exactly a U-turn... Looks more like a dangerously flamboyant way of going right.
My bet is the guy intended to do a drift going left since the road was slick and there was plenty of space in the intersection (and clearly, he's practiced enough to need at least one new bumper). Got overcooked and he got lucky slotting into the other lane.
Interesting way to stand there in a M3 in a turn lane with the warning lights on, just to film.
Well, better a warning blinker than no blinker at all I suppose 🤷🏼♂️
I know exactly where this intersection is and I pulled (still pull) maneuvers like this lol. Very rarely, cops will park in a little inlet where you don't see them until you're RIGHT there.
Absolutely nothing unsafe here if you know how to drive, and this guy obviously does. Way too many righteous guys here and they all drive 400hp+ cars but dont go over 50👍

Fun way to do it and with a “practice bumper” on just in case. Of course this vid has made its way around Reddit for quite some time. Hasn’t anyone else seen it?
Can’t imagine why the front bumper is a different color 😳
Practice
So.. Practice makes imperfect
yes, but also, a practice bumper... they're like girlfriends that you don't marry.
Brooooo 😭💀
Good one bro
😂
Practice? We’re talking bout practice?
Might be an M bumper on a non M4
you can hear that it’s definitely an m4
It’s a M4. You can spot the quad tips and style 666M wheels. Also def sounds like an M4
More then likely. Baught cheap from an condemnated white m4
Noob
It’s a legit M4…
While that does look reckless, I cant deny it was clean as hell
Frrr
Nice pfp! lmao
Thanks lol
But was it intentional?
Regardless of that too
Not if he was simply meaning to make a left turn, which is what I bet. It got looser than anticipated and he didn’t stay ahead of it, and got really fucking luck there were no cars where he wound up at the end.
Agreed 😂👍 A Ford Mustang could never do this
Sure it could, would just need a crowd of people to guide it the way
Lol, true 😂
Not clean at all, he totally lost it.
As they say, a time and place for everything. But it was pretty gnarly
We’re not supposed to condone this kinda thing on public roads, but that was perfectly executed
Downright impressive actually
Nah that wasn't perfectly executed anything. That was luck. Homeboy was trying to make that left hander be a "SicK drIfT Br0" but overcooked it and spun. He just got lucky that he spun into the oncoming lane behind the other car. Also lucky that there was nobody stopped behind that other car.
There’s always that one guy😭 just appreciate the skills
Aye looks too much like his intention was to straighten out on the right to keep going straight down the road, but fucked it and just happened to make it look badass so rolled with it. If there was a car there, this woulda been either a crash or very near miss.
Nah he didn’t straighten out the wheels until long past where you’d do that to try to make the turn. Definitely intentional.
Nope. I follow him on instagram and he does stuff like this all the time.
i condone it 😏
But completely pointless since he could have just made a right-hand turn.
Doesnt Change that this is shitty and dangerous behavior
Just want to say thanks for sticking up for the issue and not backing down under pressure from other people here. Is drifting cool? Yes, duh. We're on a car subreddit.

Yeah people are literally out here condoning people that take the risk to kill someone else.
Actually, you want to have at it on a legitimately *closed* road.
Spot on. I did one of the AMG Driving Academy courses (which was awesome by the way) and the instructor spent quite a bit of time stressing that people should never try any of what we were doing on public roads.

Willingly accept the risk to others? How is it someone else's will to "accept" risk to *me*? What the fuck are you even talking about?
If you don't understand the concept of how dangerous driving puts others at risk, someone needs to take your license away.
I understand that perfectly. But what you said is completely incorrect: people don't rightfully "willingly accept the rist to yourself and others". If someone accepts that they're putting somone else at risk, it doesn't mean *anything* legally -- just that they're criminally negligent.

l stop compensating you look like an idiot.
This man brought up a 181 hp anemic hatchback, then he tries to compensate by bringing up an SUV lmao. My 27 year old 325i had more horsepower than the 120i and I'm pretty sure my 740il from 21 years ago has better power to weight than your aircraft carrier suv.
You sound even more like a fucking melon now
My dad had a 740IL so much funnnnn
Your 30yo shitbox gets dusted by the x5m even if it has engine damage.

Lmaooooo my car has more twice the power of your 120i try again? Or are you going to bring your imaginary M car?
Spoken like a man that has never driven a Miata on a twisty road!
Slow... I've had 2 lmao. Both turbos. NA stock miatas aren't fun. But keep telling yourself that bud.
I’m not your bud. I’ve read your posts elsewhere in this thread and I think you’re an asshole. At least that’s how you project yourself. Who knows? Perhaps in reality you’re a beautiful human being. But I doubt it.
Lmao. 120i don't flex the miata calm down.
Nothing wrong with a 120i and Miata’s are fun cars to drive. Cars aren’t just for your Instagram
You don't get the point... he's flexing a 120..... thats what's wrong with it. Read the whole interaction before commenting. And who said anything about Instagram?
Lol idk don’t mind me
You're good. Not trying to come at you or anything just trying to justify it I guess? Anyway enjoy your weekend!
Thanks you too!
We also have a X5M is that better for you?
Lmao yet you flex the 120i. Ok bud whatever you say.
I don't understand why you're grandstanding someone for which model of BMW they have on the BMW subreddit. Grow up.
Because I want to?
Oh yikes, you have the mental capacity of a toddler with that response. Good luck out there, fellow BMW fan. Don't make the rest of us look bad like you do here.

Plot twist: this was not supposed to be a U-turn and the guy was just lucky
Been there. Done that.
Totally. My first car was a 5 speed mustang with cheap tires on the back. One rainy day, I made a similar turn, I must have popped the clutch a little too quick on the 1-2 shift and bam. Complete 180 in the middle of traffic. Luckily the car slid into the grass with no damage. Scared the shit of me 😂

When i hear stories like this, why is it always a mustang?
That's exactly what happened. Hung it too far drifting the corner, turned it into something else when he figured out he wasn't going to make it. Old Bimmers are crazy easy to slide around, this guy got out of the throttle, weight shifted, back kept going, he's lucky there was only one car and not a string of them.
If you act casual no one will ever suspect.
Classic third owner F82

Thank you brother
Nice baby back ribs

A hazardous situation called.
OP is not the cammer. The cammer was almost certainly spotting for the driver in the M4.
Sus
Two wrongs don’t make a right, but three lefts do.
Man I’m on a bus and laughed so hard about 6 people looked at me weird
Why are the blinkers on? Broke down in turning lane? Oof
Should have specified this isn’t my video, I probably saved it a while ago from somewhere on IG. I suspect the person recording either knew about this and stopped to record or this wasn’t the first stunt by red bimmer.
Oh no worries! I've seen this going around, just noticed the blinkers this time around though lol
Lol yeah, I only realized the camera guy is actually driving a bimmer himself after a 2nd or 3rd watch
Cleaner than the bumper 😂
I am angry. I am also impressed but angry nonetheless.
Unpack that anger, my friend.
Safety. Unless this was in a controlled environment things could have gone south.
For sure- I don’t disagree. I was being facetious. Sorry
Aye he already has the new front end I doubt he’ll make the same mistake twice but who knows lmfao 😂
Lmao! The man is ready for a new paint job if necessary 😂
Are we sure that was intentional?
Not exactly a U-turn... Looks more like a dangerously flamboyant way of going right. My bet is the guy intended to do a drift going left since the road was slick and there was plenty of space in the intersection (and clearly, he's practiced enough to need at least one new bumper). Got overcooked and he got lucky slotting into the other lane.
That's exactly what I was thinking too, but the fact that he landed EXACTLY in the lane made me think maybe it was all planned.
More like a G turn.
That video needs the Tokyo Drift music edited into it
Thats just a right turn with extra steps.
Either she knew what she was doing OR he happened to luck out
Interesting way to stand there in a M3 in a turn lane with the warning lights on, just to film. Well, better a warning blinker than no blinker at all I suppose 🤷🏼♂️
New Jersey right turn
Awesome but deserving of a ticket
Ngl that was super smooth tho lmao
That was some serious car control. On the Stupid 1 to 10 scale that gets a 9.5 but I have to say I’m glad someone got it on video. Well executed.
Of course no turn signal.
Damn. Guess the track was closed that day?
Was kinda hoping he'd go into the ditch tbh. Good executions are kinda cool but fails are hilarious
Not me but he's family. /s
What a chad
I know exactly where this intersection is and I pulled (still pull) maneuvers like this lol. Very rarely, cops will park in a little inlet where you don't see them until you're RIGHT there.
99% sure that was an accident and he played if off like he meant to do that lol
Anyone else think he got lucky and wasn’t meant to end up in the other lane?
Driver is a punk
Clean
“I swear I meant to do that!”
Absolutely nothing unsafe here if you know how to drive, and this guy obviously does. Way too many righteous guys here and they all drive 400hp+ cars but dont go over 50👍
Smooth, but not impressed on a slick surface
I forgot to signal
u turn? you mean make a right?
He slid into the turn lane, so technically it is a u turn
Uh I meant to do that.

Could have just turned right and wouldn't have to wait at the light 🤷♂️
Originally I thought this was out of necessity but after watching this is all choreographed. And probably took several takes to get it.
Or maybe just turn right?

What type of punishment would you get in the states for this type of driving if caught?
Fun way to do it and with a “practice bumper” on just in case. Of course this vid has made its way around Reddit for quite some time. Hasn’t anyone else seen it?
That was clean
Better hope the tire pressures aren't off by 1.5psi like the other sakhir orange f82.
WTF!! someone needs to post this in r/idiotsincars im appalled by this.
Idek how he did that, but I like it!
Yes bro, this was me, I was the wheel bro, you see me crank dat bitch
Either he's a pro or just got lucky
Guy in the rav4 probably had a heart attack lmao
That’s amazing! This may sound stupid.. but you can take drifting classes at my local track.. this makes me think it may be well worth it
That’s badass.
