Pretty useless test by Autocar, I'd like to see them drift the M5 on a track instead

TheBingoBalls · 12-26-2011, 03:11 PM

LOL smiles all around man. This thing is just a machine, you can't say anything bad about it! Though it would be nice if they did it around a track instead of open area, we all know any M car can do that!

+1 more like "will it do doughnuts?"

Karlkarlsson · 12-26-2011, 03:44 PM

indeed pretty useless tire burning from a weighty uk man ;-)

Diver · 12-26-2011, 03:51 PM

Sick.

Woah, I hope we're not hating on one of Bavarian's biggest fans.

More BMW love from Steve:

bimmerJP · 12-26-2011, 04:59 PM

Oh no... If you don't want the tires then just give them to me

Pretty stupid video.

Look, if you buy the GTI and see a 335, you'll say I wish! But if you buy a 335 and see a GTI, you won't think I wish! Someone said that to me and never looked back....

Wait, I didn't catch that the first four times...slow down, and say it once more.

I lost you at "Look"...

JulieDriving · 12-27-2011, 01:05 AM

Pretty useless but I like Steve Sutcliffe.

Oh. And M5 looks good. Oh how I like the "DNA" of M cars...

NTTY · 12-27-2011, 02:14 AM

Pretty useless. Sounds like "I'm completely bored, what can I do today? Oh yes, let's take the M5, burn tires, and then post on youtube. That will be one hour of fun and make my day".

Well, why not, indeed...

And we learned that a 560HP RWD with a proper LSD can drift very well. Wow...

Bluesummer · 12-27-2011, 03:19 AM

I will take the man's job

richb811 · 12-27-2011, 09:14 AM

An interesting take on Will It Blend... I like it!

M-Power111 · 12-27-2011, 11:15 AM

thats nice, still not impressed with drifting. its a spectacle. the destruction of expensive tires doesnt impress but the M5 is a beast for sure!!
