BMW X disgusting 😂 still funny and relevant 11yrs later
Returning here again, helps me to improve both my mental model and real world FWD drifts seen on my page. ---- 1:14 (Reasonable indication point to apply throttle, i.e. when car is balanced, when oversteer is controlled wrt apex) ---- 2:23 (Consequences of overdriving) ---- 3:38 (Consequences of throttling too much wrt apex, results in "power understeer" which may actually be repaired by left foot braking appropriately) ---- 7:02 (After already having triggered oversteer, lack of throttle means we may spin out) As noted, with FWD we sideway the car into the corner, while with RWD we can create momentum and slide through an entire longer corner.
Having now owned an m3 for over 2 months, not sure i agree. Felt more sp3cial for rhe first few drives because of the motorsport credentials but definitely missing the sense of drama the AMG would have . The looks are good, not great. Interior is very durable , always has one issue after another hahaha but overall its a fantastic car but i prefer more torque. The AMG is more fun but the M car then claws things back when you rev it to 8k without breaking the speed limit. The sound is nowhere near as special as the c63 even when revved up. The thing the M car wins hands down on is the transmission , and thats the only thing that sets it apart . Not when approaching a junction, it hesitates way too much but once yiure on the go, that DCT is spectacular for its age
Found this video around 1 year ago, but by then I had already been drifting my Fk8, wish I had found it at the start. (a) I learnt by experience and estimation, about working the throttle, lift off oversteering, just to control oversteer and avoid hitting curbs. (b) Afterwards I naturally learnt to operate wrt points looking like an apex. If I had seen this video first, I would have started with a combination of (b) and (a), not merely mostly (a)!!! This is probably where Harris learnt to drift FWD, which lead to him drifting fk8 and beyond:
Have a 2008 tts awesome sounds great goes like boom
I defy 99% of drivers to tell the difference in the standard vs the S models. Not nearly enough was done to turn a "failure" into something to rave over. Slightly lower, with bigger wheels and a leather dash. My 2.4 is enough to put a smile on my face when I drive it, and a bigger one when I polish it. It's a very special car, and as I have no intention to track-day the car, the handling is a pretty good compromise between handling and comfort. It also has the potential to outrun the 3.2 with some tuning.

De toute évidence, ils ne roulent pas du bon côté ! Sacré roastbeef
The alpina d3 biturbo, better brakes, better suspension, no flat runs, handle like a dream,, the oddball I would go for
Ah yes, I used to have this on VHS back in 95.
Streaming wasnt the best quality back in 2008-2009.. :)
a dream with this engine.❤
What i would pay to see in 4k...or even 720 lol. Awesome stuff
Not all P****s are hanging down trouser legs.
Just wonderful 👍
The Throttle/ torque response of the M113K in the SL55 was actually instant , it was just that the 5G box could be slow to change or kickdown. There was no false from that engine either, it was all real V8 noise with a hint of supercharger whine.
Brainwashed all 3 of you. Who drives around @ 8500Rpm all day ? The IS F is the best all rounder all day long….. set of rod bearings anyone?

J’ai une 911 997.2 et en mode sport je n’ai JAMAIS senti cette poussée en avant comme montré dans cette vidéo. Merci quand même 👍
Wild to think two of these guys are now on top gear shows
Think I’ll try that this winter, I’ve only done FWD “drift” by pulling my e brake on corner entry on snow covered roads, I think trying to do that on dry pavement wound just tear the car up unnecessary. 06 vibe 1zz with upgraded rear sway bar.
LC for the win :)
Future classic for sure.
Does he say "IS missing" or "ISN'T missing" I literally can't tell. If he says "IS missing" it feels like he didn't mean to, he spent the previous 3 sentences explaining how it feels like a sharper edged car.
Neil’s lap was genuinely impressive
My new Camry TRD has an electric "handbrake" and in its current state it cannot be used for anything but parking. I've heard of modifications to make it behave like a real one
Chris in his early days is like any RUclipsrs when they just getting started. Legend
Fastest BMW 123d in EUROPE ruclips.net/video/pqt65dQNuaE/видео.html Give likes for post reach
full head of hair😶
Very cool. Having owned an R26 and now the champ white they are both absolutely awesome cars which both have many merits
Chris Harris! In nappies! Top tip: just put old hard tyres on the rear and you'll get a bit of action from your FWD. It'll swing around like an old Beemer...
I had a mk7 Audi A4 2.0 TFSI special edition Quattro full Audi service history was a super money pit including oil chain pump failure in total I lost 20k just for that alone. I now own a reliable swift Lexus GS 450h f sport and love knowing it’s not an Audi or German.
Lol, and today Tesla has a $1 Trillion market cap
Rubbish you don't know what you talking about M3 is the best numbers don't lia final
And let me guess your a better driver and experienced then the legendary chris Harris? 🤣
Don't miss the chocolate parts in the 997.1 The pdk Base carrera 3.6 is utterly brilliant in Coupe form
Enjoyed that, this temped me into getting one! It had to be the ‘Cup’ though. I love it, great front end and revvy engine. Perfect for where I live in between the Lake District and N Yorks and their amazing. B roads.
I bought one in 2010and I still have it today. love it.
How cool!
@@oscardominguez1680 Actually I have just sold it and now have a Jaguar F Type. Also cool I hope.
@@fourspooks4518 wow, well played!
@@fourspooks4518 how's the F type treating you?
@@JWL-UK It's awesome, just loving it. thanks.
Another Chris Harris video I’ve just discovered and quite pleased with that discovery!!
Anybody that needs launch control shouldn't have a driving licence
Lexus, it will never break.
Need one of these but where it show steering wheel handling, the footwork, and external view
Chris Harris is very good in this video - and yet - it’s interesting to see how much better he’s become at his craft.
No one here thought this guy will be the a top gear producer soon lol ( comments that are like 10 years old )
Actually i was pretty sure he’d get far when watching this 10 years ago
@@ahpadt wow you're still here after 10 years, yeah you're right about thinking he would go far lol, probably the best job you can get as a car journalist 👍
kansei dorifto
6:25 "we are virtually going backwards"
wrong info - m3 is not torqy at all.
The Lexus will outlive the German Cars anyday!
All drivers of japanese cars only say that their cars are durable, and it's only one advantage of those cars
He used to have hair!!
@user-bh8vw2fj9i there's no evidence though
Chris is allways right .. -) ..
