It’s time for a BMW head-to-head… With a difference!

We’ve got Mat in the stock BMW M2, and he’s lining up against an E30 BMW 3 Series.

But this is no ordinary BMW 3 Series! It’s a Red Bull drift car with a huge engine under the bonnet, and on paper it looks like it could seriously push the BMW M2 all the way! So let’s take a closer look at the stats…

Starting with the M2, it’s powered by a 3-litre twin-turbo straight-six that can produce 480hp and 600Nm. This power is sent to the rear wheels only via an 8-speed auto gearbox, and it tips the scales at 1,754kg. In terms of cost, it’s valued at £71,645.

Then we come to the E30. The original engine has been ripped out, and it’s now packing a colossal Chevy 7.4-litre V8! This produces 630hp and 800Nm, with all this power sent to the rear wheels via a 5-speed sequential gearbox. As much as possible has been stripped out of the car to make it as light as possible, so you can guarantee it weighs a whole lot less than the M2!

But can a drift car really perform in a straight line? There’s only one way to find out for sure… LET’S RACE!
