Wait, a four-door drift car project that doesn't have a Toyota or Nissan badge on it? That's right.
This E36 3-series BMW is being built by Swedish drifter Mikael Svensson for use in the Nordic Drifting Series. Mikael and the Swedrift team are hard at work finishing up the car, which is going to be powered by a 900hp turbocharged M3 engine. The four-door E36 still has a ways to go before it's track ready, but the team is planning on a "clean" exterior look that includes a set of fender flares modified from a Mk.1 VW Golf. Mikael has been building and racing BMW's for 20 years, so we can't wait to see what the finished product looks like.

Nice, my old car. I've been waiting for someone to do one up as a drift car, it's such a great chassis.
Agreed, I dig the E36 chassis. Should be a good base for drifting. Just test drove an E46 M3 last week, what a sweet car all around and that swanky 6 cylinder. Yummo!
MORE BMW DRIFTING!

...bmw month...
To bad they didn't put a 2JZ in it!
STJ - are you obsessed with Jap engines or what?
No i'm not obsessed with JDM engine's but the 2JZ is ten time's better than any M3 engine. So why not put it in a BMW, its been done before!
900hp is way overkill.
