His name's Andre de Vries, pro racing driver and this is what he does for fun.
He used to have an E46 M3, now a 130i with some mods.

Drifting an offramp in the M3 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Xk3VeZtDxs)

In the M3 around a small drift track. Showing how it's done. With inside view of the pedals aswell (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uGPy30iFOKg)

Onboard lap of Zandvoort racing circuit in the BMW 130i (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gJUdye_7hrA&feature=related)

His own 130i has been equipped with racing suspension and a drexler LSD. Which means he can now do this

Finally this is what you can do with a 330d estate... (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QpHuou1xemE)

Could be around 450$ per tire...

And I would like to see you drift a Pinto on a highway offramp like that. The M3 is on the same tires the CSL came on, you know, the ones BMW made everyone that bought one sign a document stating you're fully aware of the risks of driving those tires in the wet. Most slick road legal tire you can get. Drift those on the dry and you'll have to buy a new one really soon. And they're not cheap. Not to mention how twitchy those things are in the wet. You need a lot of balls to drift those, and skill because you could be facing the wrong way in no time.
