Driving it and beating the crap out of it is two different thing.
I don't think anyone in there right mind would abuse there car like that.
All those smoke you could of hit the camera guy or wrap your car around the poor light pole..than again it yours car do what ever you want with it..don't come crying when something break.

Just so you know Peter happens to be a respected member of this community and a stand up guy. He loves cars and keeps an E63 and 997TT.
Perhaps you should take your car to a track to keep it from going fast and furious into a light pole, or worse, another car.

That's it buddy, prove to us how immature you are. You can't be older than 20 and that may be stretching it. Please go find another forum if you want to find support for the way you drive. If you remain here, keep it respectful. You ask our opinion of your video and we gave it to you. What are you upset for?

Everytime I see or hear about someone in a exotic car that wrap it around a tree I really feel sorry for the car and the tree.
OP-don't take it personally, when you post something like this on a public forums you going to get responses you're not going to like. I'm sorry if I hurt your feeling. Peace bro!

C'mon now, he can't be the only one to do a donut in the E? I know I have once or twice since it is the first car I've owned with enough power to do it.
Donuts may not be for everybody, but to each his own.

A little burnt rubber won't hurt an e55. Not to mention Jeremy Clarkson does this every week.....At the end of the day its just a car. A well built performance machine, but a car none the less.

+1. A guy on a TV show does this every week in all kinds of super cars and we all drool, yet we give some guy flak for doing it on his own? When I see clarkson powersliding and whipping AMGs around a track it gives me a warm and fuzzy feeling and makes me want to do it also...not that I would of course!

Yea but like you said "At a TRACK"" . also im sure there is paperwork involved that needs to be signed where his company will pay for any damages incurred ... I think the Flak is coming more from doing it in some city parking lot and the fact it almost looks like he gonna clip/sideswipe into whoever holding the cam .. Yea i get the urge to ripem up once in a while .. not sitt there and do 10 360's within a 40x30 lot .. Personally i for one didnt think the car would sit there and keep doing 360's one after the other .. guess you learn somthing new everyday ..

If you want to do donuts, and I mean real donuts where the car pivots practically on one front tire, get yourself a 1960s American big block car with a 4-speed and a posi. I'm speaking from experience here - see my profile.
If you want to go one level higher check out this video
The 55 does a lot of things well but donuts isn't one of them.
