Yes, This BMW M3 GTR Drift Car Really Is Powered By A Toyota 2JZ-GTE

You're kinda pissed off already, aren't you?

This is a very odd thing, so much so that we are genuinely at a loss as to whether or not we hate it or love it. The car is a Cartu Drifting M3 GTR, a mighty quick car to begin with, but this one features a Toyota 2JZ-GTE inline-six engine producing 700 horsepower. Those are two very good things on their own, but combining them seems to be unnecessary, and probably even wrong, like mixing vanilla ice cream and mayonnaise. Some things just don't mix.

At the same time though, this car did qualify 1st for the King of Europe Drift ProSeries round 4, so you can't argue with the results.
