00:00Okay, I am going to pick up another BMW.
00:05Yep, because I've decided that mine is not worth
00:09or safe fixing for the track in terms of,
00:14like I need to be able to bolt a roll bar to the car, right?
00:17And right now, the floor is completely rusted on my BMW,
00:20so I'm going to buy another one.
00:23I'm gonna go get my friend Andrew Summerfield.
00:25He builds BMWs as well.
00:28He's got an E46 drift car,
00:31and he's good with the fabrication of things,
00:33so he's gonna help me out.
00:35He also has a trailer, and we're gonna pick it up
00:38in this gigantic Nissan Titan that I'm currently driving.
00:41Look at my camera angle.
00:41It's pretty, like, dramatic, right?
00:43With the wheel right there.
00:44That's just where the camera would fit in the windshield.
00:47Yeah, this is, I don't want to ruin it for you.
00:49Ah, squirrel, holy.
00:50So I don't want to ruin it for you yet.
00:52You will see what kind it is,
00:54but it's a bit of a departure from what I did before.
00:57I know it's not an M3.
00:58I'm not doing that, but I'm pretty excited.
01:01This one is in kind of rough shape.
01:02I'm buying it for $2,000 Canadian,
01:05and yeah, let's go pick up Andrew.
01:11Good?
01:12Oh, my God.
01:12All right.
01:13Check each other again at fast food, make sure to check.
01:15Yeah, it's fast food time.
01:20All right, we are here picking up the car.
01:24Got a flatbed, and currently,
01:27the car wasn't going to start,
01:28so I brought my extra battery.
01:29I'm going to bring that.
01:30I'll show you the car in a second.
01:31Andrew's over there trying to get the old plate off of it.
01:34Okay.
01:40Yeah, and she's stopped.
01:48Okay.
01:49I'm going to have no clutch left in a couple seconds.
01:52Plan B.
01:57Okay.
02:01All right, we think that the handbrake cable might be seized,
02:03so Andrew is just going to try and cut the handbrake cable.
02:06We can fix it later.
02:07All right.
02:37Wow.
03:08Okay.
03:13Okay.
03:14Do you want to hit the highway or the back road?
03:15Well, let's, we'll do the highway back,
03:17but we've got to turn around in here somewhere
03:19so we can go back down that road, right?
03:22Yeah, she's heavy.
03:23Yeah, she is.
03:24I can feel it in the brakes.
03:25There you go.
03:26Yeah.
03:27Nissan brakes, let's be honest, to begin with,
03:30not very good.
03:31Very, very true.
03:31Yeah.
03:34Kind of jealous, actually.
03:35I like the coupes.
03:36It's nice, eh?
03:36Way nicer than sedans.
03:38It looks pretty awesome.
03:40Way nicer than sedans.
03:40I was always like, all about the sedan though, right?
03:42I mean, it's like,
03:43I've always adored coupes.
03:44Because it was different,
03:45because it was like, not everyone races a sedan,
03:46so I thought that was kind of cool,
03:47but it is kind of cool to have a coupe.
03:51And it's black, too.
03:51I like the black ones.
03:53Yeah, my car, obviously, it's black, too.
03:55I kind of want to wrap the hood a different color, though,
03:56or do some sort of like a,
03:58do you know what I mean?
03:59Like some sort of a design on it or something.
04:00Just something different.
04:02Get the Falcon one.
04:02Just like rip off Falcon.
04:03Let's expel Falcon wrong, so it's like,
04:05I love that livery,
04:06like the turquoise and the blue,
04:08and that family lettering.
04:09Yes.
04:10Just expel Falcon wrong or something.
04:10Okay.
04:11Falcon.
04:12Yeah, Falcon.
04:13There you go.
04:14Work on like a Super Smash Bros. theme,
04:16be like Falcon Punch,
04:17like the capital of that.
04:18Oh, man, that's so awesome.
04:19And on the side,
04:20have like Falcon Punching,
04:21that's like the thing.
04:22Ah, Falcon Punch.
04:24See, I'm not a dad yet,
04:25so backing up a trailer,
04:27once you become a dad,
04:28you automatically know how to back up a trailer
04:30with just one hand and in a mirror, right?
04:32But I'm not a dad yet, so I can't do it.
04:36Okay.
04:47It's not running very well at the moment.
04:49Even though I don't care.
04:55I stalled.
04:58No power steering.
05:01No brakes.
05:05No brakes.
05:09All right, I'm gonna try and drive this thing around.
05:15I think we're,
05:16things aren't going well.
05:18Yeah, no, she's not happy.
05:20Many things are broken in this car.
05:26This is a very, very upset BMW.
05:29I'll just leave this right here.
05:36It's working really well.
05:38I'm just gonna, yeah.
