Practical Drifting Around the Christmas Tree
It’s a special time of year, and some people have a special idea of both wrapping a car, and how best to decorate the Christmas tree.
Drifting around a Christmas tree in BMWs is not a new thing. However Instagram user Christian Ebsen has taken the concept a step further.
In true do-it-yourself form, Ebson has wrapped his car with traditional seasonal wrapping paper from the store. It’s all held on by, believe it or not, Scotch tape.
No doubt some rich people with expensive cars will wrap their cars professionally in seasonal style, but we have a special place in our hearts for someone that dedicates themselves like this. This little project is proof you don’t need to spend a lot of money to have fun.
It’s clear in the video Ebson went all out in attention to detail with his Christmas wrapping. We particularly like the bow where the front badge is. He had already posted pictures of his wrap for his followers earlier, but then dropped this video as a surprise for them later.
While putting your tree in the middle of an empty piece concrete, firing up the car and burning rubber while having your buddy hangs out the window with a nice long piece of tinsel may not be the most efficient way to decorate the family Christmas tree, well, we’re hard-pressed to come up with a more fun way.
Ebson’s BMW 3 Series is a 1999 328IS built for drifting. For daily driving, he runs his car on BBS BMW style 5’s, but to go drifting he uses Style 19s.
Giving his video the full Christmas flavor is a soundtrack of remixes of popular songs. You can see, and hear, his extended version of the video and music on his YouTube channel here.
