As streetview shows: http://goo.gl/maps/I7PmThere are always rocks in the middle of the road. About 5km after leaving the dealer I gave it a shot of gas on a roundabout just to see how it would react -> back end steps out very easily on a wet road, even when just going off throttle. Didn't try to drift it though, I think drifting it could be dangerous due to the limited amount of steering lock... to drift a car you need big steering angles to be able to correct it if you would overcook it. I wouldn't recommend to really try and drift the M3W on public roads... you could be facing the wrong direction on many occasions. For just sporty driving on dry roads, the oversteer is not really an issue as it is easy to correct if you are awake and ready to do so  Great car, extensive write up and more video comming in the next few days.
I'll drive.

Doesn't the zipper on the tonneau cover mess the paint up when you are driving at speed? Or is there something between them so there is no zipper to paint contact?
