VDC off, brake torque (so yes, hold the brake a little while giving gas). 2nd gear works better than D.

EDIT: Not responsible for blown tires/future brake failure/transmission go boom boom. Personally I don't know why people like to do donuts. It's silly IMO.

Donuts are pretty dumb any monkey can do them. Drifting well on the other hand takes some real skill

Add another to the list saying doing burnouts and donuts are dumb


I would NEVER in a million years buy a car that was a loaner at a dealership. You would have to give me the car for free. Those things must get trashed

I am getting a loaner tomorrow when i bring mine in. Have no idea what i am getting though

I wouldn't trash anything that I don't personally own. Have to respect others property.

as far as loaners go, only the young n dumb drivers will abuse them...but the majority of the infiniti owners are older and responsible and arent so careless when they are given somethin that isnt theirs.

i just got the loaner, trust me it's a piece of junk. The whole outside has scratches and scuffs and dings every where. When I got in the back seat had wrappers from food and an old orange juice carton (wtf?) there was like dry coffee and chocolate milk spilled in the front. Regardless of who's/what car it is, im just wondering how I could initiate these maneuvers. I already googled the information, just looking for extra info. At worst it is just wearing down the tread of the tires..


beats me as to why anyone would buy a loaner car to begin with, they are driven harshly by many...

odd. all of my loaners are kept clean and washed and serviced regularly. we even have an m37 loaner as well. im guessin a vast majority of "loaner" drivers are kids like you.....which is prolly why that dealer doesnt care to keep them up. my guess tho. tis a shame. i wouldnt have a problem buyin a loaner car from my dealer, i just dont like base models. lol

better yet, if you wanna be an irresponsible idiot, then go google how to drive like an irresponsible idiot. try youtube as well. make sure you make a seperate thread when you wreck the car and you're stuck with the bill.

Maybe they give certain loaner cars to certain people... The cars that are clean and well kept go to the drivers who look like they would take care of it?

1. If you Googled it, why did you ask here knowing you were gonna get flamed? It does much more than "just wearing down the tread." Go Google that one too.

2. So.. Because someone before you beat on it makes it okay for you to. *Sigh*. This is the reasoning we follow... No wonde.... Nevermind.

I was given a G37 Sedan with only 4 miles on the ODO a few months ago.

Still had all the stickers and tags intact.

I took care of it like it was my car for the entire week.

And, don't you have to be at least 21 or 25 to get a loaner?
