If you haven't gotten the picture by now, BMW's all-new M3 and M4 are kind of a big deal. Not only are they cars that enthusiasts DIE to have, they're also a big piece of BMW's "DNA." These are going to be the two cars that people think of when BMW comes to mind.

One day before this year's Bimmerfest East, it turns out BMW North America wanted to do something a little special to mark the occasion. And, considering the customer base along the Atlantic seaboard, it concocted a special video to mark the all-new M4's arrival.

Called the M Initiation, BMW gathered up a slew of M cars and brought in a Formula Drift champion, Chris Forsberg, to create this spot.

If you leaf through my photos from Bimmerfest below, you'll note the tire marks, leftover rubber and shredded tires. Gotta love it!


Note: the Austin Yellow M4 is equipped with the M Performance exhaust.

BMW's press release follows:

The First-Ever BMW M4 Races Through One-of-a-Kind Course Constructed from Fan-Sourced Current and Classic BMW M Vehicles.

 

Woodcliff Lake, NJ – The first-ever BMW M4 was welcomed into the BMW M family by navigating through a thrilling, one-of-a kind course created almost entirely out of current and classic BMW M vehicles sourced from fans.  BMW enthusiasts from all over the country volunteered their BMW M vehicles from every generation to be a part of this exclusive experience, including an ultra-rare BMW 1 Series M Coupe. 
 
With 49 total cars, 4 race cars and more than 11,566 horsepower, precision drivers Matt Mullins, Chief Driving Instructor, BMW Performance Driving School, and Chris Forsberg, Formula Drift Champion, put the BMW M4 through the specially-designed course that formed the shape of a BMW M Series logo - revealed at the end of the video.
 
The 2015 BMW M4 Coupe is powered by the same 3.0-liter inline-6 cylinder engine with M TwinPower Turbo technology as its M3 sibling. The BMW M4 Coupe features increased performance levels that distinguish it from previous generations of the M3 family, delivering 425 horsepower. The BMW M4 Coupe will start with an MSRP of $65,125.
 
The M Initiation video is now available on BMW of North America's YouTube and social media channels with the hashtag #MRated.
