My girlfriend has never driven a powerful car — is this for her?

Yes. The class starts from zero, at moderate speeds that rise only when she feels comfortable. The professional instructor sits beside her on every lap, explains everything simply and guides her step by step. No prior experience or car knowledge needed.

She drives automatic — can she drift a manual car?

Yes. The BMW E36 is manual, but the clutch is basically just for pulling away: in the slide you work the steering and throttle in a fixed gear, with the instructor guiding every step.

Can I come along and film her?

Yes: companions watch and film from a safe zone of the circuit. Her first slide ends up on your phone, ready to show around.

What if we would rather both drive?

You can: each takes their own class and you rotate — while one drives with the instructor alongside, the other watches and films from the safe zone. It is the couples drift class format, one of the most requested plans.

How much does it cost and how do I pay?

Drift Intro: $300 USD (30 minutes at the wheel). Drift Experience: $500 USD (60 minutes at the wheel). You book with a 50% deposit by bank transfer; the rest is paid at the track on the day of the class, in cash (pesos or dollars) or by transfer. Pesos at the day's dólar P2P rate. Everything is coordinated via WhatsApp at +54 9 11 6833-3342.

What if I give her the voucher and she cannot go soon?

No problem: the digital voucher is valid for 12 months from purchase, so she picks her date at leisure. The track is El Picódromo, at Av. Olimpo 80, Esteban Echeverría (south of Greater Buenos Aires), and classes run Monday to Thursday. Map: https://maps.app.goo.gl/Wc6edGAhDxve8WBw7

An Original Gift for Your Girlfriend: Drifting in Buenos Aires

By Dmitrii McCarthy

An original gift for your girlfriend or wife: drifting in Buenos Aires

This article is currently available in Spanish. A native English version is coming soon. Quick summary: if you have already cycled through clothes, perfume and dinners, give her a story instead — a drift class where SHE drives. She takes the wheel of a prepared BMW E36 328i, rear-wheel drive, on a closed circuit on the outskirts of Buenos Aires, one-on-one with a professional instructor beside her on every lap. No experience needed, no car knowledge, no manual-gearbox skills — the clutch is basically just for pulling away. Honest note: this gift is for the adventurous woman, the one who proposes the plans; if cars genuinely bore her, pick something else. Popular variant: the couples format, where you both take a class and rotate — one drives while the other films from the safe zone. Prices: Drift Intro $300 USD (30 min), Drift Experience $500 USD (60 min). Digital voucher via WhatsApp, valid 12 months. You pay a 50% deposit by bank transfer when buying it and the rest at the track on the day of the class (cash in pesos or dollars, or transfer); pesos at the day's dólar P2P rate.
