Drift South Matsuri, Krasnodar, Russia 7-8 June 2025
And my special agent reporter is at the event once again. Here's the car défilé, so you can check out typical Russian drift garage. No Miatas in sight :)

@viybz taggin you cuz i know you're curious

this account's humor is not available in your region

no miatas in sight lmao

a ton of bmw e36's though!

very cool to see..a totally different build style. lots of cars which is awesome.

thanks for sharing! i need to send you some stickers to hand out! <3

a decent percentage of my Instagram views come from Russia <3

WOWOW! I think i contributed to delivering your content to firens around here and they always seem interested and say those pictures of yours are some cool. 

Miata's are really rare here. And now that JDM is closed for us (can't import older that 3yo cars from japan) people build old bimmers which is like a russian carmake (lol) after 90's when all the bandits and mafia drove e36/38/39 in russia. Probably the cheapest entry level driftgear now

true. all in all my view is that this is how the government tries to at least give a chance to AvtoVAZ, cuz otherwise everyone would just buy a japanese car. in the last 5 years 30% of people sold their old cars to buy new from China. We have more chineese cars now than from any other country. 

Anyway, if you search for Vladivostok, which is originally the main hub to ship cars to russia, almost the entire city drives rhd even tho we have  right lane as primary across entire country. they even have parking machines and KFC drivethru with everything on the right side simply because of the majority.

btw i tried to ship postcards and stickers to USA and failed. But i sent a simple letter without tracking and i guess it lost forever now, should have sent a proper shipment with tracking etc. i think packages are impossible to ship directly but common letter with stickers could get thru.

i also have unlimited access to a printshop (used to work there) and i think we have the same Orafol films. Just send file :)

yeah i need to figure out how to send a package to Russia without being put on a list LMAO. i appreciate all the sharing you do! thank you so much. i love the russian culture and attitude, the resourcefulness, and their own slammed/low style.  

and yeah thats crazy, the 3 year japan law is wild. i need to research it more, but i don't get it. Russia has no global car maker to compete? but still that incentives people to buy new foreign cars? 

which is weird, bc America won't allow Japanese imports unless they're over 25 years old, which promotes new and used car buying in America. 

BMW e36's are still very common entry level cars here too. same with the e46's..so many of them still in good shape.
