BMW FTW! (Sorry, I'm biased. I love BMW's over ANYTHING)

Or go the tried and tested route: S13 w/ SR20DET swap.

i dont know how hard to find parts in your side of the world but ill go with the AE86, remember drifting is not about getting to the finish line its about show, execution of the turn and on tandem drift how close you get to the other car. the AE86 may not be the most powerful car in the drifting scene but people love the underdog and will cheer you on all the way thats what sponsors like to see, thats why AE86 will always and will be in drifting.

E30 BMW 325 is perfect for drifting. BMW's are world renowned for handling because of the near perfect chassis and weight distribution.

It's because I have had many of them. I KNOW them like the back of my hand.

What gave it away for you? haha was it that I knew the chassis code of the car instead of the year?

E30 M3 evolution is the only BMW i want to own, it has the history and performance to back it up. I dont know why when i buy a track car I want something with a racing DNA for some people its about brand name or looks but love to do research before i buy. I love all kinds of cars as long as they have a racing pedigree
