First, manual transmission is what you want. You can get more control over the engine with manual transmission.
Second, RWD. 4WD and FWD are can drift, but it's a completely different ballgame. It's best to stick to RWD, because you need to balance the rear with the throttle. Mercedes is not a very popular brand for drifting since it's more of a luxury brand, but you can drift any Mercedes, except for the A-class of course. 190Es are great for drifting. Porsche makes high performance sports cars and so all RWD Porsches will be a joy to drift. Be aware that you need to go after one with RWD, and not one with a 4WD system. Suzuki has the Cappuchino which is actually quite a good and very balanced car for drifting. It is sometimes even spotted on drifting events, but isn't the most popular choice. Volvo's older car line-up used to be RWD and offered some great cars that are happy to go sideways. The 340 till 360, the 240 till 266 and the 740-780 are the ones you want for drifting. Opel/Vauxhall has quite a lot of RWD cars but again, most of them are older cars like the Omega, Manta, Kadett, Ascona, etc. If you want something newer get the new GT or Speedster. Dodge offers the Charger and the Viper. Both have been used in Formula D. You don't see these cars around amateur events, but you stop wondering why if you find out their pricetag. [b]Pontiac[/b[ has the GTO, also known as the Holden Monaro it has been quite an influence to the American drifting scene. Rhys Millen drove a Pontiac GTO in the Formula D competition. And the most popular drift cars: Nissan: Silvia (89-98) Skyline GTS-t (89-93) (Only released in Japan, you'll have to get that one imported, and thats not cheap) 350Z (99-present) Toyota: Corolla Altezza (98-05) Cressida (JZX) (92-00) Supra (92-00) MR2 (90-99) Honda: S2000 (99-present) NSX (90-05) (Not a smart choice if drifting is all you're doing with it, it's built more as a racer, and has a hell of a price tag, but is ideal for drifting) Mazda: RX-7 (85-02) RX-8 (03-present) MX-5 (89-present) Ford: Mustang Sierra (87-93) Escort (68-80) (Antique, difficult to find) |

Altezzas are hard to find in manual/stick. Easy to find an auto one, since it is a Lexus.
Supras are rare, but Altezzas have a similar engine Corollas - might as well get an AE86 since you want a "cheap" drifting car. Rx-7s - the 3rd gen FDs are good, but rare as well. It can get pretty pricey if you want one in decent condition. |
