If you're interested in buying a drift car, you have many choices. You have the option of a Nissan 180sx (or Lexus IS200), or a Mazda RX-7. So which one is the best? There are many models to choose from. You can even use a drift car for your daily commute. This article will explain which cars are best for drifting. Once you have made your decision, you can start driving a drift vehicle.
FD3S
The FD3S drift car, the latest in Nissan's FD lineup, is now available. It boasts 400bhp. It also features a carbon fiber hood and custom venting. An aero kit can be ordered that includes a V mount intercooler. The car features a FEED rear fender and front fender. The body is made of mirror-black FD3S.
Mazda RX-7
With its rear-wheel drive, limited slip differential and near perfect 50/50 weight distribution, the Mazda RX-7 is a great drift car. The Mazda RX-7's low center gravity and sport-tune suspension are just a few of its other features. In North America, the car was sold under the Series 6 designation. The Mazda 20B engine was used in Japan. The series 6 model was 230 horsepower and 200 ft.lbs of torque.
Lexus IS200
The Toyota IS200 is more than just a sports car. It has a sleek body and an elegant interior that will make you believe it's designed to be used in drift events. However, the car is built for drifting, and can reach incredible speeds on speed-sensitive tracks. The car was designed and developed by Nobuaki Katayama, who was previously the lead engineer for the Toyota AE86.
Nissan 180sx
The Nissan 180SX is a very popular car in Japan, especially in Tokyo and the mountains. It is popular among young people and is the last subcompact car with rear-wheel drives. This car was made to last, and a recent facelift makes it even better. It has an SR20DET twin-cam engine and has been rebuilt from the ground up with forged pistons, reworked cylinder heads, and a new metal head gasket. An aftermarket intake kit is included as well as an intercooler that can be mounted on the front.
Mercedes C230
Mercedes makes some great cars for drifting. Porsches are renowned for their performance. Beginners should look into the Mercedes C230 Kompressor (W202), which has a supercharged 4-cylinder engine. It's a powerful car with a top speed of 142 mph. The car can accelerate to 60 mph in just 8.4 seconds. There are many options that will make your car more affordable if it's your first vehicle.
AE86
The Toyota AE86 Drift Car is a brilliant example of how a turbocharged Honda Civic Type R can be combined with a sports car. Beau Yates is the man behind this car. He modified a 2.0-liter Inline-four engine. Yates won the Drift Australia Championship in 2006, and his AE86 has a unique powertrain. It's an electrified vehicle and Yates claims it would be hard to drive if it was a traditional car.
