Default Top 10 Drifting Cars.

http://velocity.isfaster.com/drift/cars/cars.htm


I'm not a very experienced drifter myself so I can't do my own Top 10 list but maybe someone else in this lovely community has their own Top 10 drift cars list? Personally I think that a certain German carmanufacterer from Bavaria produces cars with very nice balance and weight proportion (front/back) could qualify as top ten. Especially the M-cars. My own 4-Matic Merc is pretty fun on snow though

^^^^

Not really

The cars in the UK D1 Drift championship are much more suited.

I think the M3 is the most suitable here.

The Modena/F50/Diablo are too snappy and will not hold out a drift for long... especially through a long series opr corners

I think a BMW M5 would be pretty good too (according to stuff I've read sadly)
and so a Honda S2000.

Anyone to back that up?

That #1 is definitely correct. I heard that guys put an engine in the Trueno that revs to 11,000 rpm and puts out like 240 hp NA. Crazy stuff.

lol... That's from Initial D. They put a racing engine in the trueno after Takumi blows the original. I don't know if anyone's actually done this.

Chasers are very beautiful and it's awesome seeing the Mazora Chaser drift and kicking up smoke!

actually the chaser in stock form is pretty ugly, its just another toyota whitegood. i see it here where most ppl dont kit it up. then when you see it in japan, they have nice kits, rims and brake rotors that barely fit into the rims. then it has the looks of one mean machine.

but i would love to see that mazora chaser against the uras skyline
