I went through most of those cars from is200, RX8 to E46 2.8 and now I'm at 350Z and that's one of a best handling car I've ever experienced, amount of grip and its reliability it's amazing highly recommend this car for any one with basics
After owning an rx8 how did you feel? did you think its to much mantince or expensive to own? I've been thinking about one but they seem hard to justify
Rx8 gang 😎 first car, two year as daily, 2 drift events, 3 tracks days drove all the way there and back no issues. It’s only as reliable as the owner keeps up with maintenance
those things are pretty hit and miss though. sounds like you got an really well built one and thats good. but the danger of buying an rx8 isnt that every single one of them are unreliable. its that some are major money pits that never run and some run for years with no problems. (with proper maintenance of course)
No cons with a welder bro be punk kill em tyres there is no such a thing as daily and drift :D get an Econobox for daily and spend the rest on a rusty old crap and have fun life is short
If you’re looking for a MK1 MX5 you might want to pick it up soon, the prices have been getting a tad crazy for clean ones, most seem to be around 3-5k, and I’ve seen some go for up to 15k, it’s mad
2nd the Miata pick. I may be biased but I've never had any issues other than being slow. Never a mechanical failure over 10 events alone this year, and that's driving it to the track an hour and a half each way included. I fuckin' love my car, shame prices are starting to go up in the US.
My dad owns a MX-5 from 1990. One day I will get this car. But I'll don't change anything on this car. I mean it's an Oldtimer.. and this car is very nostalgic.
Definitely agree with this list, in terms of the E36s, the compacts are still chips and good for skids, picked mine up with a 2.8 in it for only a grand. Might not have the prettiest rear end but a bit of work and you good
Great list guys! I'd say a 330d e46/90 would be a worth considering, they are inexpensive, tougher drivetrain, relatively cheap 280-320 hp, silly torque and agricultural reliability. E90 would also fit the budget and still cheap parts. Would consider a touring, even, because of versatility, tyre/spares capacity. What do you guys think? Safe bet would be the 330i if you're not torque greedy.
are the diesel cars not low on torque at the top end where you need it? the e9x series in petrol may be a good shout these days 3 years later i think the 320i has about 170bhp which should be enough to get you sideways the 325i is little over 210 i think and the 330i around 270 but the 320i is around 1500/2000 pounds atm where as a 330i will be costing you 4k upwards
my first drift car is a 2011 mustang. which i'm still making payments on LOL. ( I bought the car in 2015) but i dint start drifting it till i did some mustang stuff. Cause you're never gonna worry about scratching your dents. But now that I'm stationed in Italy, I'm looking into a E36 or E46 for cheap fun and practice.

Can't beat an RX8 bang for buck!

Whats the good price for miata mx5 in europe for 133 hp is 2 900 euros too much? But its in really good condition. And is it better to take an e36 or e46 for that amount of money?
As a fun weekend car that might potentially do a couple of track days / DWYB's, would the initial cost of a 350z be off set by the reliability / maintenance costs vs an E46 325i? It's a couple grand cheaper to pick up a 325i than a 350z but I've heard the BMW will cost more to run and the more expensive 350z will end up cheaper in a year or two?

Depends on your age. If you have less than around 5 years no claims discount probably best to go for something like the MX-5 or a 325i if you don’t mind paying around 1.5-2k a year in insurance. Something like a 350z will probably always be quite expensive to insure. Remember most if not all insurance companies won’t cover if you crash in track.
Still think E36 is king. Yes road ones are gone mad prices but you can still get ex drift ones for reanable money.
Yes but they seem to be either really rough or really mint these days!
@@driftgames_life beginner car it's going to get rough anyway baught my first 318is with a cage,4:44 diff coilovers ect for just over€1200 never gave the slightest bit of trouble. Then I baught a e36 328 6 mounts and 6K plus later it still hasn't finished an event
@@fionn9684 it's always the way 😝
What would your opinion on a 1uz soarer with a BMW 5 speed be?
Asside from the reliability issures...I dont think the RX8 was very popular here because of tax/insurance
What about bmw 5 series first gen venos or ore vanos iv seen view for really cheap or cheapish and I'm in canada nd got a new job and my first pay check I want to get a shit box manual to learn in I get the just but putting it in action is diffrent also what are some reccomend first upgrades and shit I dont need or can upgrade for basic or next level improvement maby a super charger for low end power

Winner winner!
Why did you not recon end the 330 e46, curious
They are notoriously unreliable and difficult to work on
Can you daily drive?
Im 10 and really into drifting. I heard you can start a drifting career at 12 is it true? By career i mean star drifting on a track
Im guessing u just watched fast and furious?
Can u not drift a go kart
@@mwplayer3778 You can, You will have to build up quite a lot of speed in order to actually hold the drift but its very do able. Since go karts dont have hadnbrake syou will have to restore to weight transistion which can be hard but once you found your self the perfect go kart it will be a lot easier
Whats the good price for miata mx5 in europe for 133 hp is 2 900 euros too much? But its in really good condition. And is it better to take an e36 or e46 for that amount of money?
Yess
As a fun weekend car that might potentially do a couple of track days / DWYB's, would the initial cost of a 350z be off set by the reliability / maintenance costs vs an E46 325i?
It's a couple grand cheaper to pick up a 325i than a 350z but I've heard the BMW will cost more to run and the more expensive 350z will end up cheaper in a year or two?
350Z all day. Most bang for your buck in drifting in our opinion?!
@@driftgames_life Appreciate the response! 350z it is.
I'm not complaining, a couple of dreams cars aside, both the 350z and e46 are two of my favourite chassis.
Now delete this video until I pick one up next year.
Hi guys can you please give Luke Fink and Archy drift park a shout out our local council is trying to shut our drift track down and we can use all the help we can get to keep it up and running so people have somewhere to go other then the streets ✌🏼 cheers
What about the g35 or g35x
can u give us which website is this?
I bought my E36 for £750 2 years ago, seeing the prices increase makes me feel a little guilty about modifying it 😂😂
Get those parts in the basket and enjoy the car! No point wasting time ;)
@@nyleen yeah haha. I didn't buy the car just to preserve it for the next owner, I bought it to drift
I want to avoid chopping up the arches, but aside from that I can go mad lol
@@quest8795 Hell yes! Get some mad angle on that and do some skids!
I'll soon be ready to import a Verossa so I've got that to look forward to within a few months.
@@nyleen oh man, verossas are sick! It's like a jzx100 cresta just more curvy lol
And I've been drifting with stock angle for 2 years now, I like the challenge of it 😛
Is it better to drift with automatic or manual?
Manual
