The Mazda rx-8 was first started in 2003. The main goal for mazda when making this car was for it to be a sports car, but be able to calm down and drive on the open road and on the city streets with no trouble at all. This car was made to be extremley fun to drive and be affordable as well. With a 1.3 rotary motor not seen since the 90's. Mazda unveiled their new car in 2003 with a whopping 211 horsepower. This car would be the closest I could get to a "drift car" at my age of 17 because they only start at around $9,000 and go up from there.www.youtube.com/watch?v=QRiPSlx8PxA
First started in 2003 the nissan 350z was one of the first asian cars that could compete in power to the old american muscle cars.This is one of the most popular drift cars around the world due to sheer power and looks. The body style alone could make you dream over buying one. Nissan manufactured this car for only 7 years before discountinuing them in 2009. These cars start at around $36,870 - $42,570 and go up from there. So if you want one, you better have a nice amount of cash coming in.http://www.edmunds.com/nissan/350z/
My favorite car for really anything (driving, drifting, to look at) would have to be the Mazda RX-7. The best year by far would have to be an 85' savanna. A little history lesson- the mazda RX-7's were first created to compete with porsche. Seeing as how the perfect RX-7 is so old it doesnt come cheap these cars in mint condition start at around 20,000 and go up. If only i had more money .http://www.mazda.com/mazdaspirit/greatcar/p15.html
