Heavy and underpowered, but Volvo 240? CHEAP and bulletproof...

this. strap on a turbo for 200 bucks and you got a winner.

Come up to Lebanon Valley for the drift events. Super friendly and grassroots envorionment that's perfect for getting started and there's only like one wall you could even potentially hit. it's way laid back which I love about drift events compared to auto-xes etc.

Thats for all the great responses everybody I really do appreciate it.

Ill chime back in once I get myself into a car! Hopefully sometime soon !

If traveling for the car is an option, there's a bunch of 240's on the Pittsburgh Craigslist. Even a few FC's that are worthwhile..

Get a RWD car and don't fall in love with it. If you drift long enough you will crash it.

Like the post above mine says: Diff, suspension, and a seat.

Try to avoid a welded diff. Get a good LSD. No one likes off throttle understeer.

I learned to drift in the winter, at low speeds in my E30. Then when the snow melted, I had the technique mostly down pat and so I slowly increased the speed.
