These are all great drift cars but this guy literally just went and picked out some of his favorite cars to talk about. From any experience with a couple of internet searches and local track days, finding any of these cars for cheap is next to impossible because of the drift tax. These cars were cheap and affordable at one time but have now grown to be so popular and actually increase their value. If you're going to make a video like this, at least do some actual research on car prices throughout the US. Or other countries depending on where in the world you live. This video is the same as someone making a pulling truck video and saying they are talking about the cheapest best pulling trucks to buy and then only talking about newer diesel trucks of today with added mods to be able to pull a sled. It just makes literally zero sense.
