Toyota MR2 1990-1999

Although not the smartest choice for drifting, this mid-ship Toyota MR2 is still well suited for drifting. Because the engine is in the back, and thus most of the weight is towards the rear, the car is known to be tail-happy and has a natural tendency to over steer. It does have quite a learning curve and especially as a beginner it’s better to stick with front-engine to learn the basics first.

Driving a car like this can leave the impression of a nervous steering response. It takes great balance and delicate care of weight distribution in order not to spin-out. If you still plan on getting one the SW20 that is pictured above is the one to buy. If you're buying a midship you also might consider the MR-S, which is the SW20’s successor.
