  • If you're bored of all the usual drift cars, how about an estate wagon with a 430HP turbo six-cylinder engine? On this episode, I do a drift test of the JZS17 Toyota Crown Estate Athlete V at Nikko Circuit.

      Me, too, though those ones seem like they have a *lot* of rear overhang and weight of glass there. (Crowns in general seem bigger than they'd need to be. I'd like the Altezza wagon, though, whatever they were called.) Definitely my Volvo wagon in the wet doesn't want a ton of angle in the wet unless I'm really shedding speed to make a corner, ...which mostly happens in bad conditions, rather than me out to have that kind of fun deliberately. Also forget about drifting in the dry in this motor's case. :)
