rx7 would be a nice choice, a good learning experience.

Miatas are hard to start drifting with. I would start out with a 240, anything 91 or up. The stock ka24 has plenty of power, the main thing in drifting is not power, but suspension.

I wouldn't drive a Miata, it would hurt my manliness. Also, have you ever seen/sat in one? Those cars are absolutly tiny. A teacher at my school had one and we worked on it in shop class. This one guy that is about 6ft couldn't fit in it for ****.

I actually passed my first driving exam in US using my friend's miata. I do not remember it being tight on me. But I'm below 6 feet.

Not sure about the "manliness". Think it's a matter of personal perception, cause I don't see anythingnot acceptable to malein them...

Agent thats not true about a six foot tall person. I know someone who is six four, and once you get in them you can put the seat all the way back and they are roomy. I've ridden in them and am about six foot and love them. Plenty of power and very zippy! Be a good drifter too, i've ridden in a drift miata before and it was fun as hell.

haha well i dunno. my cousin drove his moms miata and he had to take the top off cuz he didn't fit. he's 6'4".

i'm only 5'10" so i can fit in basically any car with plenty of room. oh and i'm not fat either.
