No love for G35s?

Now I know it is odd for people to buy a luxury car that is over $20,000 and go drifting with it, but you would think that since the G35 is a popular car to mod, that more people would be willing to drift it.

Any thoughts or experiences using the rear-wheel driveness of your car to its potential?

Those videos are somewhat embarrassing to watch. Those were just donuts, and none of which were very good at all.

I've seen the Falken G drift in real life at SEMA in Vegas, but I'm talking about people actually going out and drifting, not doing donuts in a parking lot. That's the kinda stuff I do ^_^

The sedan has a rep as a family car. Given the price and rep I'm not shocked at all. Maybe down the line when they are older and cheaper to fix.
