    What would your budget be? I'd really suggest an S-body i.e. 180SX, 200SX, Silvia for starting out if you can afford it.

    Id defo recommend a nissan anyway, best chassis and most tuning mods available.. aswell as countless spare parts and knowledgable folk around to help!

    Having said that though, an AE86 is great to learn the basics in as its low power makes YOU use your skills to drift whereas nissans with much more power and stability make it easier to drift.. depends what your aiming for really!

    claire you will pick a s13 up for feck all these days. great car to learn in and shit loads of simple mods out there to mack the car so much better, if its just going to be a track car go to the uk and your looking at about 1500 all in for a decent runner
