Hi, I'm 23 and I'm looking for a car to get. I can't really afford to get a super nice car right away, but I'd like to get something older that has a lot of potential and can be fixed up nicely over time. I'd like to keep it under 5k. I live in so cal and have several tracks not too far away. Drifting looks pretty cool and fun. Is it hard? I can drive manual. Recommendations? I was looking at older BMW 3 series, but I'm not sure how good those are for souping up. Thanks.

I would look at old supras and other Japanese cars if i where you most old unmodded ones go with 2k to 5k. a lot of older camareo's fall within your price range. others to check out would be the MR2,dodge stealth, turbo honda etc. if you what to drift you are problay going to what limited slip diff.
