yep, skill and a handbrake, plus a limited slip differential would aid a bit

Put some trays underneath the back tires and lock the e-brake.

McDonald's trays work the best. Must be the grease or something.

Use 2nd gear, over 60km/h, turn steering wheel and pull handbrake at the same time, there you go, you can drift with your Camry!

Chances are you can drift until you hit the curb then promptly roll.

There is a reason that even Street class Ice racing cars *must* have roll bars.

Sign up at your local track for some racing lessons, or get involved with your local sports car club and drive SOLO / Autocross events to burn off some of that adreneline before attempting anything stupid. You can drift there all you want Your times will likely suck doing it but hey its legal, controlled, supervised and much safer.

Pylons do way less damage to your Bling Bling than fire hydrants.

Or worse be the guy that we hear about on the radio who killed some little kid playing on the front lawn.

When I said "something stupid" earlier, that, is exactly what i was talking about.

camry's a drift queen on snow, pedal e brake works really well

summer, you can do it, but it takes some pretty high speeds, and just load the suspension opposite the direction of the turn (turn slightly opposite the direction of the turn, then into the turn, if you don't have a bigger swaybar in the rear, you should be able to get the ass to come out)
