3-series BMW's are killer drifters (out of all that I did, only spun once, when road was inconsistent ice and dry road)

4Runners are wicked in snow- no spin, and suprisingly little roll for an SUV, don't try doing it on dry because its...its damn common sense.

Miata's are VERY difficult to drift using just the engine power (power over), you pretty much have to handbrake it, which I would not do because it's dangerous since you have to take your hands off the wheel. Jerking the wheel and mashing the gas makes the rear step out, but it gets back in line before you even have a chance to start countering.

Mercedes CLK430- they are supereasy, just superheavy, and roll like mad- doesn't give driver much confidence...but REALLY EASY to initiate

You can drift scooters, but very VERY slowly and in the snow- and using your feet to support...

All I can say is unless your on a track, don't do a side (handbrake enduced) drift- unless your in a stolen car and don't care whats gonna happen to it...power over and accelerate off are the easiest and safest to pull off...
