I have a fully built ft tc4 w/ brushless setup and hpi dbox it's the sickest drift car you could imagine. fast as hell reliable (shaft drive) and drifts on command .... the sickest is it will drift w/ foams

You don't really need a DRIFT car, you can set up any car to drift, but if you don't already have a rc car... HPI is a good brand.

I believe even the drift rc cars are 4 wheel drive. HPI and Tamaiya are 2 of the best companies for on road cars. I'm really looking forward to HPI's new class called true cup racer, specifically the Datsun 510 version. I love 510's!!
