S2000s can be fun to drift, but I prefer the weight more up in the front for a drifter - it's still fun nonetheless. I used to own a USDM S13, that drifted really well. My AE86 was even better; it responded to my controlling faster in general, but the S13 just seemed to be more graceful to me...

I don't know what you consider "normally" but if you watch any car at speed on a track whether it be a F1, CART, IRL and specially NASCAR every car drifts in a corner to a certain degree.

i thought a proper wheel base was needed to drift with ease. power helps but I find shortwheel base cars like ours don't want to "stay" in a drift like say... a camaro?

I'm sure you realize that this thread died back sometime in 2003.

Whats wrong with bumping a thread instead of reposting shit 10-15-20x? Not trying to be a smartass, but I like thread bumps - makes more sense and keeps the search feature functional and accurate.
