yeah am i missing something? wtf is the auto life? are we talking auto transmissions, because i'd have to just regurgitate this sentiment here. you will be disappointed.
Sorry, let me clarify, I just meant doing anything related to cars beyond driving from A to B, whether it be tuning, track driving, etc. I just want to explore the world of cars a little bit, that's all.

I understand I look like a total newb, but that's what I am, so I'm just looking for some actual advice. So if you would be so kind as to give me a more in depth run down of why I am a fool, I would really appreciate it..

Bascially you're going to break your car learning to drift and that's going to make DDing it.......... complicated. It's not worth the hassle. Just take your budget, split it in half, and buy a cheap DD and a cheap drift car if you really want to do it.

Chances are you'll "drift" once and then realize you can't keep doing it because you don't have the funds and will give it up, many have tried and only a few have succeeded.
