Readily available is KE70 with 4AGE. Roughly starts from RM7500-RM20K. Depending on condition. Ideal car is Nissan Cefiro A31 with RM20DET or 180SX. But 180SX are expensive.

For learner i do not actually encourage small platform cars like KE70 or AE86. That car actually has steep learning curve. The Cefiro longer wheelbase is actually more forgiving. Longer wheelbase start drifting slower and allows you to catch the drift more easily. Shorter wheelbase will swing too fast and you will have react quicker to catch the drift.

If cost is a concern, Ke70 is the way to go as it is much more cheaper to maintain and fix overall. Most drift cars are "bangers". If you want the ride to look nice and drift, the sport isn't exactly for you. Cable ties, hammers, cut off steel brackets, cheap tires will be your best friend when you start drifting. If you do start with KE70, start with really cheap used tires and get a feel of the car then move up the scale to better tires. By then you have the choice to move up to cars with bigger power. Some people start with grippy tires and when they fail to understand why they have a hard time holding the drift, they give up drifting.
