Tokyo Drift Nissan for Sale in the UK
Here’s a riddle: what’s black and gray, can perform a drift up a parking garage ramp, and is inexplicably on sale in the UK?

Of course, according to Edmunds, there were actually 11 copies built of that car, with only two sporting the twin turbochargers:
In any case, the car is fitted with a Veilside Version 3 Wide Bodykit, an APS twin turbocharged engine, a Nismo twin plate clutch, and a Nismo two-way differential. That’s a recipe for a car engineered for drifting, with a boosted power of 475 hp and 420 lb-ft of torque. The sales listing says that the current owners can return it “to a more standard specification if preferred.”
The 350Z is on sale for £149,995, or $233,869.20 here in the states.
