What is the best new drift car?

my mum just got a six speed turbo Astra that runs on diesel. and i was so shocked at its pickup. all gears have a great acceleration speed and its much quicker then it looks. i think that perhaps older cars running on diesel would have crap acceleration. but anything built in the last few years would have to be good. also my dad has a turbo Toyota 2007 hilux and its really good for a 4wd, not sluggy at all. perfect for open road and not to bad in more populated areas.
