I am sure it has more than enough torque to do some real drifting and the suspension looked like it would handle it. Just thought I would share. I know its no D1 drift competition car but still cool to see this large luxury car tossed around

I must say WOW. And I think you might be correct about it being a 600. Cant really see what the trunk says but the front and rear badges have blue around the L. Signs of a hybrid.
