Am I the only one who upon seeing this went "ugh"?

There's something so unbelievably agitating about the prospect of "drifting" in general to me, so maybe that's why. But beyond that, it's an Element...drifting. It seems really weird. Then there's the 500hp. How'd that happen? I didn't notice if it said what the engine consisted of.

I couldnt picture an element drifting. Looks to top heavy.

Thank you! I haven't looked at the link, so what drivetrain does it have? It can't be FF.
