That guy can drift anything - and build anything - and then drift that too.
Mercedes never sold a manual CL600 AMG, so he did a transmission swap, and drifted that monster.

Kia unlikely to directly replace Stinger GT
Korean firm's sports saloon will essentially be replaced by quickest versions of the electric EV6
The Kia Stinger GT is unlikely to be replaced for a second-generation, Autocar has learned.
The Stinger GT, first launched in 2017 and recently overhauled, has been hugely successful in the transformation of Kia’s image towards making sportier-looking and more dynamically oriented models, but it has not been a big sales hit.
The baton is already being handed to the EV6 for the role in the range as a sporty flagship, as part of Kia’s wider push towards electric cars. To that end, the EV6 will be getting its own GT version next year.
When asked by Autocar at the LA motor show if the Stinger GT would be replaced, Kia design boss Karim Habib said: “The spirit of Stinger remains and will remain. I like to think that the EV6 has the genes of the GT. We’re doing to do a GT of that, and it has the Stinger in it.
“Stinger has been a transformational car, and opened a whole new perspective as to what Kia can be, sporty and a precision driving tool. EV6 is now doing similar.”
The Stinger GT will remain in Kia’s range for a while to come in the meantime, however, after its recent facelift, and is expected to be on sale until at least 2023 or 2024.

Kia Stinger GT replacement unlikely – EV6 GT rumoured as replacement
The Kia Stinger GT is a performance sedan that won the hearts of many when it was introduced to international markets since its reveal in 2017. Despite the reputation it developed, the South Korean brand may not be giving it an official replacement when its life-cycle comes to an end.
According to Autocar, the Kia Stinger GT has not been a big sales success story due to the niche market that it caters towards. As a result, it is understood that this model will be succeeded by the upcoming all-electric EV6 sedan which will be getting a GT variant next year.
Speaking to the brand’s design boss, Karim Habib at this year’s LA motor show, he said “The spirit of Stinger remains and will remain. I like to think that the EV6 has the genes of the GT. We’re doing to do a GT of that, and it has the Stinger in it.

The Kia Stinger Is Too Good - Jalopnik
Do you know that itching feeling, as fresh snow falls outside your window? The glut of possibility, your mind racing as you think of every large parking lot that might be empty right now, where you could do donuts, or figure eights, for eternity? This is what it is to drive a Kia Stinger.
