Yep, I own an M5 so that's half the point for me! I'm confident with oversteer but would like to really master it.

You don't need a rear wheel drive car at all.

We've taken the Imprezas and the Evos to drift days at Oulton- although, granted, there is a fair bit of technique involved to drift a 4wd car properly (as opposed to just getting a little bit out of shape).

do you not need an impreza with dccd so you have more power at rear wheels or can you still do it with uk turbo?

its easier with adjustable centre diff, and much more controllable, but you can do it in a I'm car under the right circumstances with the right technique
