Nothing beats it!

I love how you can go to different maps and play in different courses. It is fun. The graphics are pretty good, and there are no ads. NONE! It js the best game ever. Buy it for high thrills and boredom killing. All the offers are at a good price, and won’t get you bankrupt in the first day of playing. The best part is playing with an ai to challenge your best score on a race, along with online play too. This game is too good! The only problem is that the games uses the metric system for everything except for car speed when playing can be miles per hour. I’m not good with imperial to metric conversions, so if I could change that, that would be great! For example, the cars weight is kilograms not pounds, and speed is kilometers per hour not miles per hour for fastest drift speed. Other than that, I have no complaints!

CarX

Absolutely amazing game, truly love the attention to detail when it comes to the cars. The upgrades are better than any other car game that I’ve played. I play this on PC but recently got it on mobile and can say its great. Mobile theres a lot of ads but even mobile game has it. Only things I’d like on the game is more attention to detail in painting and some upgrades. Such as gutting interiors, custom steering wheel letterings, and maybe even for that extra detail is damage to cars like fender rub and dents. Love the game cause the developers support mods (PC) and they listen to the community. Another thing which I know takes time, is more big body VIP cars. People like to host more than drift meets like car meets, and people put some serious time into paint and building their cars. So I think some cars that a lot of people will enjoy is
Lexus LS400 & or LS430
Nissan Cima/Infiniti q45 (I own irl & love)
Lexus GS300
Honda Prelude (1st or 2nd gen)
MK3-4 Golf/Gti
BMW 740LI (e38)
EK Honda Civic
Infiniti G37
NB Miata
Nissan President

I think tons of people will love to build these cars up including drifting, car meets, cruises, and others. Much love to the developers!

Fantastic game!

This is my all time favorite game on my phone. I downloaded it like ten years ago, destroyed with it and forgot about it over the years until recently. Now if it would connect with my Facebook maybe I could get my money and cars back but it’s coming back to me slowly through playing it again. My only concern is that for some reason I click sign on Facebook and it says it’s not available for this app. Please please fix that! I had sooooo much money. And now I don’t know how to collect the x1x2x3x4x5 drift points. It always keeps me at the same exact score now. Before I’d get like 150k drift points per run, now my highest is like 6k. Anybody know what’s up with that? I don’t wipe out, make gorgeous shreds throughout the entire courses paths and still my highest was like 6k now. Someone help me learn why my dp’s aren’t landing in multiples anymore. 😭😭😭😭😭😭

This is amazing just needs a little touch

Car x drift racing is amazing. This game brings drifting to another level just wish the developers updated the game because it’s still a great name. They should add online rooms to this as well but without using gas to join a lobby and also more modifications for cars to make it as realistic as possible. This a a great game hopefully you developers see this and hopefully make the changes. I love this game I’ve played it for years and still trying to get better at it😁. I know there is a Car X 2 but it’s not the same I prefer this one to have online rooms and events and more. Anyways the Car X 2 is fun in all but the gasoline system it kinda a let down for me. That’s why I play this game more. Thank you for making a game that I can play all I want.

CAR DAMAGE EFFECTS

LOVE EVERYTHING SO FAR!! The new updates have been amazing, seatbelts, color change of lights, seats, shift knob etc! Awesome!
However I would love if the cars would take damage as if we were drifting in reality(I know it’s a game) but for the bumpers, mirrors,to fall off or take scratches and dings or banging doors, and have multiple outcomes not the same noticeable marks each time you know?
It would be rad to have especially on a multiplayer run, you should make it so that the car isn’t ghost and we can actually have the option to physically crash into if we get too close on a tandem or whatever have you!

As for the wheels! Great job adding new 90s wheels to the tribe! I love them! I stay static on some 15’s on my 240 irl! So that’s rad I can make my own car on the game! Keep it up!

Help! Game will not load past 75%!!!

Hello Car-X gents! Still giving you a 5 star rating due to the hours and hours I’ve invested into the game. Since Car-X 2 has come out, I still follow up with the original for about an hour however, the last few weeks the game will not load past 75%. It just continues to try an load but is unsuccessful in completing the task. You guys have always been fantastic with communication not only with myself but the rest of your consumers throughout the life of Car-X (original). Figured I would take shot at you guys possibly seeing this review and take a look at the game or provide a update patch to get us going again. Again, thanks for all the hard work put into this version, it’s greatly appreciated and sought after even though #2 is out and even more incredible! Hope this reaches you fellas....if not, we’ll...I guess it’s onto the newest version as a “experienced newbie”. Will take some time before I am competitive as I would like to be. Either way, I hope Car-X2 lines your pockets in gold my friends...it is honestly a work of art! Here, here! Thanks again guys...Tygart511

Best game to me as a kid

There are a lot of games but this one stands out. The graphics are spot on and it’s not one of those games that every race there is an ad. Also as a 13 year old boy this game isn’t like the other games it very addictive and I like it doesn’t use “energy” so you don’t have to wait so you have enough “energy” to play this game is awesome I would just like that some more of the cooler cars would have prices and so you didn’t have play events but that’s just one minor inconvenience all in all this game is very good and would recommend to everyone

CarX Drift Racing

Ok. Lemme say this. Graphics-✅, Updates-🤷‍♂️,Game quality-✅, Car steering and going-❌,Most of the game✅! I’ve been playing the game for 2 years. I download it every time I get a new phone or something. One of the first games I ever downloaded on my 1st ever phone! However I had to delete the game because, I keep getting spammed( and I mean SPAMMED) notifications like no tomorrow. I reset my phone even and it kept going off like crazy!! Very annoying ❌🤔
I deleted the app due to this but other then that, Game is decent and fun. Here’s some other random junk I’m gonna put that y’all can ignore:⤵️ ok so my car always glitches but it’s still ok. Free play option maybe? 😮 The online chat never worked kinda?? Maps and cars are to hard to get (I think, idk I forgot) The game really is decent and is worth a shot. Anyways thanks for reading( Even tho I bet nobody on this earth is gonna find this and read it) and I drift ya later! Catch me on track! CYAAaaaaa👋 🚗💨 *Insert drifting sound effect here*

Gameplay declining?

Great game, but it seemed like I was driving worse as I got into higher levels during multiplayer. My car, even though it was very well suited for my style, seemed to have significantly less power than when I played other modes. It was like the game was making me mess up. The first few times I thought I was just messing up, but when I noticed I would press the handbrake/gas and there was a noticeable lag, I knew something wasn’t right. I kept playing though but it’s been about two weeks and now I’m getting scores that are consistently getting worse because of it. I’m now scoring about half what I was and I’m over it. Time to move on to something else.

Friend feature??

This is easily the best racing or more specifically drifting game. There’s almost nothing wrong with it, amazing graphics, the physics feel great, customization is admirable, the events helps get you currency to get more cars but there’s still a perfect blend of grinding to get cash, and the multiplayer is second to none. The game is great, and I’ve shared it with my friends and we’ve even battled in the league. Yet, it’s just not the same as being on the same track, throwing tandems with them. The game would be perfect if there was a friend list of some sort and a way to play with them. The game would have a new reason to play it, because I can literally slide around with my guys! Thank you allowing me to voice my opinion!!

Best game ever!

I love CarX drift racing so much! I have played this game since it came out. No lie. I remember when it first came to the App Store.... the phone I had at the time when it got releases couldn’t run CarX so I went and bought a brand new iPhone just so I knew that I could play it. This game has came a long ways and I love what you guys have done with it. By far the best car game/drifting game on mobile! I would really like to see some customization to the cars like changing/taking off hoods, different bumpers, exhaust, and stuff like that but other than that the game is amazing! The physiatrist amazing! And the graphics are amazing! 10/10 all day everyday! Much respect and love for you guys, and thank you so much for this amazing mobile game! 🙌🏼💯❤️🙏🏼

Best mobile racing game.

I love this game. While the drift steering physics are exactly opposite (with steering assist on) the driving experience is phenomenal. Steering assist off is way too difficult... doesn’t feel like driving because of the short ratio of the wheel turning with your finger movement (aka it’s too sensitive or not sensitive enough - TOO precise to use successfully on mobile, at least for me). My main complaint lies in the crashing and loading, especially in multiplayer. Sometimes you’ll start a race, then it will spontaneously restart, using two more of your fuel credits. Essentially, you will run out of fuel twice as fast whenever it crashes like this. I refuse to spend real money on fuel if it will be wasted like this: fix the crashing and you’ll have a happy customer!

I’ve never written a review before but this game is bad so I decided to write this.

This game has the potential to be really fun. It allows you to customize your controls the way you want and basically just drift. BUT the game mechanics are TERRIBLY unrealistic. I personally have a Subaru BRZ and drift / do doughnuts it real life, but this game is NOTHING like real life. The steering is incredibly unresponsive. Also, the game has an insane amount of auto-steer so you don’t even drive the car at all, the game does all the drifting for you. You can turn this off, but it does not change the fact that the game does all the drifting! If your really ignorant and have no idea how to control a car, than you will like this game. If you have ever driven a car before and actually want to control it like a real car, do NOT download this game. Save yourself from getting extremely frustrated like I did.

I’ve been here since the blue gtr days

This game is by far my most favorite mobile game I really love it. I wish you guys would add superchargers for v8s, engine swaps, Body kits, Porsche’s or anything rear/ mid engine, corvettes, ferraris or just more super cars, road Atlanta would also be sick asf. But overall this game is so fun to play I haven’t spent any money on it so you don’t have to pay to play even though it would make it easier. I just enjoy playing it so much that I’ve made enough money to buy probably about 20 of the thirty cars I really just don’t have the ones you have to unlock by being super good or the one that cost insane amounts. The last expensive one I saved for was the mustang gt350r which was totally worth it. I mean this game is just so perfect already so anything I say is really just nit picking

Best drift game for mobile.. PERIOD!

Time for another review with latest update. Firstly I must say that only true car fanatics should program car games because your passion for the sport of drift shows through in each rendition of the game. The vehicles you add are legendary in their own respect. Thank you for adding the Shinobi! I’m into the classic imports and this is an often under appreciated vehicle. With the praises out of the way.. when can we expect body modifications on the iOS platform?? Half, if not more, of the fun is the actual building and customization of the car. Also, I understand vendors not wanting their cars smashed up in games, but you were very clever to rename every car to avoid copyright. With that, why not add damage.. not only cosmetic but damage that effects performance. This forces the player to hone their skills further than just slam bang style of racing. With option to turn it on and off of course. With that, I can’t say enough in regards to the gameplay, realism, sounds and the overall beauty of this game. I know it’s a long review but this game deserves it.

Been playing since 2015

Been playing since 2015 i believe. i’ve seen all the cars change, seen the progress of the game. i couldn’t walk for about three months so i had an immense time to play. spent a good amount of money in this game also lol. amazing game and will never get played out as it’s so real and smooth. if there’s anything i can input , its more tracks , and more ways to modify your vehicle. once that’s dope, this will be the best mobile racing video game and will be unmatched. also, i hate the wing and kit on the 180sx , rather the previous or a Type X kit. also, why is the E30 spoiler only black?

Very well made

If you aren’t all about cars then you can disable some of the features to make a more arcade like game, if you are into the cars inner workings you can change the settings to have different gear modes, throttle sensitivity, break sensitivity, this game has a lot of substance for a mobile app, it isn’t a requirement to spend money and the overall feel of each car is unique, this game is very well made. The only complaint I have is the lack of cosmetics and multiplayer opportunities, I would love to see a racing competition against other players of some sort of improved cosmetics, like wings or areo kits, ect. As a casual player this game doesn’t have any noticeable problems and has enticed me to spend money, although I have spent money on the game I don’t feel like it is necessary as many of the in game items are easily attainable if you put the time into it. The better reason I have spent money is solely due to the fact that I feel the producers deserve the support for such a well made game.

Something has sent ruined this game

I don’t know what has been done to this game lately, but the cars have become unpredictable pieces of sh!+. I’m trying to drive my “Loki 4M storm” with the ultimate setup, but it just spins out or drives into the wall. I have followed the instructions of a pro for drift setup so I know it’s not my setup. I’m using steer assist (because steer assist off is stupid impossible to use). There used to be a day when I could ride at around 37 to 40 degrees sideways and not spin out, now I’m lucky to see 33 degrees, if that. I think the focus should be on creating a more formula drift feeling to the game and not as much on “realistic” handling, because it’s too late to go all realistic now. Still my go to game, but things have changed.

Glitchy and and ads came back after paying

I have had this game literally since it came out, I’ve been playing it for years watching the progression of the game, it is so much fun and by far the best drifting game on mobile, period. BUT lately the game has been super glitchy and I’ve had to reinstall it twice, the third time I had to reset my phone completely to get it to work (reinstall IOS and set up phone) well now I get adds and I’ve spent nearly $50 bucks on this game. I’m not happy 😑 the names of the maps have this format [broken_fraaking_game_map_drift]. I’ve tried restoring purchases but I still get ads. Please fix the game.
