RandomBlackGamer's video: Why Drift Downgraded His Alt Mode in Transformers 5

Why Drift Downgraded His Alt Mode in Transformers 5. Drift's inclusion in the Bayverse canon has to be 1 of the coolest yet confusing entries. Fans absolutely loved the fact that he's not too far off from his comic book counterpart. He features swords and lives by the samurai way of bushido. But there are some creative decisions that left us scratching our heads. Such as his choice of vehicles. Since the character is clearly supposed to look Japanese. You'd assume he'd have a Japanese car mode that specializing in drifting. Instead he was given a Bugatti. Which is French. But despite this decision fans grew to accept this choice. But this didn't last long as his alt mode was downgraded to a Mercedes AMG. You ask why? Because the Bugatti was extremely expensive. At the time there was only 2 of them available in the world in that color. And Paramount had to be extremely careful with them. Which Bay didn't think was worth the headache. Not to mention they could sell more toys of his new look.
