2018 Toyota Corolla IM

Papadakis Racing surprised fans with the introduction of the 2018 Rockstar Energy Drink/Nexen Tire Toyota Corolla iM, unveiling it at the start of the 2017 season with the RockstarD tribute video that paid homage to Toyota's long history in the sport of drifting. Team driver Fredric Aasbo scored three podiums in the vehicle -- including two event wins -- on the way to second overall in the championship. The vehicle ran only one competition season and was retired at the end of 2017 to make way for the team's newest Toyota build.
