But will it drifito? 

"But will it drifito?" is the first thing a Japanese automotive enthusiast (Japanese person who likes Japanese cars) asks when presented with a foreign car. This byword is meant by the speaker to inquire whether the car (or other vehicle) in question will drift, distorting the word into "drifito".
