    What defines a sportscar? The definition of a sport bike is the RPM's it runs, my Triumph Daytona 955i was considered a sport touring bike because it redlined at 10,500, it would still run a 10.8 second quarter in stock form and out-handle most sport bikes.

    Is it the G-forces in a 60 mph slalom that defines a sports car or it's power to weight ratio? Just having two doors isn't an arguement because there's plenty of overweight coupes out...normally given the title "sport coupe".

    The Integra Type-R is definitely, without a doubt, a race worthy front wheel drive... with the proper tires anyways. Normally FF cars are given the name sport compact, there is no definite answer.
