Hey guys, help me settle an on going argument with my friends at work. What
exactly is a sports car? Is the European definition different from the
American one?
I always thought a sports car should meet the following criteria:
1. Positively must not have a back seat.
2. Must be low to the ground. (leaves out small sport-utilities)
3. Must have better than average handling.
4. Must have a manual transmission.
Can a true sports car have a hard top? front wheel drive? power steering?
I hear some hardcore Brits won't even allow heaters or wind-up windows.
Let the debate begin.
