BS.. a Miata is a sportscar.. pricetag has nothing to do with it. a 240Z when it was released was a sportscar, price means nothing.

hey einstein, who's callin what a sports car? i said that those stats put it above econobox status by default, not that it automatically made it a sports car. BMW 318's cost around 30K and they sure as hell aren't sports cars.

jeez.. its silly to say that just ANY RWD car is a sportscar, because thats hardly the case.

wow, then it sure is a good thing i didn't say that in any way at all. my statement was about what usually disqualified a car as being an econobox.

i will always believe that there is and never will be any such thing as a FWD sports car BUT RWD doesn't automatically qualify it as having that status. also, just because a car isn't an econobox doesn't make it a sports car:

trucks
sport trucks
sport sedans
roadsters
coupes
hatchbacks
convertables

see? lots of variation in there, hotshot. not all VW's are econoboxes. what about that W12 VW that's out (or comin out)? that suckers pretty anti-economied out the yin-yang.

paying attention doesn't cost anything and this converstation isn't about quantum theory. i don't think it's too much to ask that you read what i write properly and try to keep up.

p.s. the miata costs about the same as a base mustang GT which is a sports car.
