I agree with most on FWD is not a sports car. I will give the Type-R's and what not the title of "Sporty", but again not a true sports car. Its embarrassing when you see someone with a Neon or Saturn trying so hard to be one. I even question someone when they buy a FWD car, as to how true of a gear head they are.

With that being said, I believe some 4cyl, AWD and 4 door cars can be sports cars. I have an Evo and that is 4-door AWD 4cyl and I would say that is a sports car. I have had quite a few STi's and again I challenge someone to say thats not a sports-car.

Now with my BMW, it is RWD, 2 door and I-6 Twin Turbo with roughly 400HP. But as it is Steptronic and mainly luxury I wouldn't really call it a Sports Car.
