Sportscar (per Wikipedia) "A sports car is a small, usually two seat, two door automobile designed for high speed driving and maneuverability. Sports cars can be either spartan or luxurious, but good handling, minimum weight, and high performance are requisite." I think most car enthusiasts would agree with that, but many would also say that it must be rear-wheel drive. As for that dash, I can't think of a single manufacturer or model that has those buttons on either side of the instrument cluster. |

That's quite funny...I just happened to be watching the TG cheap Alfas challenge today and noticed that the dash on one of them was very similar to this one. Then I realised Alfa had already been guessed. ;D

Oh goody, I get to put up another picture! This is a car that I was fortunate enough to test drive several months ago, but sadly, do not own. It is, by anyone's definition, a sports car. (Sorry the pic isn't of better quality.)  |
