ok guys what is the quintessential japanese sports car ?
now this is not asking for some obsqure car, i want to know what car even your mum or girl friend would recognise as jap,,,,, (sorry ladies i know some of you on this site know more than i might) e.g i think a st 205 is, but jo public has no idea even who makes the car !!!!!! and i know professional drivers that don't know what a skyline or RX7 look like !!!! -------------------- ![]() Life is for living, and you don't get a second chance Take care now !! |

I would say for the average person or mom or girlfriend or whatever their definition of a Japanese sports car is like an Integra lol. A girl I work with thinks her Civic is hot stuff. My fiance luckily knows better than that and at least saves her oo's and aahh's for NSX's and Supras.
As for the general public in the USA right now I would say the Skyline (thanks to fast and furious and Need for Speed games). I honestly don't know why the Skyline is idolized so much, I mean sure it's nice but there are so many better cars out there. -------------------- 1999 Celica GT
