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 !!!!

I'd say the 2000GT for the fact that most automotive purists see it as the ONLY true sportscar to come out of japan until the past 15 years or so...

I disagree because you and I, and about four other people on here are the only ones that know what a 2000GT is.

I know, actually I have known for quite some time.
