I remember a big debate a while back about the Celica being a sports car, well it's considered a Japanese sports car by the Wikipedia. Either way it's opinion but IMO it is seeing as it's somewhat light, good maneuverability, good looks, and can have good performance.

The only reason some people wont consider a Z06 exptic is because it's American, go to Germany and see how many Z06's you find, the Z06 is either an exotic or an exotic killer. The Viper is classified as an exotic and in the area I live in (pop around 10,000) I can find about 5, there's less Celica's in this area than Vipers. Point is you can't classify an exotic by production numbers and demographics, only around 800,000 RX-7s were built since 1978 but they aren't exotic, even though for a worldwide market spanning over a 20 year period that is very low. If you do want to get technical special editions aren't exactly exotics since they're based on a more widely produced base, but don't tell that to SL65 owners. It's hard to classify an exotic, it used to be a very expensive racecar for the road, but now certain exotics such as Porsche, Maserati, and even Lotus are starting to become more open so that they can sell more cars, since most of the companies had to sell to larger companies like VW, Ford, etc. I think you'll be seeing Aston Martin SUV's, Ferrari sedans, etc. come rolling of the design table and into the showroom floor (unless gas stays the same, then it'll be Ferrari compacts).
