500hp isn't what makes a supercar 
GT car is the most correct though..I will agree with you on that! It is a GT car. Mags have often called the Supras, zx, VR4, skyline supercars... More accurate then muscle car I think!! But a GT car is what I personally would agree with you on.

Brians over here with his 500+ awhp 3kgt. Hes probably on the boards, but he just sold it for a ls6 z06. What a shame. Well, I suppose your message board can have a nice little roadtrip to ct. There are enough of you here already, stop extending inviations.

Honda resale value it up right now.... Check out the gas prices!! I wouldn't mind finding a good CRX to drive to work
, nice stock, very dependable accord, w/ 150 v-tec hp.

In all aspects right off the dealership lot. calling a supra, skyline, 3000zx, nsx, or a 3000gt a supercar would be like calling a porsche 911 a supercar. They may be awesome sports cars, but they are no super car.

Plus, it doesnt matter what YOU think they should be called, they are all called Jap muscle, but I don't care about a wording of what to call a genre of car. I DO care about facts.
Like I said, you should reread this whole thread and you will have a better understanding (btw my vr4 is on original tranny t-case and turbos (just starting to smoke now, which is why I came, thought I might learn how to raid a junkyard for some cool ones, CHEAP and bigger than stock 9bs)
How about we just call them what they are...a 300ZX TT is a 300ZX TT is a 300ZX TT. So on and so forth.

Muscle-car to me is a V8 RWD! A couple years ago I drove a brand new Mustang GT & a new WS6 and was unimpressed. That's why I bought my VR4.

The problem is that the classifications we're trying to stick to these cars are subjective, not objective. My idea of a Supercar or a GT car may be different than somebody elses'. Since the terms we're sticking to these cars are subjective, there is always going to be contraversy and personally I think there are much better things to argue about.
That said, I believe a CRX Si is a sports car. :P
As for that momo20 guy...he really gives the new VR4 crew a bad name even though not all of them are as irrational and ignorant as him. Go toss a salad, mumblefuck.
Might I suggest that the new members get an avatar or a sig that sets them apart from each other. Posting on HMT with a low post count and no sig/avatar is like walking around in the "dark" part of town in full Klan attire. You're just asking for it.
