A Sports Car - General Discussion

HybridSeal · 29-11-2009, 13:06

Do you own a sports car or a family hatchback?

Would you like to own a sports car?

Do you think only men may drive a sports car?

Would you play more sports like cricket if you owned a sports car?

I think the 'sport' part of the name refers to motor sport, not to ball games.

I own a car that's kind of both. I'm a man, but I understand that women often drive powerful cars too.

I'm a man and I drive a "sports" car in the tradition of the traditional British Sports Car, i.e. front engined, rear wheel drive, 2 seats, lightweight, convertible with a manual gearbox.

Maybe more pertinent to your question, are people who own Sports Utility Vehicles (SUVs) more likely to utilise cricket bats (or baseball bats) - probably if their SUV is black, has blacked out windows and very large shiny wheels.

Well it has the word 'sport' in the model designation.

4 wheel drive, and a body-shape that falls somewhere between hatchback and estate.
With a 2 litre boxer engine it's no slouch - but a long way from what I would call 'sporty'.

im a man and i drive a sports car

i am 24 and drive a clk 09 kompressor, always been my dream to own a sports car so chuffed to own it. I used to drive around in a family car - vauxhall vectra but traded it in for a sportier model

I dont really play any more sports since owning the car to be honest. Actually I tend to do less excercise, I want to drive everywhere now

Agree. Anything else is not a sports car.
