like I said definitions change, if you want a sports car and you think the Z is a sports car by the definition you posted you would have a car thats open and no way of covering it, only for racing, no AC ,no stereo, no bluetooth, you get the idea. A sports car definition is different now and I can post a internet one too.

"The Houghton Mifflin definition of the "two seat rule" seems out-of-date. Many sports cars today offer small back seats (sometimes referred to as 2+2 seating) and there is a current movement underway to increase the seating room in models long considered sports cars by most automotive experts."

Again its all subjective now as times and technologies have changed.

A GTI if its power is up there could be classified as a sports car as that seems to be the real test now, power and small size. You can hate on other cars all you want but the TTS will kick some azz and still has way more comfort than the Z and yes it cost more, but were not talking $$$$$s. Go by performance the TTS and now the TTRS is above the Z in probably all areas give or take a two and the current stang and prolly new stang if you go TTRS. And they have a back seat but are sports cars.

So 2 seat 4 seat who cares, what can they do is what its all about.
