What is a "touring car?"

[Andy Bettencourt]

Good luck with your weird builds. The NSX starts off at 3500 lbs. Think you can find 850 lbs of fat on an aluminum bodied car to trim? Only then can you start adding a cage and 200lbs driver and hope to make weight with a 2.0 engine at close to 2900 lbs.

Curb weight on a 1991 NSX is 3010lbs. Figure about 2975 with 1/2 tank of gas. Still tough to get to.

So let's do this little mental/Internet exercise: discuss the physical, objective, quantifiable characteristics that define a "sports car".

Go.
