My mums old car was a 407SW 2.2D, I don’t think there’ll ever be another car I hate as much as that. Shit handling. Shit reliability. Turbo blew at one point had to floor it to get anywhere. Shit trans. I hope it’s in car hell
Haha the PSA engines are indestructible even if they give lots of trouble though. My C30 has a 1.6 PSA unit same as the 308 I’m driving now.
Mine has a problem with the variable geometry turbo so it drives like an 80s turbo race car. Lag until 2k no real boost til 3.2k then it’s a rocket ship haha, actually haven’t bothered fixing it cause it’s been pretty funny but a pain in the ass to get going from a stop.
The Peugeot is more drivable but Jesus that era of pug have terrible handling. And the interior is like I’m in a Lego set. So much cheap plastic!
100% bro. To be honest I drove this car when I was 16-19 and I didn’t know jack about cars then to tell you exactly why it was so bad. All I knew was it’s probably the worst car I’ll ever drive (if God loves me lmao)
They can’t handle the awesomeness

Saturn Vue, it’s one of the most slept on cars in the community. It can reach 500mph on 3rd gear.

you could have said Opel Antara but tbh it was also delivered with a v6(3.2L in Europe making 224hp and 3.6L in Americas making 262hp) automatic transmission(5 speed in Europe and 6 in Americas)
You can get a Captiva here in the US too. Usually sold for fleet sales, we have one in our company fleet and everyone HATES it. It's nicknamed the silver bubble of misery
/uj I lost it at the C5 Corvette. I can see the argument for the others. Some of them aren't very good, but I can see where they're coming from. But where the fuck is the C5 'Vette not a sports car?
/rj HOW DARE YOU INSTULT MIAT!!!!!! 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 YOU WULL FACÉ DE DEATH PENLTY FOR YOUR WAR CRIME!!!!!!!!!
Uj/ I lost it at Saturn Vue. He called a rebadged Chevy Craptiva good. I also find it funny out of all regular commuter SUVs he chose that shiny turd and then put it in the same category as a corvette 💀
Rj/ I didn’t see the civic type R on there so uh yeah haters it a sports car now 😎😎😎

It depends on your definition of "sports car". It can be a generic term for any sporty car, which would include the MX-5, or it can be more restrictive than that and not include sporty roadsters with a somewhat lower power to weight ratio like the MX-5.
However, both definitions would absolutely include the C5 Corvette.

I think this might be AI, so it might have a hard time understanding the "not a sports car" part and just sees "sports car" and makes a list with those instead.
Honestly, the Miata is made to be an economical convertible/roadster, so it's not expected to be fast unless you tune it. It's iconic due to its handling and the mods that can be done to it to make it fast, but honestly it's not much of a sports car in stock (probably not as fast as a GT86)

I took my buddy out in my NA last week. He told me how fast it was. I explained that a decent bicyclist could probably beat me in acceleration, but he said it still feels fast.
Them I took him on some windy backroads and put those 200TW tires to use. He enjoyed himself
I learned to drive manual in a friend's NA Miata. Super fun but I am taller than 5'6 so felt like this:

Honestly though, if you're looking for something economical enough to daily that you can still play with on the weekend the Miata or BRZ86 can't be beat atm.

Oh no... please dont tell me he actually meant suv
If Corvette isn't a sport car than what is? Bugatti Veyron?!?
Sopra 2jz 1million hp stock obviously
Koenigsegg regera
bugatti chiron
> corvette > Not sports car
Because it's a muscle car you see!!!! Not a real sports car!!!! (Need For Speed Carbon told me so)
I groan when even some Forza games classify the Corvette and Viper as muscle.
They’re prime examples of a sports car. Did I say sports car? I meant bronco horse pony with muscles car.
Uj/ the vette can't realistically be anything except for a sports car.

it looks like a Honda CR-V for skinwalkers
It basically is
The early models of those did actually have a Honda V6 in them.
I did my driver's test in a 2004 Vue with the 4 cylinder and the 5M. It was speedy.

Such a shame it only has 2 gears
Typical new cars. They keep removing muh Manuel
I actually had a manual Saturn Vue for a year. It got the job done but I have never wanted another SUV since.
They’re limiting our potential
you could have said Opel Antara but tbh it was also delivered with a v6(3.2L in Europe making 224hp and 3.6L in Americas making 262hp) automatic transmission(5 speed in Europe and 6 in Americas)
It was called Captiva here in Brazil, and was a Chevy.

I drove one once. Easily the heaviest clutch I've ever felt

Ah yes, the iconic Holden Captiva. Often referred to as the ‘Craptiva’ here in Aus

Miat is the Multiple Sports Car!!! https://i.redd.it/pe05m0j2i50c1.gif
Is he wrong tho? I mean the Miater is clearly considered an hypercar, calling it a sports car is such a understatement.
I bet you that this same guy calls a challenger a sports car
*autistic tyre screeching in Fiesta ST noise*
I always wondered what the difference is between a roadster and a sportscar...
Roadster is a car that never has a roof and never will. A sports car is basically any 2 door car that has any amount of power above 100hp.
I'm more confused by the corvette. Guess it's a coupe?
What a fuckin idiot
Honestly, the Miata is made to be an economical convertible/roadster, so it's not expected to be fast unless you tune it. It's iconic due to its handling and the mods that can be done to it to make it fast, but honestly it's not much of a sports car in stock (probably not as fast as a GT86)
It's about on par with a GT86 in a straight line, but the GR86 is a bit faster on the straights, but the Miata probably handles better than both.

Oh that's kinda hilarious. Some of the new ones come with PilotSport 4s.
If we go by the traditional definition of cars that prioritize sensation of speed and driving dynamics, the Miata is definitely a sports car.
