My friend refers to his Honda Accord Coupe 2.0 as a "sports car"... is there - Hondapoint - Honda Forums for Civic, CRX, Accord, Prelude and S2000

any validity to this? I did a search and came up with a few more references to it as a sports car but I can't understand why.

My 1.9 turbo-diesel out-performs his in acceleration, top speed, fuel economy etc and mine is just a family car! What gives? Why is this car referred to as a sports car?

Most insurance companies classify ANY car with two doors as a sports car regardless of any actual performance factors.

My bf's race car goes from 0 to 60 mph in under 1 second. I can never figure out why anyone thinks their street car is anything other than a TURTLE!

What model is it.......that sounds a little bit like crap talking cause I just sold a 6cyl. ex and if that is what your talking about, you can tell your friend he thinks so. Unless it's an S2000 but no............

Hondas suck and none are truly sports cars lol.
