Do you think the Mazda Miata/Eunos Roadster is a sports car?

If you don't think so, explain why.

If you do, explain why.

Also I'm talking about all generations of the Miata/Mx-5, from 1990-2017.

>There's another, even more important, reason to describe cars using proper and appropriate names, but we'll come back to that in a moment. Let's return to the question: "What is a sports car?" In the postwar era, a "sports car" was any car that seated two, had a soft top, and could be used for competition. Thus, the Sports Car Club of America. An MG-TC was a sports car, as was an XK-120 or a Jowett Jupiter.
