Fast is great but, I can't bring myself to calling a FWD car a "Sports Car". Going fast with torque steer is just not very refined. What sold me on my Miata was the fact that it was a true "Sports Car". Balance is very important to me when it comes to cars. My 1991 FMII is way more balanced that my friends Turbo Neon. And Fast and Topless beats just Fast any day.
