Well, it would appear that in some poeples eyes we deffinatley do. I went down to the "Goodwood Breakfast Club" supercar sunday yesterday and out of a row of 9 of us from HJC I was the only one directed into the "supercar" parking area, the others were ushered off to other parking. I was parked with a DB9, XJ220 Couple of GT2's and an R35 and I have to admit that I had my smug face on:D. All in all, it was a good morning out. Did anyone else venture there?

That term was invented by top gear

 

Wrong.

where I come from originaly the 300 is def a supercar!

In my onw mind it is as well but most people wouldn't agree with me and just say I own an old car worthless and full of problems..

I remember when I was a doorman in a posh night club there was a fella with a testarossa (figo) and another one with a 300TT (jardel) and everyone was amazed with the 300 and actually taking more pictures of it than the ferrari.

attending will be soc, sxoc, gtir, and suprise the almera club:x:

 

FFS. :rofl:

so what about a hi powered zed like mac1's that is quicker than a few and probably cost more to build than many "supercars"

I know of 350bhp 2.0 Nova turbo beating Ferraris. Doesn't make them 'supercars'.

tbh IMO it doesnt matter whether a car is considered a supercar or not. at the end of the day being a supercar doesnt meen its a good car. a z32 is an amazing car whatever you class it as.

Good comment, agreed.:xxx:

is there a set of definative rules for being a supercar???

nope

its all personal opinion so yep to you your rusty omega is a supercar lol

Well its a Supercar to me and if 5th gear are showing it as a cheapskate alternative to a Lambo LP640....

Its a poor mans Supercar! LOL

Jeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeez, I didn't think that it would cause this much debate again. I was only trying to enter smug mode because I got let in!!!!!!! lol

Sportscar, you can't buy a super car for 3k........

Omega? I hope it's a lotus for that price ;)

 

Speaking of which, Lotus Omega's are a supercar IMHO.

 

Just saying though, Z's have hit rock bottom on price, they are to the average person, an old, expensive to run and maintain nissan, if I look on Autotrader now within 100 miles of me there are 20 and 90% are 2k and below. Obviously a tastefully modified, upgraded / restored club one, will fetch more, but you can't buy a supercar in running condition for that. Supercars are rare, Z's aren't, at least not yet.

LCs are super saloons IMO. Like the Holden HSVs and VXR8s....well, that's what I'd class them in anyway.
