_A sports car is a term used to describe a class of automobile. The exact definition varies, [1] but generally it is used to refer to a low to ground, light weight vehicle with a powerful engine. Most vehicles referred to as sports cars are rear-wheel drive, have two seats, two doors, and are designed for more precise handling, acceleration, and aesthetics. A sports car’s dominant considerations can be superior road handling, braking, maneuverability, low weight, and high power, rather than passenger space, comfort, and fuel economy._ And Wiki never told a lie :lol ---

hahah and if anyone went and looked it up on wiki after i mentioned it you would see this too… _A car may be a sporting automobile without being a sports car. Performance modifications of regular, production cars, such as **sport compacts** , sports sedans, muscle cars, hot hatches and the like, generally are not considered sports cars, yet share traits common to sports cars. They are sometimes called “sports cars” for marketing purposes for increased advertising and promotional purposes.[3] Performance cars of all configurations are grouped as Sports and Grand tourer cars, or, occasionally, as performance cars._ so I am still nutrally biased. :stfu ---

This car is supposed to come to the US as an '09 model and it will be rocking the Acura badging. Replacing the RSX and RSX Type-S, it is going to be the CSX and CSX Type-S here in the US. ---
