Yep... tell that to the thousands of people who race mazdas every weekend... you're definition of a sports car is off base.

S2000s and Miatas are two of the purest sports car produced in a LONG time.

That all sounds great. But the Thunderbird just needs to die. The retro Tbird was a huge fail and the name seems tainted now.

i think ford has the potential to do it..obviously
but they've never had something wuite like the vette and that poses a huge risk for them..that quite frankly..right now isnt the best time to risk a chance like that
it could be a huge success or a huge bust
