I think it's considered a performance car.
Pontiac Firebird is a sports car. The Porsche Cayman model is a sports car.
The Firebird got its name from Slavic folklore, where the Firebird is a magical creature known for its glowing plumage and ability to grant wishes. The name was chosen by General Motors for its Pontiac sports car model, introduced in 1967, to evoke a sense of excitement and mystique. The Firebird's association with speed and performance aligns with the mythical qualities of the creature.
I am not sure of the exact rates. Since it's a 16 year old, they are considered higher risk drivers and with a sports car, the rates are sure to be a bit higher, for age and type of car.
Yes. The Pontiac G6 GT is a car that is produced by Pontiac. It is considered a sports car even though it is a compact family car. The engine is a v6 though.
Is a Pontiac Grand Prix considered a sports car? A Sports car was a car that could be raced in the Grand Prix on the weekend and used to take the kids to school during the week. Generally it has no back seat, light weight, and has the engine between the wheels for better weight distrubution. It was a track racing, street car. The Pontiac Grand Prix is 100% street car. Despite its name it is not a racing, or sports car.
The Trans Am was introduced March in 1969, and was called Trans Am after the Sports Car Club of America (SCCA) Trans-American Challenge Cup in which Pontiac wanted to compete. Pontiac originally wanted their top-end Firebird to be called the Sebring, but as it turned out, Chrysler trademarked the name first. On a side note, General Motors paid the SCCA $5 for every Trans Am sold.
"Yes, it is considered a sports car even though it is a compact car because of the engine. The engine in this car is a v6 but it has 200 horsepower, which is kind of high for a family car."
No, absolutely not. A Sports Car by definition is low slung, 2 seat, 2 door, precise handling, brisk acceleration, and great braking ability automobile. The Pontiac Sunfire meets none of the criteria of a Sports Car except it is a 2 door. The Sunfire is a clone of the Chevy Cavalier and is nothing more than a inexpensive compact car.
Pontiac Sunfires.
Camaro, Chevelle, Nova, the 409 Impala, Firebird, GTO, 442. Buick, and Caddy, were considered more "mature" or luxurious. The Vette is actually a sports car. So, 7, I guess.
