The first American sports car is widely considered to be the 1914 Vauxhall 25-hp 'Prince Henry' Sports Torpedo, but more commonly recognized is the 1927 Chrysler 75. However, the 1953 Chevrolet Corvette is often hailed as the quintessential American sports car, marking the beginning of a new era in American automotive design and performance. Its introduction established a lasting legacy for American sports cars.
The very first true American Sports Car was the 1949 Crosley Hotshot. http://boyslife.org/features/20899/the-16-worst-cars-in-history/attachment/4hotshotweb-2/
Z01 is a Corvette. American sports car..
The term Sports Car means different things to different people. The only true American sports car priced for the average person is the Chevy Corvette. There are some other exotic sports cars built here but they are very expensive.
I would say the 1953 corvette #003. The first and second models, of the first production year, were reportedly destroyed.
First of all i dont think there is such a thing as a ''true American sports car'', you might mean American Muscle Car, cause Americans never where good at bulding sportscars. -------------------------------------------- Anyways in my opinion. - Best muscle car: 1) Ford Mustang. 2) Chevrolet Chevelle SS. 3) Dodge Charger. ------------------------------------------ - Best sports car: 1) Ford GTX1. 2) Dodge Viper. 3) Chevrolet Corvette ZR1.
The Glasspar G2 was a sports car body first manufactured by Bill Tritt in 1949. It is no longer built today. It was the first production all-fiberglass sports car body built by an American fiberglass manufacturer.
Chevrolet Corvette, no question!

Yes, the corvette is made in bowling green Kentucky only. It is a true sports car, as a true sports car is only a two seater
Vauxhall Motors
Brothers Frank and Charles Duryea were the first to make an American car in 1893. But as far as who had the first American car I don't know.
