Drift I guess you didn't see the part where I said I know you can spend money on tuning any car and make it as fast as a Ferrari or a Lamborghini but that still doesn't make it a Supercar. The Miura is a supercar and can now be beaten by a Vauxhall Monaro for £40k, does that make the Monaro a supercar, no chance!
And noone belittles the JDM crowd apart from usually in reply to the JDM followers as you said, and of course if you like JDM you are going to look at the Z-tune rather than the F40, that's the way you're inclined but stick those 2 in a city center where there is all kinds of people and the F40 will be the one being looked at and having it's pictures taken more of.
Hybrid is right, the term is a strange and difficult one to give out but one things for sure it's easy to tell what doesn't deserve the title and unfortunately that is most JDM, hell even most US and European cars don't deserve it either.
Oh and RB, imo I would say the new Nissan GT-R is not a supercar, it's again a sportscar in the same bracket as the F430, Z06, Gallardo, 997 turbo etc...
@macd: The Evo FQ is not a factory model or it wasn't when it was originally released, it's heavily tuned by UK specialists Ralliart. As far as I know you can't just goto a Mitsubishi dealer and just order one.
