  • What makes a Grand Touring Car a GT car and what makes a sports car...

    I am just curious...

    What makes a grand touring car a grand touring car (GT car) and what makes a sports car a sports car?

    What would a V6 Camaro, V6 Firebird, and/or a stang... be classified as?
    Thanks

    Well, a camaro v6 is an RS which means rally sport? I don't know what you classify those 6cyl cars as.. slow?

    GT cars are designed for long distance driving, or racing.. they are alot of the times bigger then sports cars. There are alot of different classes cars fall into and sometimes they are miss labled. I mean a mustang GT is an american muscle car not a touring car (GT). At least GM had the presence of mind to come up with SS (super sport) to classify their power cars.

    Thats what I think. (thanks grand turismo lol..)

      Being like you stated Wood, "Manufactures sometimes miss label what they classify a car"

      What would you classy a V6 Camaro/Firebird let's say my old (totaled) Camaro which was a 2001 Camaro V6?

        That was basically nasty. Most of us have respect for all F-Bodys, not just the V8's. Not quite what we're all about here on F-Body.com
