Corolla back seats are still normal.
Ever sat inside the rear of a 200SX or Supra or RX7?
Then you'll know what the "emergency seats" look like. Heck some 200SX's dont even have rear seatbelts. I really dont think you can call a 150hp car a "sports car".

Supra Rear seats http://www.supra-tech.com/images/Com...20interior.jpg
The footspace is really alot smaller than on a corolla. I can fit into the back seat of a 2 door corolla, but its helluva lot harder for me to fit into a back seat of a supra/200SX. And I'm 5'11 and about 220lb, but its the foot space that kills, I can always scoot down to fit the roof space.

The 2000+ celica gt-s is the worst for room there is an inch of clearence behind the drivers seat when i'm sitting in it better head clearence though im 6'4" and 230 lbs there is no room behind me in my car unless I force my self to sit more forward which is really uncomfortable.
I can't fit in the back of my corolla, anything smaller than a corolla I wouldn't be able to fit inside lol imagine me in a geo metro ahahhahhaah.

I'm going to have to diagree with that. I've owned a non turbo s14 silvia and I currently have 2 ae101's and the back seat in the silvia was bigger.

According to that link a ITR is a sports car, I can't find anything that excludes it.

The CTR should really fall into the hot hatch category.

Since that site list a Fiat Barchetta as an example or sports car. I have no problem calling a type R honda or 20v levin/trueno a sports car.

Ok, the best way to describe the SR5 or GTS is this:

Whenever my friends ask me why they never see SR5's or GTS's, I reply with this: Why would you buy a 2 door family car/commuter car?

They are NOT fast (faster than other cars? sure). They are not superior handling cars. Therefor,

They are NOT sports cars!
