Have you ever witnessed a 4 wheel burnout?

Does it count if it was in the snow?

What does the term sports car mean in the US? I just can't imagine how somebody could say that Japan has never produced a sports car.

Datsun 240Z
Mazda MX-5 (Miata), RX-7 RX-3, etc etc
Subaru SVX (more of a luxury tourer i guess)
Toyota MR2, Supra
Honda CRX, S2000
Mitisubishi (hmm can't think of any here, perhaps the lancer 1600GSR... not really a true sports car thou)

What was the Holden that was coming to the US? Was it the monaro? BTW australia != Asia. Holden is closer to a US automaker than a Asian automaker, given that it is owned by GM. Guess you were just categorising it as an import. But then European cars are imports too.
