      It’s certainly not a luxury sports car, but in the current state of things, I’d say all sports cars are expense as they’re rarely owned or operated as a primary daily drive vehicle. Owning a second car for fun certainly sounds expensive to me.

          A sports car is a car intended to be used for sporting purposes, like a sporting rifle. The exact sport doesn’t need to be specified, because you can use it for several different kinds of sport.

          Motorsport. If break dance can be a sport why not this?

          What term would you want to use for a fast, light, high performance vehicle instead?
