Automotive journalists still quote it as one. They are more qualified at this than you, so we will go with that.
But you are right, they should probably just stick to calling it a sports coupe or German muscle car since it basically out performs all of the Pony cars at just about every...
Why the desire for the TR3160? It won't hold the power the MT82 holds. Yes, I said what I said. Neither are great transmissions, but the MT82 holds the power better and at higher rpm.
