Re: Sports sedans, ad infinitum...

Correct me if I'm wrong, but when I went to school (a long time ago) a sedan
was a car with 4 doors and a trunk, sorta kinda like an Alfa 164. You can
hardly say that Sir Alec's little wonder has 4 doors, nor a trunk, a small
luggage compartment in the back, yes. But I do beleive that it depends on
how you define a sedan, how do you define a sedan?
