Where exactly does one draw the line between a sports/driver's car, and a car with a lot of power that still doesn't belong on the track?

At first I thought "sports cars + compact sedans/coupes" but there are a lot of cars that straddle that line, and some GT cars that do plenty fine at track days.

The germans are an easy example of my question: Where do you draw the line between track-day star, and luxo-cruiser? S5? S6? S7? S8?

M3? M5?

C AMG?, E AMG, CLS AMG? etc.

That's called a muscle car.

I'll tell you right now. No Mercedes or BMW belong on a track ever.

I believe the term is GT car

Interesting.

A sports car needs to be purpose built (No M or AMG cars), low slung, 2 doors, sporting intent, good handling and fun. That's how I define a sports car.

It's stupid to classify them into groups anyways when a 4 door econobox based car is the fastest car in time attack.

One doesn't. The distinction is entirely arbitrary.
