Your comments, or additions are more than welcome. |
Some of that is too restrictive as I'd say the Jaguar XJ220 was a supercar (It held the top speed record for a while) and yet has 6 cylinders and 3.5 liters displacement. These same things could be said of the Dauer 962 LM or Bugatti or Dauer EB110 (or SS) which are both supercars from my point of view. The Porsche 959 was certainly a supercar and doesn't conform to your definition either.

There are probably more examples if I took the time to look, but I think that whether or not something is a supercar should be determined on a case by case basis and may not have a concrete definition that is so easily found.
