you drive the point i was trying to make. the perception that a supercar is high tech only if it has an automated gearbox. that is a myth in the traditional sense -in the sense that it has turned into a common belief based on no concrete, explicit, direct facts- like paul bunyan or che guevara's heroism. supercar classification has a big gray area and no specific concrete criteria.
seen pragmatically a two pedal supercar doesnt make it a supercar any better or worse than a three pedal counterpart, only different, or faster perhaps. imo- a three pedal gives you a more nuanced and visceral experienced. as jay leno said-" it is more exciting to drive a slow car fast than a fast car fast"
