    As a super car yes, as a hyper car no. To me the P1, huyara and La Ferrari are hyper cars.

    I would say yes. From a performance standpoint it does, and from an it-has-[non-permissible content removed]-go-wrong-that-would-never-be-tolerated-on-a-20%-as-expensive-car standpoint it does, too. Stylingwise maybe not so much.

    can you imagine creeping along in bumper to bumper traffic in that?

    Question 1) Can I afford it?
    Question 2) Can I afford it while still obtaining room, food, and etc?
    Question 3) Will my prius-driving frown upon a "wasteful car"?

    If yes to all, I call it a supercar just because it's a pipe dream; I've got my pick of compact cars for the foreseeable future :/

    Can't let myself get too involved in armchair exotic car purchases. Reality's a cruel mistress.

    I think you mean if NO to 1 & 2, YES to 3... At least, that's what it would be for me.

    if an R8 qualifies as a supercar then the sls can be one too.
