If it had a fixed roof it would be a coupe, but since it has a removable top and has non moving A and B pillars, it is a Targa

Hurricane

Roadsters are RWD 2 seaters.

Spyders are usually italian RWD or FWD 2 seaters

Targas are usually a hard top with an "arch" behind the seats

A CRX is just a plain old coupe as far as I know. I guess you could consider it a hatchback possibly as well.

chinkest_raver

Coupes are usually 2doors with a regular trunk but I'm not sure. Gen 1 & 2 CRX's can be considered either a simple hatch or coupe.

Who makes a FWD 2 seater that isn't a roadster/cabrio/targa?

saywhat

It is also refered to as a notch back.

GoldBadge

I generally consider any car that is 2 seater and RWD a sports car. Then you have your sub-categories like Targa, Spyder, etc...

nocturnaldragon

Most places consider it a coupe, I just checked kbb and its under coupe like most other places when I look.

Most Department of Motor Vehicles in the USA call it a coupe on registration.

Cabriolet
Another term for a convertible.
Convertible
A body style with a removable or retractable roof and rear window.
Coupe (US) or Coup� (UK/EU)
A 2-door, 2 or 4 seat car with a fixed roof. In some cases the rear seats are small and not intended for regular use; this is often called a 2+2.
Coupe convertible
A type of convertible with a rigid roof (as opposed to a fabric or vinyl roof) that retracts into the lower bodywork.
Crossover SUV
A type of SUV which is based on a car platform rather than truck chassis.
Estate car
A British English term for what North Americans call a station wagon.
Fastback
A style of coupe in which the back slopes at a smooth angle from behind the front seats all the way to the tail.
Hardtop
Originally referred to a removable solid roof on a convertible; later, also a fixed-roof car with no fixed window frames, which is designed to resemble such a convertible. The doors have no window surrounds. A pillarless hardtop (the most common kind) is completely open on the sides with the windows down.
Hatchback
Identified by a rear door including the back window that opens vertically to access a storage area not separated from the rest of the passenger compartment. May be 2 or 4 door and 2 or 4 seat.
Liftback
A style of coupe with a hatchback; this name is generally used when the opening area is very sloped (and is thus lifted up to open).
Limousine
By definition, a chauffeur-driven car with a (normally glass-windowed) division between the front seats and the rear. In German, the term simply means a sedan.
MPV
Multi-purpose vehicle, a large car or small bus designed to be used on and off-road and easily convertible to facilitate loading of goods from facilitating carrying people.
Notchback
A cross between the smooth fastback and angled sedan look.
People carrier
A car usually containing three rows of seats, with a capacity of six or more passengers. Often with extra luggage space also. As opposed to a van, a people carriers is styled as a car, though are more van-like than a station wagon.
Pickup truck
Medium sized truck-like car featuring a separate cabin and rear load area, combining functions of a car and a truck.
Roadster
Originally a two-seat open car with minimal weather protection. A folding top might be fitted, along with side curtains, but there was no side glass. Modern roadsters still have two seats but have tops and side windows; the term means simply a convertible sports car, similarly to spyder.
Saloon
The British English term for a sedan.
Sedan
A car seating four or more with a fixed roof that is full-height upto the rear window. Normally a 4 door; 2 door is rarer but they do occur (more so historically). This is the most common body style. In the U.S., this term has been used to denote a car with fixed window frames, as opposed to the hardtop style where the sash, if any, winds down with the glass. As hardtops have become rarer, this distinction is no longer so important.
Sports utility vehicle (SUV)
Derivative of off-road or four-wheel drive vehicles but with car-like levels of interior comfort and drivability. Also sometimes called a "soft-roader".
Spyder (or Spider)
Similar to a roadster but originally with even less weather protection. Nowadays means simply a convertible sports car.
Shooting brake
A two-door estate car/station wagon in (somewhat antiquated) British usage. Often based on a higher-end car.
Station wagon
A car with an full-height body all the way to the rear; the load-carrying space created is accessed via a rear door or doors.
Targa top
A semi-convertible style used on some sports cars, featuring a fully removable hard top roof panel which leaves the A and B pillars in place on the car body. (e.g. Fiat X1/9). Strictly, the term originated from and is trademarked by Porsche for a derivate of its 911 series, the Porsche 911 Targa, itself named after the famous Targa Florio rally. A derivative arrangement, called a T-bar roof, has two removable panels and retains a central narrow roof section along the front to back axis of the car (e.g. Toyota MR2 Mk 1.) (A related styling motif is the Targa band, sometimes called a wrapover band which is a single piece of chrome or other trim extending over the roof of the vehicle and down the sides to the bottom of the windows. It was probably named because the original Porche Targa had such a band behind its removable roof panel in the late 60's.)
Utility vehicle (ute)
Australian English term for a pickup truck.
Van
In the context of a car type, this is usually a car body with no passenger capacity or windows at the rear. Such models are a utility vehicle with a fully enclosed load area, with seating usually for two people.

I'll make sure that I include a healthy opinion with everything that I write from now on.

I'm really not sure what "postwhoring" means but I take it that also means write more. So that's what I'll do
