Some cars fit into more than one of those categories, but to me:
Supercar- 200mph top speed at least, very exclusive, style to itself. Says "You can't even afford the used oil!"
Exp - Mclaren F1, Bugotti EB110, Zonda C12
Exotic- Very exclusive and highly desired. Style everyone loves. Says "Drool baby, drool..."
Exp - Ferrari F40, BMW Z8, Porsche 959
Classic- 20+ years old. Nostalgic and timeless. Style reflects "better times" and more designer/customer interaction. Says "Remember me again and never forget."
Exp - '57 Chevy Bel Air, '69 Ford Mustang Mach 1, '65 Pont GTO.
Icons- Cars that fit 80% in each of the above. These cars exhibit traits of above mentioned, but are recognizable to the point they fit only their own category. Says "My owner will bleed in defense of my name. My tires will burn in defense of my owner."
Exp - Viper GTS, GMC Syclone, '65 SC Cobra 427.
Antique- 50+ Years old. Totally out of place with modern cars on road performance and style. A novelty and tribute to those who paved the way. Says "Dang WhipperRicers..."
Exp - Ford Model A
