There are all sorts of intangible factors that cannot be captured on a spreadsheet. Just having an engine in the middle does not make a car a supercar.

Also Ferrari has a few cars with the engine upfront so engine location is not the determining factor. Likewise, I don't really consider the 911 supercar even its engine is at the back.
Agreed. Cautiously optimistic is how I feel about this car. I'm also a bit surprised there have not been any "no manual, no care" comments (at least in this thread, unless I just missed them).
