You can ask a million guys this question and you will get a different answer. Every guy out there thinks his race car is a street car. (including myself)

Here's Titan's 7 sec street car

^ Kind of the way I look at it. If it has a tag, stock frame, and you fill it up (most of the time) at a normal gas station, then it's a street car.
