Why do people from Spain who speak Spanish, speak a different style and with a lisp?
As opposed to Hispanic-American Spanish speaking people. I am fluent in Spanish but don't have the Spanish style or lisp either.

The people in Spain who speak Spanish pronounce the soft "c" as a "th" sound. Ex. Barcelona (Bahr-seh-lohn-ah) now becomes Barcelona (Bahr-theh-lohn-ah). I belive it sound much better than Latin American Spanish.

It’s their accent and idiom. It’s the same as British and American English having different styles and accents! Whether or not you pronounce your z’s and c’s with the "lisp" depends on where you learnt your Spanish and who taught it to you.

Spanish language has to be pronounced with rules of pronunciation, which are different of rules of pronunciation of English. And in Spanish when you pronounce the c or the z like th in English, the sound of th in think, you don’t lisp. You lisp, when you pronounce s like th. It is pronounced, the s like th, in somewhere in the southern of Spain.
