zevolv 01-13-2004 03:04 AM

Any Jeep. yes the RX lexus. SLK. The Miata can be. The TT convertible is a little girlish no the coupe though.

zevolv 01-13-2004 03:10 AM

holy shit did you see that H2 in chicago?

antonioledesma 01-13-2004 03:12 AM

how about the honda civic?
toyota corolla

don't mention minivans, they're obvious.

zevolv 01-13-2004 03:13 AM

yeah I've seen like five times it's stupid

blah 01-13-2004 03:23 AM

Volvos are pretty girly, and saabs. the honda element too.

zevolv 01-13-2004 03:24 AM

that's great. I know a girl who's dad manages a Cadillac/Hummer dealership and he hates the Escalade EXT(pickup, it leaks when the bed fills with water.) and the H2 he takes home a real HUMMER all the time. the real HUMMER is shorter than the H2 and has more ground clearance, It has the same turning radias also and that is one masculine truck.

stradale 01-13-2004 05:30 AM

Daihatsu Copen and Cuore, Suzuki Alto, Mercedes A-class, Renault Twingo, Smart City Coupé, Citroën C3 and Pluriel, Ford StreetKa, Lancia Ypsilon and Nissan Micra.

zevolv 01-13-2004 05:31 AM

all these european cars not available in the states.

astonmartinandy 01-13-2004 06:12 AM

I really think it canbe summarised to any car whish is underpowered and the emphasis is placed on the way it looks far more than how it "goes". So yeah most VW's are up there (apart from R32 etc) and that Pink Hummer just sounds hysterical. Pls send me a photo if you find one!!

TT 01-13-2004 06:35 AM

The most girlish car of the moment, together with the Beetle is the StreetKa :D

dylan99 01-13-2004 01:12 PM

The new Lancia Fulvia is for girls, I think in the Fulvia it will only have pretty girls in it, I sure do hope so.

I Think the BMW Z3 is girly car it's a shame James Bond drove in one!

racer_f50 01-13-2004 01:12 PM

Posche 911s and Boxsters.
Saabs (especially from early 90s).
VW Beetles, in all shapes and forms.
All cars made by Geo (Metro, Storm, etc...)
Mitsubishi Eclipse
BMW Z3

Fleischmann 01-13-2004 01:59 PM

Yep, gotta agree on the Z3. I'm glad that the Z4 came in as saved BMW's reputation in my eyes :)

Fleischmann 01-13-2004 01:59 PM

Agree with all those except 911s. How is that a girly car, maybe a Cabrio with tiptronic, but to just lump all 911s as girly, that seems a little much. I really don't think a 911 2.7 RS is a girly car. I mean how many girls do you know drive a stripped out, rear engine, tail happy as can be, German sports car with manual box, no a/c, radio or any other creature comforts? I sure don't know any, in fact I only know about 6 or 7 girls who can actually drive a manual, much less own one.

I can see saying a few specific 911s, but come on, all of them? There are so many hardcore 911 models that completely alienate most women, to me a real 911 is one that most women (and some men I guess) would consider stupid, a waste of money or pointless because it is so much of a sports car; hard suspension, tricky to drive, not the most practical car...

1)VW Beetle, esp the Cabrio
2)VW Cabrio
3)Ford Escort/Focus esp 4 door, Taurus
4)Lumina, Sunfire, Satrun any small GM car
5)Mustang/Camaro V6
6)All of those little Japanese cars Nissan Micro, etc
7)Honda Civic, esp with flower seat covers, 3G Eclipse
8)Suburan, Explorer, any lame SUV
9)ML class, SLK, C class, A class
10)PT Crapper

Johns 01-13-2004 03:56 PM

the new W209 CLK benzes are girly! xcept for the amg version :D

You're kidding, right?! I think it's a wonderful car that hopefully will go into production. If it does, I would gladly have one without ever thinking I was in a girly car. IMO it's elegant, but absolutely not girly.

snacky 01-13-2004 10:55 PM

ALL SUVs are girly. women drive big cars for fear of collision. cant blame em, the weaker sex have better survival instincts and are generally more risk averse than men.

I really hate SUV drivers, they cant keep em in their own lane. otherwise, some of em can carry alotta stuff, which is a good thing.

beatle convert

HeilSvenska 01-14-2004 07:16 PM

Mini is a girly car, although many men praise it for its driving abilities. i have friend who is a girl and crazy for Mini Coopers. She also loves Honda S2000. I say convertibles and mini-roadsters- MX-5 Miata, S2000, MR2, and SLKs.
I do like Opel Speedster/ Vauxhall VX220 and the Smart Roadster, they are fun and small, but no way girly. In fact girls hate them.

HeilSvenska 01-14-2004 07:17 PM

Oh yes, Der Neu Beetle is absolutely impossible to own if you are a heterosexual man

Chaos in 1983! 01-14-2004 08:16 PM

Mini, PT Cruiser, New Beattle, Miata, any really small convertible, Ford Fiesta, StreetKa, SLK, I agree with john the new CLK is girly...

zevolv 01-14-2004 09:27 PM

what the hell can't people spell the beetle right? oldsnail named the band and others are even worse

nchs09 01-14-2004 09:29 PM

i think everyone has forgotten the most girly car..IMO is the MR2. also i think the boxter is a girly car, but i sitll love it

zevolv 01-14-2004 09:32 PM

now that I think about it I do know 3 girls with new MR2s

hirari 01-15-2004 12:01 AM

I think S2000 is suitable for a sporty girl. Just like Devon Aoki with her S2000 in 2F2F. She looks just fine in it :wink:

snacky 01-15-2004 12:09 AM

FORD PROBE, cuz women like to be probed.

Maybe it has something to do witth the fact it was designed by a woman...

I disagree with you guys on the small convertibles such as MX5 (Miata). It is true women are attracted to these cars, but that's different from girly cars. I think a man shouldn't be ashamed to drive one, as opposed to a man driving a New Beetle. Why? Because they're not just cars that were intended to appeal to a group of people by their looks and of which the manufacturer didn't bother to make it a good car in other aspects. The MX5 is a rear wheel drive convertible that drives really well. Women may like it, but it's still a seriously good car for which no man has to ashamed. I am aware though that Americans may not see it this way and dismiss every small car as being a girly car. IMO that's not right.

hemi_fan 01-15-2004 04:45 PM

V6 Mustangs/Camaros!! Beatles of course, vans, honda element, (I dissagree with the Jeep Liberty BTW, I like it), Chrysler Sebring, pretty much any underpowered cheap 2-door convertible.

Agreed.

New Beetles, especialy the new homosexual version.......WHOOPS i mean the cabrio version.........

:roll:

I dont really like to classify particular cars as girly.....but the Beetle is an exception...

I think the SLK is ugly and crap, but I dont particulary think its feminene
Maybe its because when I first started notcing them it was the year 2001.
So it looked bit old

Leo_M3 01-15-2004 05:10 PM

I just saw pics of the new SLK and I would have to say its way too feminene.

ITS UGLY :!:

By the way I would also have to say the 360 Modena is rather feminene but in a very good way......look at her sleek sexy lines...SHES BEAUTIFUL :shock: :D

RallyeNLD 01-15-2004 05:18 PM

Ever heard of the Peugeot 206 CC. Wow, that's gay transportheaven. Voted as sexiest car by gay people. It has been pointed out in Top Gear a while ago. The Merc SL55 became second (now let that be jeremy's car!!!! :D )

redbaron 01-15-2004 05:26 PM

Yes the 206 CC is a feminine/gay car, just like the new micra and daihatsu copen. I don't think the SL55 is a feminine/gay car, that car has real balls!
