Default Proof Chicks Know Zilch About Cars

Hyundai Tiburon? I'm not knocking the Hyundai, but I could wear out the ink on a pen to find something sexier.... :roll:

About half of the cars mentioned are known "girlie" cars that're a bit more sensible (terms of price) than what we blokes may think as sexy.

On korean cars in general... they're known for econoboxes & have brand equity of a pile of crap. It'll improve over time if they can keep quality up, deliver sexier looking cars & performance models. The Japs were able to do this and look what at the Big Three panicing.

I like Hyundai and think the tib is their best made, best looking car by far. If they would just make it RWD to move it into the same market as the RX8 and Z it would really be something.

But being FWD makes it of no interest to me. Still I think its a great car!

^^ and 80% of VW's are bought by women.

Besides which, the Z06 driving women at Z06Vette.com would outdrive you in any car at any track any hour of any day ..
