A Miata is MOST definitely a chick car, without a doubt. Get something with a V-6 at least. The new Mustangs get decent gas mileage, look good, are cheap to repair, and the V-6 is a hell of a lotta fun to drive, so they get my vote.

HAH! The v-6 stang is more of a chick car than the miata.
There is an entire racing series built around the miata.

Not if there is already a dick in it.

Yeah, at my college, the girls’ daddies would buy them all Mustangs, remembering how much they wanted Mustangs when they were kids.
My co-worker’s nephews competitively race Miatas…but I still think they are just a little bit wussy.

If you are worried about what shows manliness, and it is still not yet decided and the deal breaker is the car, um, therapy is a better investment.
Trucks with no intention of filling up the bed with anything, a motorcycle based on noise instead of performance, jeep or other off road vehicle used for the road only…confidence lack.[/quote]
I agree, especially the part about driving a truck with no intention of filling up the bed with anything. What is up with all of these trucks with luxury interiors? Why would I spend an extra 10 grand for a truck with a fancy interior that I’m just going to fuck up with my dirty clothes and muddy boots? Ridiculous.

The ones with carpeted, enclosed beds, are better.
Eh I don’t buy into this too much, although there are definitely cars that are considered “womanly” or even gay. The miata being the main example…driven by middle-aged women, gay men, or men who are undergoing middle life crisises.
I drive a Mazda 3 which isn’t very manly but I like it, so I don’t give a fuck.

the V-6 'stang is what you end up with when you neuter those other 2 cylinders.
and don’t get me started on how emasculated the Mercury Cougars got. a 6 or 4 cylinder engine, no option for a V-8? WTF?!
I’m saving up for the new Camaro when it comes out. Talk about manliness and balls. It’s going to be fucking awesome.

Alright alright, so the V-6’s arent as manly as the V-8s, I’ll give ya that, the wheels need to be changed, they still go plenty fast but wont sound the same of course.
