Second, I get a good laugh at people when they call cars a chick car. The exception to the rule being, a BUG/Cab.
- My friends do this all the time. I recommend a car to them and they say, "that's a chick car".. To which I laugh.
- The Neon, when colored and optioned correctly can be a cool ass car. Same goes for MX-5.. We race those cars for cryin out loud. And they are a blast...
- I've even heard people say that about the Mini Cooper. To which I want to smack them. Just cause a car is small doesn't make it a chick car. And just cause a car doesn't have high horse power, doesn't make it a chick car either.
Those cars are also exceptional handling cars, again, optioned properly.

All of those cars, bug and cab excluded, are actually, fun little sports cars. Guys bring them to the track all the time and if you know how to momentum drive, bring a great field of racing..

I bet I could drive a Dodge Neon in circles around you. Then lets see you call it a girls car as I whip buy you at 130mph with the tail out.

It's not about what you drive, it's about how you drive it. And a soccer mom station wagon that has never seen a track or an apex is much more of a girl car than a supercharged, well optioned, Cooper S that's slamming it's way around Mulholland..

So in summary, concern yourself less with what is and is not a "girl" car. Cause most of the cars you mentioned, I'd be happy to get behind the wheel of a spank you silly.

I think you are are not on the same page, I don't really care if a station wagon is not the most Mucho car around. I also don't care if it is the fastest car around. Call it is a soccer moms car so what, the car meets my needs and I am man enough not to need to drive the fastest much macho car on the road.

I still think that some people view Jettas as girls car, I have provided two quotes to support that generalization. The Jetta is a fine car and represents a lot of car for the money.

I don't think calling a Jetta girls car is a big deal so go cool off and have a good day.

PS here is thread with you calling the new X5 which is more of a soccer mom car

I guess only you can make generalization since you drive so well?
