Girly cars vs. Manly cars (Laura Ingraham)

I was listening to the Laura Ingraham radio show today and they were talking about how some cars are girly cars and some are manly cars. Laura was particularly mentioning that the Mazda Miata was a girly car. This was news to me. Her assisitant chimed in with saying the Mazda 3 was a girly car. This was also news to me. I'm in the market for a new car and was thinking of buying the MAzda 3 or a Miata. I've been told that the 3 has fewer service issues than other Mazda cars.

Of course one would gather that the manly cars would be trucks.

One girly car I've noticed is the VW Beetle. I've never seen a man driving one of those.

What do Freepers think? What cars are girly cars and what cars are manly cars.

the current 911 is the 997.

"I know that Pontiac is mainly a woman’s brand, and Dodge is mainly a man’s vehicle."

That's funny!
I was thinking just the other day that I have NEVER seen a man driving a Pontiac G6!

[Army Air Corps]

The Soltice is a helluva car based on the specs that I have seen.

[Charles Martel]

Just don’t get a Subaru unless you are a dyke.

Yep, except perhaps the WRX models, particularly the STI versions. Mean little beasts, those street-legal rally cars. Too cramped for my height, though. Too bad... the "TR" (Tuner Ready) version of the Impreza WRX sedan is real sleeper - and it looks like an Altima/Corolla/Civic to most cops.

I’m with you. I have a Red Beetle with turbo engine and manual transmission. It’s a gas.

But around about the time I bought it I found out that their main market is females, age 18-42.

[DCPatriot]

I lust after this!

[llevrok]

Don’t remember any female marketing

Initially, The target buyer was air line stewardesses/Mary Tyler Moore types. That is, young, vibrant women with pouting, small... (ooops. That was a bit too far).

[KenHorse]

But on the Laura Ingraham show today they she was saying the Mustang is a man car. However, one caller called in to say that when the Mustang first came out it was marketed as a female car.

Maybe then it was. I own a 2006 GT and it ain't no girly car! Then again, my wife drives a Camaro!

[FreedomPoster]

Yeah, I just realized my mistake, and was coming back to make that correction.

[oceanview]

without a doubt - one of the best cars made.

[MaDeuce]

How about Speed's car...

... or Fred's car...

[pepperhead]

What more can I say?

I say FUGLY.

[FreedomPoster]

I stll can’t get over the Dame Edna headlights.

Damn Chris Bangle!

[MarkeyD]

Manly Car

[KenHorse]

What more can I say? How about "gag me with a spoon"?

Sorry but that Bugatti is one butt-ugly machine...

[DCPatriot]

{{{SIGH}}}

Before I would spend $35K on ANY new car, I would test drive a Certified used BMW M3...or even an older M5.

Once you drive it, you will buy it!

[elmer fudd]

Does it come with AARP membership?

[fkabuckeyesrule]

I read somewhere that the car of choice by terrorist was a VW.

[RegulatorCountry]

male p*nis.....

I don't believe there's any other kind, unless you're talking prosthetics and Subaru Forrester drivers, lol.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

Least-possible girly truck!
