Girly cars vs. Manly cars (Laura Ingraham)
Laura Ingraham radio show ^ | April 9, 2007 | n/a

Posted on 04/09/2007 6:53:58 PM PDT by fkabuckeyesrule

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.

I don’t know about the car, but that is one nice chassis and a great-looking frame! Real long mileage, and what’s under the hood looks nice, too.

Generally so.

Though it is possible to un-girly-car them with the addition of a roll cage, track suspension and brakes, track tire set, etc.

The Mazda 3 is a fun little car that doesn’t have quite enough leg room for me. I personally like the 3.0 Mazda6, with a 6 speed auto + sport-shift. If you want a manual trans, you might want to check out the Mazdaspeed 6 AWD model.

About the Mustang, I remember seeing the then brand new Mustang at the NY World’s Fair. Sure seemed like a car Mickey Mantle would drive to me. Don’t remember any female marketing, except maybe the glamor girls that always surrounded it in ads.

Get yourself a Pontiac Solstice. No worry about being called a sissy.

My ‘65 Sprite was girlie, I wasn’t cool enough to know. It was a freakin’ blast. August nights, 6000rpm, Loraine Highway....not a date in sight.

That’s not even a car. It’s a breadbox with a motor.

Girlie or Manly?

It's not what you think it is.

It’s not showing for you? I can see it. At least, I think I can.

I was half kidding. In university, all the Neon owners who I have met were females. This, of course, is about as scientific as a Reuters poll.

But it becomes a manly car if you’ve got a six pack of Corona on the floorboards and the chick in your passenger seat.

However, one caller called in to say that when the Mustang first came out it was marketed as a female car.

When it first came out it had a straight six. It's funny what happens when you drop a small block V-8 into something isn't it?
