Anyone that considers a true sports car like the Miata a girl's car is just insecure.

Does it look like a girl's car, yes..... Do a lot of women drive them, yes..... But are they fun to drive and do they kick ass in motor sports, yes. Just depends on what's more important to you. Same goes for the Mini which is also an excellent car.

Actually, i don't see alot of women driving them. And to be honest the same convo is often said about the rx8. Miati is a great car, and no it doesn't mean your penis is small if you own one.

I guess if your insecure then yes, but as for me miata is a awesome car ( but i only like the first gen miatas, due to flip up lights.. )

Some people consider it to be. I love them though. They are a blast to drive. I plan on buying a nice clean used one. I am secure in my manhood, so, I really don't care if people call it a chick car. Now a VW Beetle, even I am not secure enough for that.

Very very few are. I was hesitant to ride passenger in one last month. I finally caved and considered it an accomplishment. Suprisingly I didn't grow a vagina during the ride.

haha i love some of the responses. i just drove one last week and it kicked ass, but i love my 8 better

I think most convertibles buyers are female regardless of the model. I think it's less chick than say a VW convertible. Its a hell of a lot more fun.

The first time I realy drove one and had it drifting through corners, I was sold on the car. It was so easy to drive. It made me look good. The car is so easy to control and drive fast. Oh, and that was in a completely stock one.

Used to think they were ghey until I saw BOLO7's miata. It's pretty mean looking, almost looks like the first pic but white.

Rosko350z 05-13-2008 07:02 PM

Until a few years ago when I started autocrossing, I would've said it's a car for gay men all day long ... or women. I knew a guy who had one, and used to think, you know, what a f@g! LOL Like it or not, that's the general consensus. My wife still feels the same way I used to feel about them. She's never tried to compete against a decent driver in a Miata through a cone-filled parking lot! That will quickly earn the Miata respect points!

To be named later 05-13-2008 07:13 PM

Honestly, I have no problem with anyone driving a Miata.

But anytime I see a man over 40 driving a convertable Miata, looking like he wants to be noticed, trying to look like a happenin' GQ playa'.........I think "Couldn't afford a convertable BMW or Lexus"

+1 Its just that some people dont like the car so they called it a girls car (just like the RX-8). Thing is its one cool car and I want one :smoker:
