So what elements in a car, constitute it to become a chick car

I was just curious since the other day I came across a post where one of the forum members called the MX-5 Miata a chick car...

Just curious ..

It's okay if you have one, it doesn't mean much, you could just be gay.

chick car= looks good, but no performance. being that chicks dont care about performance but rather just looking good.

what practical purpose do high heels serve? lipstick? I rest my case.

A guy car on the other hand is one that performs and either can or can't look good while doing it.

Probably the cuteness of a Miata is what drove him to label it a chickcar. Also, the red Mini Cooper is a chick car, as as mentioned the red Beetle. Also, black Maxima and silver G35 are big chick cars, as well as yellow Hummers, in addition to certain Eclipse models.

There's something difficult to name that draws females to some vehicles like ants to cookies, flies to poop, or leeches to blood.




But this throws the "looking good" theory out the window.

I dunno. Heels and lipstick can often lead to high performance.

The "sleepers" are the one's to look out for, though! They can really burn rubber.

It helps if it's a convertible. Better yet if the guy in the passenger seat is rubbing his hand through the dude's hair in the driver's seat. They call those Miatas.

I've never been with a girl while I was wearing heels and lipstick... that tends to freak them out.

to me a chick car is just a car that the general female population or gay guys have take a shine to.

Generally unimaginative cars, all show, no go. The late model eclipse's come to mind. They are the cars that "daddy" got for them and all they know how to do is put gas in it. No offense to car chicks out there... my ex had a miata it was really nice but all she knew how to do was fill it with gas, thats IT.

What practical purpose does a tie have again? ...or wearing a jacket and suit on a 100 degree day?

Clearly it is simply a car that lots of chicks drive.
