My truck is in the shop so I had to rent a car for an out of town trip. My wife and 6yr old granddaughter took me to car rental place. I rented a mid-sized Nissan. When my granddaughter saw it she starts teasingly saying, "Granpa got a girly car..." if she only knew.
I am planning to make my return trip as Molly... in a "girly car!" LOL

my car is a Chevrolet Malibu Maxx in White - it wasn't a successful model variant, but it was designed as a professional woman's car. drivers side makeup mirror is the lighted one, it's apleasure to get in and out of in a skirt and heels. love it to pieces

and for the girl on the go it has a heavy duty Chevrolet V6, which makes me very very happy

We have an Outback, too. It has a lot of virtues. It is the right height to make entry and exit easy for some of us who are no longer young and flexible. The back seat is habitable for adults. The controls are reasonably simple. It gets decent fuel mileage (high 20s). It has all-wheel drive and decent ground clearance, which comes in handy when rain or melting snow makes the gravel road to our house sloppy. It had just enough room with the rear seat folded down to allow someone to sleep in it. It is rated to pull a 2500 lb trailer, such as a small boat, a motorcycle trailer, or a small pop-up camper. It even came with a spare tire and wheel (limited-use spare) unlike the majority of cars these days. The engine is a little noisy. Being a station wagon body style there is no out-of-sight place to carry valuables. Sorry if that sounds like a Subaru ad.

My wife has always had convertibles, but is in a temporary lull. I'm thinking a Mercedes Benz or BMW convertible is in our future. White, of course! Do I have an alternative motive?........I just have to pay off a few bills first! I hate when that happens!

I've a Jetta and when I got it, my daughter exclaimed 'Dad!! You got a chick car!' as it so happens she has one too.
My response was 'honey.....it's a diesel and a manual, so it's not quite a chick car'..

So some cars are "girly"? So here are us cross dressers complaining that we are expected to conform to certain socially accepted male stereotypes and then we start to project those stereotypes on to cars.

I wouldn't have ever considered any of the above mentioned vehicles as 'girly' cars. maybe if they had some hello kitty decals on them. But in standard livery? Nope. Not girly at all. Well, ok, I'm sure the knuckle draggers consider anything that isn't a porsche 911 or a monster truck 'a girly car'. But the rest of the world? Prolly not.

Hi Mikayla, funny you should mention a Jeep. I once read an article about how the two most favorite cars favored by Gay men ("not that there's anything wrong with that") were Jeeps and Mazda Miatas, two cars I happen to like a lot as well, so perhaps maybe not so butch! :) Also, I'm not goofing on gay men, I mean I wear panties for gosh sakes!

I think cars can go both ways.
I have noticed Mazda Miatas are popular with gay men and rave 4's are popular with lesbians.
Why I have no idea but its something I have noticed.

I drive an Audi TT which a lot of people refer to as a girl car. I don't know why. I think its a good car for either gender.

Well im not gay but its 4 wheel drive ..lol but the guys refer to it as the barbi jeep because its yellow with a sunset decal on it from the factory..lol

I have a Mini Cooper and always heard Minis are a girls car. Attended a couple meetings of a local Cooper club and it seemed a 50-50 gender split. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ is there really a girls car?

AnnieMac
11-27-2016, 03:55 PM
So the latter part of the discussion here seems to indicate that cars are gender fluid. Well after all they go both ways . . .forward AND reverse!
Geesh, Annie is getting a warning light, I think my gender fluid is a little low. :) Ooops, no looks like it's the tranny fluid.

You are all silly girls. Reading this has made me laugh. I have seen men drive ford probes (which to me has to be the gayest name for a car) to GG's driving lifted trucks. To me what makes a car or truck a chick vehicle would have to be the color. If it is pink or fuchsia then most likely a girl car. All other colors are up for grabs.
My vehicle is a jeep grand ckarokee fully loaded with leather heated seats 10 disk cd changer. It is gold in color though. Before that I had a full sized dodge truck with over sized tires on it.
Love you all lots
Hugs and kisses
Jessie
PS:
Most of the time I am in my simi truck driving the Rockies. Makes for a very interesting climb in a skirt.

My car (which is my daily driver) is a white 1994 Mazda Miata. I've had lots of people say to me that it's a girls car or a gay guy's car yet if you go on the Miata.net website almost everyone on there seems to be a dude :)

I think I may have the perfect CD car. It"s a little two seat Z4 Roadster. Girly enough so far. But then there"s the 343 UK spec ponies hiding under the hood. Brakes the size off dustbin lids and the four tail pipes. That may be construed as less girly by some people.

Mazda supports a whole class of racing in which virtually every driver is male. Spec Miata is the most popular group of club racing. Affordable, reliable, inexpensive to modify the cars (comparitively, anyway) and fun. Of course it's looked down on by all the macho males because THEIR class of racing is none of those things. Macho men need their past times to be expensive, difficult, and irritating. Just to prove that they are manly men.

Lisa, nice to have a femme car, but like wearing jeans,who notices?

I have a big 4WD, and I enjoy that also.

Anyway, enjoy your car, I enjoy mine.

I drive a 06 grand caravan sxt, red in color. Of course, red is my favorite color too. Wife liked the mini van as it has those stow away seats and it's good for carrying grand kids around. I don't consider it a girly car nor a macho car. Just simply a family act, when wife is away, I dress and cruise around, both day and night. Don't think to many cops will pull over an older lady driving a mini van at night or even during days. Maybe a yellow mustang though? Kind my oldest daughter used to have.

I'm guessing that the AMC Pacers have all died.....and the reason for not being mentioned so far. lol That was the car waaay back when that was thought to be the "girliest". I thought it would be pretty neat car!! Untill I heard that!!! At the time I wasn't brave enough to own one. Darn macho youth!

My cars now aren't very girly.....big commercial box truck with lettering and an old 1994 Lincoln Town Car Cartier (which I'm trying to sell for $1500.00)

Of course it's looked down on by all the macho males because THEIR class of racing is none of those things. Macho men need their past times to be expensive, difficult, and irritating. Just to prove that they are manly men.

The Mazda MX-5 hardly deserves any of this flak. The ND, in my book, appears to be trying way too hard to look edgy / macho / masculine. I think the softer lines of the older generations - I say this especially of the NC - were much more aesthetically pleasing. They're fairly tiny cars as they were, their size and profile implying a petite driver. In the public eye, the MX-5 doesn't boast much in the way of raw statistics anyway; if it were anthropomorphised it would be slim and lithe, unimpressive midst the beefy and muscular.

I don't see any justifiable reason for the stereotypes that surround MX-5 drivers either. They're excellent cars.

(The Daihatsu Copen receives this exact stereotype my neck of the woods, complete with transphobic insults inexplicably lumped in.)

(For the record, I drive a family sedan whose original owner decked out to look like a racing variant. "Girly" is the last thing that comes to mind - not that it ever did, even now.)

I'm looking at the new Miata RF because that Targa top, but I don't buy cars worrying what others think.

Also looking at the recently announced Fiat Spyder which shares the Miata's platform. I wonder how an Italian Japanese crossbreed will get labeled.

Wow, guess my choices could be considered gender fluid. Actually subconscious choices on my part? I owned a Ford Probe GT for several years. Followed that with a Mazda Miata MX-5. Liked that car but felt that it was a bit underpowered. Needed more space for "stuff" due to employment travel at the time, so bought an Infinity G37X awd in 2009. Plenty of power now!

The Fiat 124 Spyder and current Mazda Miata MX-5 are great looking cars. Too bad that either does not have a factory option with engine power closer to 200 HP. That would be very tempting!

Nothing girly about my Jeep Cherokee though.

Oooh err Jane, nice set of wheels. Only one problem, it's a beamer ;)

How's this for a girly car... 2009 Jaguar S-type 2.7 diesel - 0 - 60 in a knat's heartbeat. My wife's car! At least she hasn't fitted it with long curly eyelashes like some of the VW beetles that I see!

When I bought my Pearl White Honda S2000, all my friend joked that it wa girly car. They even joked that I drove it wearing a sundress. As others have said, if they only knew what I wore when I drive it during my days off.

I first read this post a few days ago before going to work. On my way to work a stock white Jeep Wrangler passed me. My first thought was Girls car. On the drivers side rear window I saw a window sticker of 6 inch heeled pump and said yep, a girl owns it. Then I thought maybe not, maybe it's a crossdresser. I raced up along side it to see the driver. All I can say is it was a female figure. GG or CD, couldn't tell.
Coming from a car guy's perspective, they are like clothes, they can say a lot about someone or what the owner wants others to believe.

Toyota Corrolla S here. It does have a hitch but not sure what the 4 cylinder engine could haul.

I towed a trailer with a 4-wheeler aboard for several years behind my 4-cylinder Civic. Bad idea. I needed a transmission job - about $2,000. That was 7 years ago. I quit towing with the Civic, and have had no problems since then.
Lots of people have receiver hitches but never tow. Bike racks, cargo carriers, etc.
