Poll. Miata. Chick car or not.

[Mike09]

Simple. Is the Miata pre 2002 a chick car yes or NO.

[shakalaka]

I say yes!

[brandon]

no, id buy a miata if I came across one for cheap as a project car.

[A_3]

naw, the older ones maybe a little but I like the new ones. With a little work they can be pretty speedy little cars.

[BerserkerCatSplat]

The old ones are slightly girly, but who cares? They're FUN!

[hjr]

yes, but i would still drive one. they is cool

[Redlyne_mr2]

Check out buddy with the red turbo one thats always at Solo events. He's an awesome driver and his car is super fast. Miatas are great little cars, a pure driving experience. Girly would be Del Sol or mx3.

[88CRX]

i'd drive a miata.... but as redlyne said... del slows and precidias may be considered girly :dunno:

[Ichigo]

Dont try to justify anything mike.. Stick with your silvia's

[Mike09]

I think the next car might be a miata. Dunno tho. I'll never make up my mind.

[rip]

With a 5.0L they haul ass.

Oh, I guess I never answered the original question. I would say if you drove it stock, yes you would look at bit fruity.

Slap.... :banghead:
anyway, I love the newer miatas, I would trade my "chick" car in for a second gen anyday, the first gen does look more girly but still awesome

I think a car's reliability, fun factor, utility, and performance matter way more.

[Hash_man]

Miata's are wicked cars, so much fun to drive too... if i came accross one i could afford i would snatch it up fast.,

[BokCh0y]

miata = girlie car, something you get for the wife to get her to STFU.


MR2 = man car. something you get to get away from the wife so you don't have to tell her to STFU.

[max_boost]

I'm not a fan of the Miata, but I'm not going to call it a chick car. Hell people even say the SLK is a chick car, but not like I care if I can go 0-60 in 4.8;)

Seems like any small roadster is a chick car, might as well include the Z3/Z4/S2000/Del Sol/ etc.

[JordanLotoski]

chicks or not so manly man's car!

[Redlyne_mr2]

Whats strange is that nobody called the MGB a girl's car and thats what the Miata is essentially. it's the new MGB. Maybe it's the name that throws people off. If that's the case use its JDM name and tell people you drive a Mazda roadstar. :thumbsup:

It's not the deciding factor in buying a car at all.
I'm just posting the poll to see your opinion's on it.

MY deciding factor is my near empty wallet.

[Big Double U]

too girlie for my likin.

[SilverBoost]

The newer ones are nicer fer sure, but a bigger factor IMO is how big are you, physically? I had a friend who owned one. Looked sweet, and could hit the corners like a champ, but he was a BIG guy. He looked a little like a McDonalds Happy Meal toy driving around in it.

[ehos]

Saw 3 Miatas today,
and all 3 were driven by the ladies.


Also see a bunch of Celica GT's, all lady driven (GTS = only men, wierd).

[Idratherbsidewayz]

Id pick one up for autox. Saw a few last year, looks like so much fun to drive...

[Euro_Trash]

Chick car and a half, doesnt matter how much power someone gets out of one, or that they're rear wheel drive, they just scream GIRLY
