Girliest car

Take into consideration the available power, the design, the number of female drivers you notice driving the cars, and then overall girliness.

Beetle hands down. That's the only car so feminine that, well... only a really feminine guy would drive, and butch chicks would laugh at.

I liked them back when I didn't have nice car, but now... ugh. Flower powermobile.

I'm talking about the newer style. The older has waymore classic value as an icon, even if it is a piece of crap without an engine swap.

First off, it should be the "new beetle" the "Bug" is the cool old schoolers. Secondly, the Miata isn't on the list! Thats the girliest car of all! lol

I voted Rav-4, because the only person I ever knew that drove one was a hot young girl. In reality, it's probably the new Bug. Although the old ones kick ass and are not girl cars at all.

yeah, new beetle... although I do know a guy who has a REALLY fast turbocharged newbeetle. Not the factory turbo, he got his before that jazz, and he is far from feminine.

+1 more on the Miata, although it has seemed to be more of a popular choice among homosexual men.

The ONLY upside to the beetle is that you could drop in the 2.7 V6 bi-turbo and push it up to 500+ awhp!

Now, what about the Mustang... girls LOOOOVE Mustangs. Heck, I saw 3 18 year-old self absorbed girls in a brand new convertable GT just today. I think 75% of the Mustangs I see are piloted by girls.

I've noticed a lot of girls driving SVXs in my area, many of em seem to have red hair, dunno why. I've tried to talk them in to coming to SVX meets but they always smile politely and quickly drive away, grrr.




(I think the SVX makes a great car for a girl)

I really don't think of miatas as being that "girly". I mean, they are, but so many are autocrossed etc... they're just not that feminine to me anymore.

My top five girl cars of all time:

new VW Beetle
3rd gen Eclipse
02 ish toyota Celica
Rav4
ANY Land Rover
