Well i dont knw if its chicky, but its definitely more unique than CBP. I am happy to have my RBP, not only coz its more unique, coz its a jewel. So dont worry abt chicky, its a TSX

I almost got it...my wife had it third on HER list behind RBP and the other blue. I got CGP instead which was second on MY list behind RBP. Don't know what you get out of this but whatever...

There's nothing wrong with any of the colors...it's just that some of the colors are more popular.

On my first '06 TSX test drive, it was a GBP. I wasn't too impressed....but after seeing some pictures of other members' GBP, it's starting to grow on me.

Gbp

I actually am glad I got the GBP. The RBP looks great also. I love them both! I just wanted to see if there are members who got the GBP as I see mostly CBP, NBP or the Silver. I'll take a pic after I get a wash and share with you all.

And oh yeah - I do think GBP is a bit more feminine, but that is because I am not a dude.

I don't think Glacier Blue is chicky per se. That's why I got one. (Guy here.) However, perhaps some chicks want to go with colors that are not so "masculine." Then GB is one of those. In my opinion, GB, Milano, and White might be in that category as well. I prefer to think of GB as a more *androgenous* color. It's just too hard and metallic to qualify as mostly fem. And I get positive comments from both men and women about the car.

And, sigh, another dead horse beater about the TSX being a chick car. You are wrong and on the wrong thread. Why don't you test drive a TSX before making flaccid comments about it's styling, which is only half the story. The handling is too crisp, solid and sporty to be just a chick car. And lookswise, sure it doesn't have muscle-car lines, but it's not round, fun and cute, which is what most chick cars are. Whatever car you have, don't attempt to make you and your car more masculine, by targetting the TSX. Your best bet is to get a better job with more $, so you can get a more muscley car, or better yet just invest it into some implants for your body.

There's a girl who works in the same office building that I work in, and she said she was going to buy a TSX, but ended up with a TL instead because she wanted to have a 6 cylinder engine. So there you have it--a TL is more of a chick car than a TSX.

I second that! I like GBP, it was my second choice color and some days I wish I would have gotten it instead of ASM.

I like my GBP (a little more or less depending on the light conditions), although sometimes I have second thoughts in the direction of CGP or RBP. The color does draw a lot of compliments from women.

By the way, has anyone seen the new Pixar movie "Cars"? I couldn't help but notice that the lead "female" character is a Porsche 911...the color of which is very similar to GBP.

On a side note, when you tell your kids about this car, they may not even know what a Glacier is.

This is a funny thread. I had the same thoughts when I was buying my TSX. Initially I reallly liked the Glacier Blue, but then heard from one of the dealers that it was a feminine color. So that put some doubt in my head.

But in the end, I really liked the GBP and got that color. Since then, everyone who has seen my car immediately comments on how much they like the color. It's the first reaction to the car.

So if you like the GBP, then get that color. Plus, I do like the uniqueness of it the color as well.

Good luck

not chicky at all. I just bought one yesterday and its an extreamly rare color. in my state you won't find many at all. only a handful and the dealers don't even know why. they even tell me its one of the most requested colors. everyone that i've shown the car to so far (both male and female) commented on how slick the color is and how sharp it is. so no its not fem at all. its just a rare color and there aren't many out there i don't think.

Nothing chicky about Gerzy Bear Performance. Unless your a girl looking for mega HP gains.
