A car isn't considered a "chick's car" because a women drives it. Look at the miata- the majority of owners are old men.

A car gets the title of "chick's car" because of it's overall styling. There is nothing feminine about the 3G TL

End thread.

See I would never call the Miata a chick car. Because obviously the Miata is driven by men....that love other men.

Damn that's pretty close to being a chick car isn't it.

By that logic, what's feminine about a Miata? Pop-up headlights? lol

Women love Miatas. They tell me that all the time when I'm driving mine.

Miata's are one of the very few cars where it's function totally makes up for it's form.

Well, seeing as how the TL has a "stick selector" that wasn't "replaced with buttons" I would say that it wouldn't qualify as a chick car.

If anything, it means you're a true man, comfortable with your sexuality
