I completely agree with you on all the ricer crap, but there's a difference between ricers and a good, high-reving engine. I absolutely hate The Fast & The Furious for this.

Did he (or anyone else at that first race) expect to beat Vin's Viper? OOOh a Viper, I know I'll race it with my Civic. They aren't even in the same class. F-1s don't race Nascar vehicles.

what's your thoughts on the s2000?

The s2000 is in the same class as the miata. It's great for autox and it's got a great engine - arguably the best pound-for-pound engine there is on a reasonable budget, but don't be daily driving that thing.

A Miata is NOT in the same class as an S2000. The S2000 has a much nicer engine, handles better, is more "luxurious", and costs about $10k more. The Miata is a nice car, great for its price, but it just isn't at the same level as an S2000.

How about the BMW Z3, or the Porshe Boxter? They're basically in the same class as the TT.

Anyhow, that's how this thread came about. I'm finally getting my first car but being 20, having just passed my test and living in Britland i can't get insurance _at all_ on a z3. Average insurance cost on most cars for me here is about $5k/year. So we in the twoplustwo chat room narrowed the cars down that i like to:

INFINITI G35 COUPE
Celica Exterior
Audi TT Roadster

Anyhow, i'm hoping the Audi TT doesn't fall into the same insurance category as the z3, oh, and that i don't look gay if i get one.

More suggestions are v. welcome.

What makes this statement funny is that Vin actually drove an RX-7. I hope you haven't been referring to it as a Viper in previous conversations because you would have looked retarded. Additionally, the other guy (Brian?) drove a decked out eclipse, which would absolutely be competition for an RX-7 when done correctly.

No it's a chill car. Not a girls car

BMW Z3 or a Mercedes Convertible is a girls car.

350z roadster > Audi for manliness, power, and looks.

You think a CLK convertible is more girly than an Audi TT? I strongly disagree.

While I think this thread is hilarious, I do think the idea of "guy cars" and "chick cars" is absurd.

What's a guy's car supposed to be? A monster truck with a penis-shaped spoiler?

[/ QUOTE ]

While I generally agree with you, no man should drive a Miata.

or a Bug

I do not personally think that it is a girl car... but it just so happens that everyone I know who has one is a girl.

Yes. It's a chick car.

It's not as bad as an Eclipse, but it's still a chick car.

the same way i can hate garish spoilers and under-car lighting i guess. when i hear a whiny engine, i expect to see a lowered civic with an airbrush of uncle ben on the hood.

So you saw my driving on the freeway the other day? Stop picking on my ride!
