    I know lots and lots about cars and driving and its still a girls car, a very good girls car but still a girls car. Every time I see one I expect to see some hot bird driving it and am majorly disappointed when its a bloke.:D

    Why is it a girls car?

    You're either blind, or you've never seen one...

    If you judge a car purely on looks, then I rest my case. ;)

    Ffs look at it man..... it was designed to be a girls car, it looks like a girls car it appeals to girls, it comes in girls colours etc., etc., its like asking why is a handbag for girls.... it just is! And if your happy driving one then good luck to you but its still a girls car... right!:D

    So a pink M3 is a girls car by that logic :rolleyes:

    The Cooper S & Works to be fair to them are drivers cars but the standard Cooper & Mini One (which represent the majority in Ireland) are most certainly girls cars. Thing is, most people would not know the difference between the various models ... so in the end ... The new Mini will always be perceived as a GIRLS CAR. (Lets face it most are driven by teeny boppers or fashion conscious (unimaginative) twenty & thirty somethings ... who are a little too girly for their age. Women, tend to drive Golfs ... Professional types the A3.

    Some of you are more concerned about how a car looks, and how you look in it, then how the car drives. This is the motoring forum, you need to make your way over to the " Fashion & Appearance" forum :D

    The fact this thread was created shows that the OP knows deep inside its a girls car and he is concerned about his own "Fashion & Appearance"

    You felt the need to bring pink into the thread. ;) Then prove how macho you are. Taking it all a bit serious aren't we? :)

    I think if you check the previous posts the pink theme was going on before I got involved and in fact you brought it up.:)

    I'm still looking and don't know what to buy considering the cr@p roads and the witchhunt on against speeding, I probably go for a classic Lamborghini or something. I was over looking at a couple recently and always had a soft spot for them.
