Never once heard the girly car comment on an s2000 except when its a s. blue or the pink in F&F.
Thats exactly the reaon they give me. They tell me it changed to that for them after F & F II. Whatever, its just a freaking movie. Im sure that detective would be driving a tricked out skyline too. Or that cars with 20k or more under the hood would be meeting up to race through city streets.

So I guess its not a girly car but it is in fact a kids car. I knew I felt young driving it. Now I guess I know why.

This was discussed before and once again.....the comment "girly car" shows how stupid they are.

Yes there are female owners, but that alone does not make it "girly".

The car is only made in Manual tranny. Therefore it is NOT a "girly" car by derogatory definition.

All the other "girly" cars claim to fame is the automatic tranny that the women love so much to drive. (speaking in general, not ALL women)

Since you are only asking a question if we hear the comment.....the answer to this is NO!! I've never heard it.

If it was said to me......I'd laugh....

Ok. Do you guys ever run into people accusing you of driving a girly car? How do you reply?
It tells you something about the person making the comment. Insults imply the person has a low self esteem, and jabs such as this are attempts to boost their ego.
If you take offense to the comment, then they were successful.

Kids really do love love this car. Everytime I drive past a school bus, or a past a group of kids playing in the backyard, thay always stop playing, point and yell out "Nice Car!".
I've got to admit, when I was 10, I did the same thing

I don't mind at all. In fact, I put girls in my car whenever possible.
