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

Interestingly enough the reason the guy I bought my car from was selling it was because she didn't like driving a manual.

As far as girly cars go, the new style VW bug isn't exactly masculine. What other car comes with a dash board flower holder as an option? I think I would rather drive a pink S2000 than a bug with a flower mounted to the dash. But that's just me.

Ok. Do you guys ever run into people accusing you of driving a girly car? How do you reply?

I would say...My logic is simple...If this is a "GIRLY CAR"...would it not tend to attract "GIRLS"??? If I drove a "MANLY CAR"...would it not tend to attract "MEN"???

Maybe it's just the "heterosexual" in me...but I perfer to attract "GIRLS"

Never happened to me yet, at least not to my face. But if it did, I would inform them that they obviously are clueless when it comes to automobiles ...

Ditto. I've only gotten complements so far though, (especially from girls...)

They do not know Honda is the largest engine maker in the world.

Larger than Toyota?

Sometimes its nice to have "just a Honda." Just think if I had bought a Boxster or a Z4!

This was a reason why I bought the S - the fun of what are typically expensive German roadsters without the cost, reliability, and snob issues.
