Am I gay bacause I drive this car?

[quote name='Zing']Did you know that driving a Hummer means you are an asshole?[/quote]
QFT.

I get so mad when I see them in the city or in suburban areas. They're most unneccessary, wasteful vehicles ever created, at least for commercial/personal use. I have a friend who used to be a bouncer, and if anyone ever pulled up in a Hummer, he wouldn't let them in on principle.
 
Woah now, did the cobra have gas in it?:) I've driven both cars and unless you were on a racetrack or the miata was modded, that's not happening.
[quote name='Prepster']The mx-5 is an amazing car.......fast as hell and handles great. I have never heard anyone of my friends ever call that car gay.

That car beat the hell out of my friends SVT Cobra.

Also wasnt the mx-5 rated as the best sports car this past year? At least thats what I thought I read in Consumer Report.

BTW my opinion might be biased since I myself drive a Mazda RX8 so I try to stick up for Mazdas :)

Oh and for gay cars, my friends seem to think any guy driving an eclipse is a queer....[/QUOTE]
 
[quote name='Deathmonkey']The PT Cruiser on the otherhand ...[/QUOTE]
Oh, come on now! A PT Cruiser isn't a gay car! Everyone knows it's a midget hearse.
 
[quote name='David85']Exactly, just come out of the closet now and save some time.

What makes you gay is what you do in the back seat of a car, not the car itself.

And the BMW Z3 is a girl's car. i have never seen a guy in real life drive one.[/quote]

My old boss drove a Z3 and my boss was a non-gay dude.

Lmao yep the cobra had gas in it :lol: The Miata ripped the shit out of the cobra off the line.

The miata might have been modded but still, it kicked the shit out of his cobra.
 
[quote name='Warner1281']mini cooper's aren't gay. Just feminine.[/QUOTE]

The only guy I ever knew who owned a Mini Cooper ended up being gay. He was straight when I met him, but after 2 years of owning a Mini he came out. Sure, that could be pure coincidence, but are YOU willing to risk it?

I guess I just feel like you choose a car for a reason, especially when you buy one new. It's not like someone gave you the car, and you're like "well I'll drive it because I don't give a fuck." Therefore, people can judge you on it because you chose it over another car. I feel like this is especially the case with a Mini. The only thing you can like about it is the "cuteness" because it certainly isn't the best performance-wise/fuel economy/size/price.

My fiancee owns one, and she gets so pissed at me when I don't want to be seen driving it on campus. And before you ask, no, her sexual orientation has not changed after owning it.
 
[quote name='DeathDealer']dont flame or hate me, but I think its a gay car. I more expected this thread to be about a VW though, more specifically the jetta. I thought that was the national gay guy car.

Something can be gay with no sexual meaning by the way.[/quote]VW's are not for gays, they are for hippies! miata's and capris are the gay guys car! :lol:
 
[quote name='Warner1281']mini cooper's aren't gay. Just feminine.[/QUOTE]

I can't see how Mini Coopers are either gay or feminine. The power to weight ratio alone makes them a tuner's dream.
 
[quote name='docvinh']I think it's a chick car, but I would still drive it regardless. It handles pretty well.[/quote]

agreed "i think its a chick car" and are you like 5 foot tall because i have driven them and its a bit** to get in and out of let alone drive
 
[quote name='Purple Flames']Unless he was driving the car while sucking cock.[/quote]
That only makes you gay if the car is the only place you are suckin' cock.
 
Mojito's get you fucked up. In Baltimore, there is a place where you have to get one, so you can catch up with all the other drunks
 
I'm not sure if there's a car that only gay people drive, but when I see a younger guy driving a Mini Cooper, I question his taste a bit.
 
While I do think it's ridiculous to deride someone for the car he/she drives, I don't think it's completely ridiculous to view certain cars as being feminine or masculine.

In art, there are shapes and lines that might be considered more feminine or masculine. Of course, these descriptions really refer to traditional ideas of women (curvy, thin, and soft) compared to men (sharp, strong and bold). These same mindsets could very easily be transferred to car body design. I wouldn't doubt that there are certain cars targeted toward specific sex/gender markets based on these conceptions (even if the cars weren't originally designed with that intent).
 
only time your gay for driving a car is no matter that car but the fact that you have a gay pride rainbow on your bumper. Then that makes you gay well, cause you are.
 
The car alone doesn't make you gay but it does send up a bi-curious alert to those interested.

My sister had no idea about the Suburu's reputation before she got hers. Then she noticed she was having to turn down women hitting on her much more frequently. She almost died when I showed her a photo of a parking lot for a big LPGA tournament. It looked like a Suburu convention.

The first real-world example of the Suburu/lesbian connection I encountered was at the loading area of an IKEA. I was helping a friend get the stuff home because I had a car with real cargo capacity and experience assembling IKEA stuff. In the next space were two women trying figure out how to get their purchases into their Suburu. I lent a hand. They were very nice but it didn't take long to get the feeling they weren't just friend shopping together. They also lacked any ability to perform #D object manipulation to model how something would fit before jamming it in. (This is one of the areas in which men and women differ, on average.)

In the process of showing them how to make it work while still allowing them to drive the car, one picked up a bag of items she said was their Xmas stocking stuffers. Several dozen 'Xena: Warrior Princess' calendars for the upcoming year. I smiled and just said, "Ah, very thematic." They both agreed.
 
When I first came back to the US(around '98) from living 10 years overseas, I bought a '97 Miata thinking they were cool. Great drive! And it was stickshift. After about 6 months I traded in for a Eclipse GS-T. Why? Because I felt it wasn't manly enough. Not enough ponies, too small, yada, yada...:oops:
Now, when I look at a Miata, I think it really is a "chick" car. Even with the sportier version out there.
Do I think a person is gay when I see him driving it? Not really, well, maybe a little. By the way, I now drive an Armada and am married and have 1 child (validation ;) ).
 
[quote name='sarausagi']Gay? I don't think so. A fine sports car, especially for the CHEAPASS who can't afford a BMW Z4 or isn't able to find a mint Del Sol. Although, quite honestly, the handling is quite better than the Z4 and it's just as reliable as the Del Sol without some of the build problems.. If you don't need the space [cargo] and have no kids and no immediate plans of kids, then why not get a cute little car you like? How is driving a white box, vanilla car make you any more straight or gay? Or do all men have to drive Hummers, Excursions, and Corvettes now? I would rather a guy have a Miata than a Mustang.

Seriously, the Roadster just gets NO respect in the US. Pontiac messes it up by adding half a ton of weight to it, Saturn rapes it and makes it look like some bubbly VW clone, and every other make just seems to think it's pointless to make them. I'm pretty sure 9/10 of you guys would love to drive this
[/QUOTE]

More reliable than a Del Sol? Really? I'll give you the fact that it performs better, but reliability hell no. My mint Del Sol implores you to reconsider.
 
Also if you are really fat I would avoid buying a Miata. Me and my wife were driving to Charlottesville one day and a fat bastard was driving in a Miata with the top down, and my wife said he looked like Donkey Kong in Mario Kart.

Your Del Sol has no ragtop problems, lighting problems, or shift problems?

Consider yourself luckier than when I won the $99 360.

You mean Targa? There are some with leaking problems, but that is a simple fix. We had ours past 250k with zero issues.
 
Without reading the thread itself, I just wanna reply to the name of the thread.
"Am I gay because I drive this car?"

Well, I showed my wife the pic and she said "that's a cute car."
