Controversial Question - Girl or guy car? Options

[Supersprynt]

It's a little girl but once you start modifying it - lowering it, adding body parts and a motor it really mans up.

[Culpable04]

It's all a matter of how comfortable you are with your sexuality. For example, (even though I'm a chick) I can look at a lot of these guys and say, Hey, these guys must be really comfortable with their masculinity since they drive a chick car"

exactly, if you have an inner fear of you being anything other than what society call " a man " , then driving a Celica will bother you, you'd find yourself driving a big truck with bull bars and off road tires just to fulfill the lack of b@lls in the sack. so basically it takes a real man to drive a Celica and take pride in it.

fcuk society.

I think anything but a gt-four is a girls car, especially here in the US, with the underpowered versions we got. BUT i think with a few good, tasteful, not pink mods, it can become a man's car. Or at least not as girly.

Chick Car unless its a ST205

Tell that to my Celica.

For the OP, don't be afraid of stereotypes unless it's a Miata.

Sorry my man, unless you do something to that silky smooth front fascia and hood - its a Chick Car

I'll go so far as to label these cars as also Chick Cars

3G Eclipse
USDM Integras
7th Gen Celica GTs
Cavilere (sp?) / Sunfire (I know thats not even fair)

I'm a guy, I like it silky and smooth.

Of course a Celica is a girl, it ends in an A. I call her my baby, sexy, whatever else...

But it doesn't matter if it's generally a girl car or not, if you like it, go for it.

[D-Man]

GATOR... my first car that was my own was a sunfire. It was such a panzy mobile... the second week that i had it... (mind you i was like 16, bawlin in my first car, smoking my smoke and blairing the radio, genneraly feeling cool) these two HOT ass chicks pulled up to me in a convertable mustang, and asked my name I told em my name, and the bitch in the driver seat said; "Oh, Nice to meet you. I've never met a GAY guy before"

[RickJamesBish]

I narrowed my car search down to my sexy Celica or to a '98 Cavalier Z24...needless to say, I think I made the right choice.

[Toyota_Celica_97]

i think celica are not a chick car, only those 2000+ are chick car lol, mostly i see guy drive celica 99-, and alot of high school girl driveing the celica 2000+, or maybe be cause their parent really love their girl and buy them the expensive one and buy the guy the less expensive on haha. but if you want to be manly go and buy your self an tocoma or thundra or an ford maybe an GMC haha.

[Feng123]

lol... not quite the responses I kind of expected.

So it's a girl car but I take it the majority of you guys are "guys".

So why would you drive it?

[GriffGirl]

Who cares why they would drive it. Who are you driving the car for, yourself or your friends? Are your friends paying for the car or putting gas into it? Then who gives a crap? It's your car, drive what you're gonna feel good driving. Yeah, I'm a girl, but most of the people on this site are dudes, and roughly half of them will agree when I say do what makes you happy. If you're out to impress your friends, get a Lexus. If you're trying to prove you're straight, get a big lifted truck - but make sure it's REALLY big and red, too, to prove how verile and well endowed you are(n't)

GATOR... my first car that was my own was a sunfire. It was such a panzy mobile... the second week that i had it... (mind you i was like 16, bawlin in my first car, smoking my smoke and blairing the radio, genneraly feeling cool) these two HOT ass chicks pulled up to me in a convertable mustang, and asked my name I told em my name, and the bitch in the driver seat said; "Oh, Nice to meet you. I've never met a GAY guy before"

See D-Man, even before your giant fear/discomfort with internet man nipples, your gayness shone through.


welcome to the dark side

ST205 = man's car

all the other celicas are belong to girls.

my thoughts exactly........

[azian_advanced]

just wondering how one would categorize a car to be a 'girls' car? is it the number of people that own them? the car's looks?

[parriehunter]

When i got mine everyone was like its a chicks car why would you buy it(this was without seeing it). But once they were able to jump in and go for a drive in it and see it, they were converted. We have the jdm version and I see a lot chicks driving them. Its quite a curvy car and I think that gives it its stereotype.

But hey if like you like driving it, who cares what others think.

I just love the way it handles, my sister and her boyfriend borrowed for a week while they were down and when he gave it back he had a huge smile on his face and said its like driving a go kart.

[Euphoria]

All cars are driven by girls and guys so there is no "girls car" but I do think they are a little bit girly compared to some cars, but still very nice cars, they look more girly with hubcaps more than anything haha, but lowered with nice wheels = pure sex.

this topic came up at a recent celica meet, no girls turned up so it made all of us feel better and that we're not driving hair dresser cars .

[RickJamesBish]

Technically, it's small and cramped, and stereotypical of girl's "proportions." However, I tend to think those curves are damn sexy.

[CelicaBuddy]

My car is forever stamped with the 'girl car' stereotype because my celica is convertible... I guess chicks like convertibles, even though I see plenty of men driving em around (just in general...)
Not that I really care, since I'm a girl, but even when I did all the modification, body kit, rims, etc... I still get that it's a total chick car...

[bseaman_5]

I would consider our celica's a chick car.. I have always considered it a chick car.. Now if it's a stick then it's a little less girly but none the less chick car. Now, as for why do I drive it/own it? It's a sexy little car. I wasn't really into little ricey type cars until I had to buy my own and for the price and reliablity these cars have you can't turn it down! And like almost everyone else as said you can mod these cars and make it more "manly". If it makes you feel any better since you're a guy who is possibly going to buy it, it can be a guy car from the point it belongs to you until you get rid of it drive it to its death.

[terbear4god4life]

i like to pretend my car is a girl when i oil her up
