and a chicks car

No more so than the s2000. Plus, I'm sure the dad is already out of high school, and as such won't be swayed by all the cries of "Oh noes a chick car!!!! Better buy a Honda Civic with a wing and type-R sticker instead!":roll:

I'm one of the biggest bimmer fanboys you'll ever meet, and even I know the Z3 is a chick car. The Z4, on the other hand, is a bastion of masculinity. Beautiful car. The Z3 was a german Miata.

The Z4 is the ugliest car I've ever seen. I feel like gouging my eyes out every time I see it.

I agree that the Z3 is a BMW Miata, but as long as it's fun to drive, who cares?

Looks like a Lotus. A lot better than a Miata (chick car). Miata is not for a middle aged man, its hardly even qualified for a young individual.

For 18k you can find a 2-door Mercedes from the 500.

High milage S2000 or a mazdaspeed Miata

Dude in America the BMW 300 series is considered a chick car. Thats so fvcking stupid. And trucks are considered a real man's vehicle. Morons.

You mean to tell me this is a more feminine car look than this?

How about an old school ~60s car? You can get some for very nice condition in that price range.

Hey, I LIKE the Z3. But the styling is somewhat reminiscent of the Miata...granted, with a much better grille, and that cool "gill-slit" effect on the sides of the hood.

How people can like the Z4 over the Z3, though...I'll never understand.
