POLL: Wussiest car for a man to drive

I like the mini concept, but after seeing it in person a few times, w/ men in the drivers seat, it just looks wrong and makes me chuckle. Blame society.

The Miata is also wussy (by default, it's power is low) but (by experience) it is fun to drive. The two aren't mutually exclusive.

Anyway, I couldn't decide so I voted cabrio.

Yeah, a V8 Miata sounds pretty sick!! However, how would the car handle with a V8? I'm sure not as well as a little 4. I could be wrong though.



The car is modified with custom engine mounts, and the frame is fortified with some braces IIRC. They are also converted to RWD using basically Fox body Mustang parts converted for the application. Not cheap no doubt, but the one I saw driven was pretty nutty. Without the hood open, you had no idea...although it sounded like a 5.0 Mustang when it was running. 😀

The Miata is RWD to begin with.
 
I drive a Saturn... It's a small wagon. Wussy or not, I like it for gas mileage and handling. They run very well.

I have a Dodge Dakota, and I hate to drive it because of the gas mileage and how poorly it handles.

It seems like this poll has "wussy = to good gas mileage". A "real man's car" has to get no better than 20 mpg.

Arggg.
 
Any SUV. Basically those vehicles just scream "Hey everybody, I'm insecure about my manhood and the size of my penis so I have to drive this huge-ass vehicle so I would look more intimidating".

I think you have the concept wrong. That would be the most masculine vehicle to hide your wussiness. This poll is for the wussiest car. In the wussiest car, you'd have to be pretty secure in your mahood to drive it (or be female or gay).

 
An Hombre (was that by Isuzu?). Almost every one of them I see has a rainbow sticker on it.

<lisp voice>
I love my Hombre
</lisp voice>

Apologies to those offended by the non-PC joke above.

😛
 
Myata is not a fagcar at all
I used to drive one for a year and I picked up more chicks during this time driving this little convertible than most of you probably will during your entire life

It's a wussy car since most of the SUV-drivers are wussies 😛
 
Just saw a guy in a pink Ford Aspire this morning.

At least he was wearing a flannel, and had crap all over the place inside of it...
