Your opinion is what it is and respected...... mine is: i don't get why a car has to be masculine though? I mean i didn't buy my Z or the former S2000 because either one made me "look" a certain way. I bought the cars because for the price they were the best performing car. Only someone with low self esteem would need a car to look a certain way. Now i'm not saying i would drive a pink pinto just because it had a 460 in it with a blower, but i don't need a car to make me who i am. This car is a passion of mine but to be honest i don't care what other people think of what i drive. I know why i drive it. To me the S2000 looks a little plain jane but when you drive one it totally changes the way it you look at it. There is no other car to compare to the S2000 in its class, thats why i compare them to the Z. I wish i still had the S2000 so i could compare them side by side and drive each one back to back. Maybe i will by one next year......evildky wrote:the S2K is a fine car......for a chick some cars are just not masculine, ever drive a miata, it's impossible to drive a small convertible and feel masculine, I feel the same way about the Z3, Z4, MR2 mk3, I know first hand the potential of the S2K, I bud just got a CR, it's an amazing car just not a masculine one and as much as I hate GM they did a good job of making the sky look a bit more masculine....but it needs and L6
And if you've ever driven the sky turbo you would call it a girl car before the s2000. Those sky's live up to the saturn name and i am sure the solstice lives up to the pontiac name=JUNK... thats why GM wouldn't slap the Chevy badge on either one. And as far as "hating" GM, that sounds like someone who doesn't know American cars. Look at to days domestic market, GM is stepping it up to compete with the world market, introducing the first full size SUV Hybrid. The have flexfuel offered in over half their vehicles. They are making changes, its ford and dogde that are falling behind. I actually heard Diamler Chrysler might quit making Dodge's for awhile.... i work for a manufacturing company that forges and machines parts for vehicles around the world, such as - Pretty much everything in Europe including Porsche, International, Ford, Allison, GM, Diamler-Chrysler, pretty much every major car company.
