Do girls look at the performance specs of cars at all?
Doesn't help that between the JDM spec models SS-I through to SS-III none of them have any tell-tail signs of being any different from the outter appearance except in 1998 when the SS-III got extra pieces of body kit around the corners and a WRC style spoiler. My old '96 SS-III got pointed out as a girls car many times, whereas the ST205 bumper and bonnet have more of an aggressive look to them which make it look more like a mans car even if one had no knowledge of it being 4wd manual turbo -------------------- Mike W

We need a start a sticky on how not to make your car look girly.LOL. I seen some ST205 replica's up close and they look no way close to a girls car especially if you lower your car for that aggressive stances. Maybe some manly 18 inch wheels will set it off as a mans car. I owned a mazda miata once and some girls said it was cute. But i made it manly cute. I lowerd it and had a crome roll bar installed. My buddies complemented me on it. Plus it was a fun RWD sideshow doughnut spinning car. I miss that girly looking car. Plus dont we all give our cars a female name. Car = 2nd wife or gf.

LOL Agreed on the GT-4. However, I still don't see non-GT-4 bodied Celicas as girly, at least not after they're lowered and had some exterior treatments. And I'd rock a Miata...however girly they are. My mom has one (solidifies the girl fact right there), but it's just such a good car. Although she has a 3rd gen. If I could, I'd get a turbo 2nd gen...but they're expensive.
