Wow.. SO many stereotypes. I love speed, but I dont know if that fits me into this racer class. As far as "girl" cars. I think that term is pretty weak. I prefer any car that has a good combination of style and performance. I've owned about 8 cars that are worth mentioning, all pretty good combinations of speed and style in their own right. The only "girly" car I've owned and still own is my 00' Prelude. (Which I have just ordered wheels, rims, and a whole new suspension setup for. Which is just the beginning.) Every other car, I dont look at it and say.. oh would this fit a female image? Is a Lotus Espirit a girly car? I'd hope not. That would sure deflate the ego of the guy I sold it to.
I'd like to think that just because I am a female, doesnt mean I am any less of a car enthusiast. Since settling in the U.S., Ive decided to live life to its fullest, and driving is one of the greatest of pleasures. To live by this, on a business trip to L.A., I am stopping by a Pasadena Porsche dealership.. to see how well I get along with a Porsche GT3. Guess I am not too girly, since I dont want a VW Beetle, or an eclipse.
