Anyway, people that say v6 f-bodies are chick cars might have an identity crisis were they to see a debadged car. Basically if you can't decide whether or not the car is masculine or feminine when you see it on the road (assuming it is a car driven with its hood closed), you shouldn't consider it a chick car.

A Mini Cooper is a chick car and I would drive one until the wheels fell off.
well said

i dunno about the LT1 but i know the LS1 has mpg comaparable with V6s

and yes mini cooper is definetley a chick car and piece of me dies when i see a guy driving one lol ...but still they are fun on those windy roads
