  1. 1. Are convertibles strictly for girls only?



Recommended Posts

Good people of the GF, please help settle an argument for me, I was out today in the car with one of my mates and with it a being a beautiful March day the good people of Frodsham and Helsby were all out in their convertibles with their roof down, anyways I commented on how convertibles are only for girls but my mate is in complete disagreement and reckons it's okay for us men to also drive them. So instead of having a fight about it, I said I'd put it to the vote on the GF.

Depends on the car but of course it's ok and not girly at all. It's more dangerous,messes up your hair and can be cold, what's girly about that?

Haha, no, I have a fine head of hair for a 41 year old and it's not even going grey. If you want the wind through your hair, get a bike.

 

Do you like cruising around town with your roof down playing shit rap music trying to impress impressionable 17 year olds? Because that's what most fellas in a convertible seem to do. All the while looking like bad tits in a girls car.

This thread is a shock to me. What is girly about convertibles in general? If it is a girls car with no roof, it is girly. If it is a mans car with no roof, it is manly. Nothing I have ever heard implies that convertibles are girly. They are fucking awesome. Unless it is a girls car and then it is for girls.

 

This is a mans car (Chrysler Sebring):

This is a girls car (Nissan Micra)

Vincent Vega, explain yourself because there is nothing more manly than driving a mans car, with the roof down, smoking a cig (cigar preferably) and making every woman one drives past, completely moist.

Who needs to listen to any music, let alone shit music, when you can hear far more clearly the roar of 3.8 liters of Stuttgart's finest turning over at nearly 7 fucking thousand rpm's!?

 

Some folk have just no idea :P

The yes vote is winning Mr Licken, I need say no more.

The only convertibles men can get away with is if it's a classic car like this:

This is my convertible, not quite an E-type though ;)

See the E-Type and MG are iconic, but you have to be over 50 to get away with it. No, the only acceptable drop-top for a man is this:

Ha, I got the MG when I was 26. Being English and living in California meant I pulled it off effortlessly.
