We drive girl cars...
So, a friend of mine used to own a Nismo 370Z. We raced many times and the out come was always unfavorable for him. He didn't like this at all. So his immediate response was, "I lost to a girl car!" He then listed his car for sale, no BS. He was that unhappy about loosing that he listed his car for sale the next day. He picked up yesterday a 2011 CTS-V Sedan and said he wants a rematch. I told him, "that is kind of ridiculous bro, you obviously are going to win." He continued on to state how he wanted revenge, to win his pride back, and he needed to not loose to a girl car. Well, my only argument was Cadillac's are granny cars and that if I see a women in a 1 series it is always a 128i not a 135i. (no offense 128i guys). I just wanted to share this story and get your opinions on the overall gender of who drives 1 series. I'm a guy to clarify on this. He wasn't saying my car is a girl car because I'm a girl. It's because he thinks only girls drive 1 series. My opinion is that I see more women in the e90 3 series. I hardly ever see a 1 series, whether it's a male or female driver.

If someone says "the 1 is a girls car", i respond with "cool story bro". It doesn't bother me to be quite honest. I see manly cars being driven by the opposite sex...who cares? I've seen M3's, STi's, EVO's, IS-F's, C63's, GT-R's and even a Porsche GT-3 RS being driven by female's. Clueless people are just jealous .

I would say your friend is 1. very insecure, and 2. foolish to sell a car over losing a race. Sounds like he/she is a mile wide and an inch deep.

I guess he didnt like loosing , see what you have to come to terms with is that , there is always someone faster than you . Just be happy with what you drive.
CTS-V is still the wrong car if you want to win drag races. 135i with tune and Bolt ons would give a V a run for its money

Exactly, as more and more Sport cars come with automated transmissions the number will continue to grow.

Well I think all of us know a guy like this, just laugh it off...let him have his push rod ohv 6.2 liter monster car is a beast but how does he go from a car that's a Samurai sword on the roads to a sledge hammer car that tips the scales at like 4000lbs two totally different cars...sounds like he's stil caught up in young men's dick measuring contests... Hed Probably have more fun with his 370z.all I know is that I love my 135i I've had 2 mustangs a cts before the 1 and this cars more "manly" then my v8 mustangs long live 135i!
