http://cache.gizmodo.com/archives/images/mini_conc ... - GoodOleBoy, on 07/06/2009, -0/+28FTA: "A Mitsubishi Eclipse, Ford Mustang and Dodge Charger each practically ooze testosterone."
The Eclipse oozes something, but it ain't testosterone. - TomKarpik, on 07/06/2009, -1/+16Hummer = douchebag
Civic w/ gay spoiler = douchebag - whahaa, on 07/06/2009, -1/+15flamboyantly gay.
- Snakedal337, on 07/06/2009, -0/+13Yeah.. Actually my dads minivan could, by doing 110.
- Bloodwine, on 07/06/2009, -2/+14Many sports cars seem to have undergone a metrosexual transformation.
RX8 vs. the old RX7 and the 350Z vs. the old 300Z are a couple examples.
They have gone from being Indiana Jones to being Calista Flockhart's earring-studded bitch. - Spandia, on 07/06/2009, -1/+13Why do we need a researcher on this when we have all the experts at Digg?
- OafBoaster, on 07/06/2009, -1/+12Eclipses are extremely feminine. The new one looks like a woman's midsection hips and all. I have no problem with that, but I wouldn't really want to drive around in a vag compartment. The older DSMs were coveted by young girls. That's the reason the Plymouth Laser/Eagle Talon etc. all came in colors like Teal and Purple. Small front-wheel drive 4 cylinder cars aren't exactly the pinnacle of masculinity in any case. And I love how they ask some guy named "Oliver" about how tough his car is. I can only picture a ginger with a pre-pubescent voice and a staggering amount of freckles extolling the virtues of his mitsubishi manclipse convertible. Drive your car because you like it, not because it looks like your johnson and projects your superiority complex. What a ridiculous study.
- Brooks007, on 07/06/2009, -0/+10"Slice and his Vienna colleagues hope their work one day may help designers determine what parts of a car, such as the headlights, grille or windshield, they can change — and how — to project traits that make cars more appealing to different kinds of customers."
Designers already do this...that is why the cars look the way they do. Any decent designer can figure out which part to change to get the look they want. This study is pointless. - watcht, on 07/06/2009, -0/+10"can you blow by me when i'm doing 100?"
A 100 what? Dicks? - bennison, on 07/06/2009, -0/+8If that beetle could talk, it would sound like the turrets from Portal.
- smemily, on 07/06/2009, -0/+8I think the study is more interested in people that actually choose their cars from a myriad of options, not people who just take what they can get.
- LaughingMan11, on 07/06/2009, -0/+8Looks like Project Satan to me.
- inactive, on 07/06/2009, -3/+10i think it means you're a broke mother ***** who never gets laid
- smemily, on 07/06/2009, -0/+6Oh wow you can PASS people?!? I yield to your coolness and your big penis. What a MAN you are, passing people on the road. Give 'em what-for!!
</s>
And non-sarcastically, I correctly guessed your age without even checking your profile. - charlie6969, on 07/06/2009, -0/+5I guess my PT Cruiser just means I am an old fart.LOL
- BuzzFriendly, on 07/06/2009, -2/+7Prius= I am a pussy and want the entire world to know I am.
- JCEEZ, on 07/06/2009, -0/+5Thank you for validating all negative stereotype of people that drive mustangs. I wonder, is your tribal tattoo on your left or right arm?
- mikbunn, on 07/06/2009, -0/+5"Slice, a shape analysis researcher"
And everyone said that art degree would go to waste. - mehan, on 07/06/2009, -0/+5what? the Lancer is even more of an econo-box POS than the Eclipse.
- xenuxenuts, on 07/06/2009, -0/+5Never get behind anyone with a ladder rack, they generally drive very slow and aren't in a hurry to get anywhere.
- malloryhoke, on 07/06/2009, -0/+5totaled them both but used to drive a VW jetta and a passat-- I think that means my personality is bad driver..
- JCEEZ, on 07/06/2009, -0/+5I don't own a Lancer, or would I want to. My 2 room mates, one has a G35 coupe, the other has an EVO, and the EVO blows it away performance wise.
The G35 on the other hand is definitely 10x more luxurious. - JoeMondo, on 07/06/2009, -0/+5That explains why ***** are so drawn to buying those giahnt SUV things.
- woofers07, on 07/06/2009, -0/+4Audi, I pay a ridiculous premium (insurance and maintenance) to drive a car that has four distinctive rings on the front as a status symbol.
-Audi owner.
At least I can admit it right? - strictnein, on 07/06/2009, -0/+4Does your mom know you're borrowing her car?
- OLTP, on 07/06/2009, -0/+4I don't think you caught that the "guy" was Gwen Oliver.
- pstroll, on 07/06/2009, -0/+4The new Camaro isn't guido enough for my taste
- amorrise, on 07/06/2009, -0/+4or possibly project Santa, that guy gives me the creeps
- dscan, on 07/06/2009, -2/+5The personality traits of GMs must be "suicidal"
- JayTee44, on 07/06/2009, -3/+6Ford Explorers = bitchy women = aggressive driver
Cherokees = selfish yuppie guys = aggressive driver - Red989, on 07/06/2009, -1/+4Mustangs are horribly made from my experience.
And plus, everyone thinks they're cool when they're driving one even though Mustangs are cheap - Bloodwine, on 07/07/2009, -0/+3Yes I drive a boring car due to my work commute. I drive about 180 miles a day, and no way in hell I am going to do that in a V8.
- defwheezer, on 07/06/2009, -0/+3FTA: "Slice, an associate professor of scientific computing at FSU"
-nope, an Art 'degree' really does go to waste, this dude has a real degree. - Nishnabotna, on 07/06/2009, -0/+3The e30 M3 is the Bees Knees, fried perfection on a state fair stick.
- singebkdrft, on 07/06/2009, -0/+3Which is why i still love cars like the Porsche 944, BMW e30 M3, etc...
- OLTP, on 07/06/2009, -0/+3I like to think the Eclipse looks like a baby squirrel opening it's eyes in the daybreak, eager to go out looking for some nuts.
http://www.thetorquereport.com/2009_mitsubishi_ecl ... - FormerBabby, on 07/06/2009, -0/+2Douchebag with spoiler = x
Solve for x. - mparker21311, on 07/06/2009, -0/+2I have a Chevy Aveo.
What this says about me? It says that I'm a broke douchebag who was too stupid to buy a used Honda. - Bloodwine, on 07/06/2009, -0/+2They don't look very comfortable. Nearly ever PT Cruiser I've seen has been driven by a hunched over 50 yr old that looks like he was stuffed into the driver's seat and is bursting at the seams.
- Bloodwine, on 07/06/2009, -1/+3I used to own a 1991 Camaro Z28, and every Mustang driver (no matter the age or condition of the Mustang) would rev their engine at me at the stoplight.
What do Mustang drivers do these days? I wouldn't know, as I have given up on life and now drive a reliable Camry. Nobody tries to race me anymore. - Skaistrendy, on 07/06/2009, -0/+2I dont understand how you call a Lancer EVO a econobox.. you even mentioned the "souped engine" (haha for using souped..) and suspension. but also has AWD, also that souped engine has a turbo. I think the word econobox went out the window.
(I dont own a EVO since i would not pay $30+ and insurance on one) - gtluke, on 07/06/2009, -0/+2wow that's dumb. take a look on the road and see how many 20-40 year old mustangs you see. go look at the odometer. mine has 200k on it and is 25 years old. I still drive it.
Just not 70's mustangs, but then again there were no good cars made in the 70's - Snakedal337, on 07/06/2009, -0/+2Don't forget to mention your cars base model is about $15k more than a mustang...
- mikbunn, on 07/06/2009, -0/+2Pff, that only counts if you read the whole article.
- inactive, on 07/06/2009, -0/+2I also want to make a living doing worthless *****.
- jeffwmartin, on 07/06/2009, -0/+2They still do it. My girlfriend had a GT convertible and every GT she encountered had to rev their engine.
- bat-21, on 07/06/2009, -0/+2It's an evil squirrel.
- Bloodwine, on 07/06/2009, -0/+2The same is true for trucks with camper shells.
- JoeMondo, on 07/06/2009, -0/+2PT Cruiser says you live in a city house, but might be just outside the city, probably recycle, buy organic food, use a Mac. Implies a cooperative person who tries to be a good neighbor.
