Filler cap on the passenger side? :O Do you have the 2004-2007 RX8? My 09 has it driver side haha so I assumed all the 8's had driver side

No, he just lives in a country where the driver's side is the other side to yours.

It's an absolute delight to drive, the most fun and chuckable thing I've ever driven, and I include the 911 in that equation. My wife loves it, given the choice of the 911, the slushmatic Chrysler and the manual Miata, she'll take the Miata every single time.

Some of us don't fit in Miatar's :lol: but if I had my choice of cars when you picking me up at the airport, I'd choose the 911 every single time :sly:

Both of our Honda's (Civic Hyrbrid and Element) gas tanks are on the left. So by the O.P.'s standards I pass!

The Ford Street Ka!
This thing makes me sick...:sick::yuck:
 
Not only can I not stand this car (especially when painted up to be an M &M), but I get :sick: just looking at something like this, it's a modification that I'd expect to see at a Mary Kay convention:

I read somewhere that on cars with the gas tank on the opposite side of the driver is because if they run out of fuel, it is safer to fill a car with gas on that side in case someone was pulled over on a highway or something of that nature.

If I remember correctly I read it somewhere on the vw forum I belong too.

Only if you have the "Sport" edition. Those are autocross sleepers.

But of course I have the Sport model. And yes, it's an autocross sleeper - you could fall asleep watching it take a pass, or fold the captains chairs out flat and have a snooze between run groups...

That would actually make a ton of sense, except it's unfortunately not true: My Caravan and my Neon, both domestically-engineered Chrysler products designed primarilty for the US market and manufactured within a few years of each other, have the fuel doors on opposite side from each other.
 
You know some "chick cars" have been turned into the most brutal "man cars" ever. best example ever, Shelby Cobra!

which is based on the AC bristol (V chick car ^ not chick car but based on one)

Honestly, The only true chick car I can think of is the Nash Metropolitan which was built and marketed with women in mind.

but still there is the exception V

Forgot about the Dodge La Femme...basically a Dodge Newport with option packages and colors with women in mind. It lasted two years (1955-56).

Then again, advertising cars and car products for women used to be a little iffy compared to today's standards. Nowadays, this ad wouldn't last more than one showing before the hate mail would arrive:



(Mind you, Polyglas radials were pretty unstable and eventually declared awful, but then again, so were Firestone 500s, as they all made the switch from bias-ply in the early-1970s.)

VW Cabs. California gurls are unforgettably loud.

VW Beetle Conv. (Any car with a vase in the dash is going to have a hard time with testosterone)

sdz_1998_Mustang_Convertible_01.jpg

Convertible Mustang's from the 90's (usually six-shooters) with interior panel gaps wide enough to fit crayons through.

For the chick who only wears white and gold with Gucci Sunglasses and owns a carseat for her lap-dog.

BMW Z3. You're sure you won't leave me if I get this for you, honey? AND a raise in your allowance? You're killing me.

Like a G6/Cheesestick.

i.chrysler.ptcruiser.2006.silver.convertible.left.05jun.JPG

PT Cruiser Conv. Because it's called the "cruiser" and is very hospitable to stick on flames and chrome.

Mild mannered Neons. Sacute.

Apparently most of cars are made for women.
So what cars are only for men?

That question got me thinking: what car have I never seen a woman driving? The only car that I honestly can't remember seeing a woman drive is the Subaru Legacy (saloon/sedan). But that's here in Japan. I don't know about other countries.
 
I've never seen women drive Vipers. Though, not much else. Around here, I've seen women drive jacked up trucks and stuff. Nothing is off limits.

My aunt used to commute in her husband's Viper. A fifty-something school secretary showing up at work in a car that probably disrupted classes every time she started it up. :lol:

There's nothing a woman won't drive. Hell... the older women in my family seem strangely addicted to Jeeps and off-roaders... :dopey:

Eunos Roadster
Mazda MX-5 (NA) 1.8i

Are you kidding? I live in the Midatlantic suburbs and I see women driving pickups all the time, and female semi drivers at least once a day. A lot of them co-drive with their husbands. If you didn't want any kids, that wouldn't be a bad way to live.
