For some reason when I had my Z3 which I purchased when it was a 2 year lease trade-in and not a 13 year old car always received positive and interesting conversations with people from all walks of life interested in the car and always complementary. I only had my friends busting me all the time that it was a chick car. The Box I’m not getting the chick car comment just the hey a-hole nice Porsche from across the street or cars at stop lights yelling out the window..
wow. that's too bad. I've gotten dozens of nice comments. Being in New Jersey and all it's always surprising to me.

I have a few friends who claimed it was the chick car too. I quizzed them on their knowledge of the 550 Spyder, a mid engine purpose built roadster, and how it was designed specifically to win races for Porsche. They'd never heard of the 550...
That seems to be the theme with folks who call it a chick car, they really don't know much about the brand.
