That's what she said...

So, I was just walking away from my a car when a soccer mom told her daughter has the same car. Then she says, "that car is so cute". I was polite in response yet in my head I was thinking, "what the hell, not again, that happened to me in my tC". I thought I would NEVER hear that about my FRS. It shows me it's time to make a man out of this ride this Spring.

Were you all expecting a joke or something? I figured the title would be attractive enough to lure you all in here and then read this belittling information.

Has anyone else had similar comments? If so, please share.

I've had a shit ton of men and women say "it's cute". At first I was like wtf but then I realized that I thought it was pretty cute as well.

My neighbour said "[hopefully nothing happens to] your cute car". I nearly ran inside and found the paperwork I'd need to trade it in.

Another time, I was driving it with a lady friend and went to park in a narrow spot; "You'll never fit that in there!"

Seriously? You're peeved because of this? smh Why don't you accept the spirit in which it was given instead of being all butt hurt.

Ya, as long as she doesn't say it after you drop your drawers then what is the issue?
I do get "well that is a pretty colour" quite often from women (about the car).

Hey, if having women think you drive a cute car isn't your thing and you prefer attracting admiring looks from guys, have at it. Though the Miata may well have been a better fit.

Anyway, I like driving a cute car. Keeps my wife happy. Great ride...nice curves, excellent handling, cute, and ahhm... Er, the car. Anyway.

My girlfriend and a friend from highschool say my car is "sexy." My mom says the car is cute. The guys a work say its sharp. Take it all with a grain of salt. The FRS/BRZ is a nice looking car.

Come on, it's a go-kart. They are absolutely cute. It's a high compliment.

I get more "that's Badass" comments, but my car is lowered with nice wheels and meaty 265/245 tires, turboed with 80mm titanium exhaust.

"Cute" does describe the stock BRZ/FRS pretty well.
