Coupe looks like a cheap mans sports car?

Post by NickSalf » Sun Oct 15, 2017 9:47 pm

I drive an 06 monaco blue coupe & I have just been out for a dinner party with some people from work, and one girl (she was french if that helps paint a picture, she also hates england) enjoyed expressing that she thought my car looked cheap, and said whats the point of buying a car which is half way inbetween a s**t car and a nice car...

can I get an amen from my fellow enthusiasts and say a unanimous f**k you to this girl, the z4 coup is a beauty, & a rare good looking sports car should not be slagged off!

Most people won't like the Z coupe and that's the beauty of it. She probably prefers an RR evoque like the rest of the masses.....

She comes from a nation who created the renault espace. Ignore everything she says :lol:

For what it's worth, the Z4 is a bit of a marmite car for girls. Unsure why. I think it's because it has masculine features, whereas the likes of a porsche boxster is more rounded and feminine.

Should have told her to go to Specsavers OP! :thumbsup:

Nothing wrong with a blue 2006 E86 (even if Monaco may not be the best shade of blue). :rofl:

Don't blame your car or being English, your powers of seduction failed and she blew you out :poke:

:wink:

Anyway just ask her when France last made a good looking sports car, or any car that wasn't un tas de merde?

Should have delicately asked for her choice of alternative 2 seater coupes offering same rwd power at similar pricepoint :oops: then after the short pause whilst the thought bubbles passed between her eyes simply walked away with a nonchalant V sign over the shoulder :D :)

On finance...

Perhaps you could politely ask why she bought the bottom of the range Audi just to get a badge when her budget could probably have bought something better.
