Just got my '07 GT a couple of months ago. Girls love the car. I also have an '01 GT and girls usually said something like "Oh, cool, this is the first time I've been inside one." "Can you teach me how to drive stick shift in your car?", haha.

Seems like the Sypder, specifically is definitely more of a "Chick" car. Definitely looks less masculine. The coupe, more neutral, and if its a GT a little more for guy, and the air kit will definitely give it a more "masculine" look.

Look at it this way: every guy can appriciate a Mustang. Mustangs are sexy cars, with big powerful engines, and they're pretty much regarded to be badass all across the board. But when a guy drives past a bunch of chicks in a Mustang, the chicks all think "that guy is compensating for something," whether it's true or not. The 4g Eclipse is a chick car, more or less, so when a guy drives past a bunch of chicks in an Eclipse, they all think "wow, that's such a pretty car!" I'm perfectly okay with driving a chick car, because chicks love it. Mine also happens to be a GT, so chick car or not, it's got *****.

I just bought an 07 eclipse and I'm a girl I think this 4G is a neutral car. But if you want to make sure that its all guy then get a black GT eclipse, that is not a girls car! Most girls don't usually care about the power so they will probably get a GS like me. And if you can't afford a GT then just add a throaty exhaust, rims, and a body kit and theres no way its a girls car anymore, honestly! You will get the girls attention. Trust me Plus all the 06-07 eclipses i've seen driven around town have all been guys driving them suprisingly.

Hahaha. I totally agree with you. I made sure I got a black GT why I purchased my last two cars. My new 4G had to be brought in from about 120 miles, because they weren't any of them in the area dealers, Black GT with all the options. I definitely don't feel girly in my car. Also,although the Spyder model looks very nice, it totally screams "Chick Car" in my opinion. What do you think?

Even though Ive owned countless DSMs and 2 3Gs... Eclipses still can be considered effeminate cars... if theyre done incorrectly.
