Default Name some cars that girls seldom drive

Very few girls drive Subaru STis or WRXs. I don't know why, other that these cars are not very cute looking. To me, that is their appeal.

well although some rich girls technically do own Ferrari's they can't drive them worth a damn... anyway I don't see many chicks in any gen. MR2 especially not the Spyder, guess they prefer miatas...

Not true!

EVO and STI are just too aggressive and "unattractive" looking for girls.

I've seen a woman in her early 30's in a a silver STi with her baby in the back seat. One of the senior residents at my program drives a Porsche 911 Carrera (993).

I've never seen a girl drive a Mazda FD RX-7.

I've seen a few in NSX, Porsche 911, Evo, plenty in S2000, Miatas, MR-Spyder, blah blah blah...

So what is it about big ugly SUVs that draw a lot of women drivers?

The tall driving position; the roominess to haul their families/children about; etc.

Yeah, my SO likes the very ugliest and biggest SUV's. She likes the high-up seating and dominating traffic. Original Hummer is one of her dream-machines.

But rare to see driving? How about 911TT's, Z06 vettes, Vipers (any type), Camaro SS's (or Firehawk), BMW 850's (or 2002's), Integra Type R (though I see more now in RSX-S's), older GTO's & Chevelles. And I agree with the STi/Evo. Sure female drivers exist but I think most of them don't want to spend on performance at the expense of fashion.

I'm not why but I don't see many chicks driving G35's (or of course 350's).

The "cute" smaller cars all have plenty of female drivers, even performance machines like Miatas, Z3/Z4, current model MR2's, and S2000's.
