Smile Sports Car Revolution calls the S a "chick car"

Watching the previews at the beginning of "Sportscar Revolution" on Speed Channel, the host, Tom Hnataw says "...and Chip Herr drives the ultimate chick car".

Now I'm pissed! Anyone who has driven this car KNOWS it's not a "chick car". What a dick. Tom is soooo full of himself anyway.

80% of S2000 owners are male. How can it be a chick car?

Tom just can't get his fat a$$ in the car! I just saw the spot and the guy testing said it was "an awsome car". He is a Miata Champion driver and he spun the S2000. I don't feel so bad now for my couple of spins.

I love their definitive "car tuning" stories.

1. Drop car off at somebody else's shop.

2. Don't explain upgrades.

3. Drive car on wet racetrack in 35 degree weather.

4. Rave about how much better the car is now, despite #3.

5. Spend 10 minutes pimping the sponsors of the "upgrades."

6. Let Kazzer spew nonsense for last 19 minutes of show.

I just watched that episode and was like WTF, "ultimate chick car"? Even the test run they did on it was a little funny. They young dude driving it stated that the S would be "a good 3rd car."

Their opinion I guess.
