A Miata is cute.....
I would not call my car cute Cute is so vague that it has no meaning. I get it all the time and I have found out that if You can get them to clarify what they are saying, you will find out what they really mean. In my case, on a number of ocassions, it usually means that it is aggressive, yet feminine in shape. I also get "it looks like it is relaxing to drive." I then respond "you don't know the half of it."

that's why women get mad at men all the time... I mean she gives a compliment, and guys are tearing it up...
For the record, I don't think I've ever gotten cute:
"that car is beautiful"
or
"that car looks great"
But in all seriousness... a compliment is a compliment IMO.

I just wish hens would replace the word "cute" w/ the word "sexy" sometimes. I mean, come on, the S2K isn't cute, it's sexier than a woman in her man's flannel shirt!

Remember, most of the people who refer to your car as "cute", also think that a football player's ass is "cute". An equally distasteful thought. On some things, we will just not agree.

Most people using the term simply don't understand it.
The dictionary defines 'cute' as 'interesting but ugly' therefore they are insulting your car without knowing they are doing so.
To say it about your wife or g/f is even worse.

I tend to think the cute comment comes from a lack of ability to properly describe the feeling they have when they first see the car. It's a emotional response.
Regardless of the emotional response it evokes in us, it's a compliment and shouldn't be viewed in any other way. If these people did not like our cars to begin with, they wouldn't say anything at all.
I'm happy just getting the attention. Sure didn't happen when I had my Civic

When a woman says "he's cute" it is the loose equivalent of a guy saying "she's hot", which is precisely equivalent of a guy saying "I want to jump her bones!". Therefore, when a woman says your car is cute, she is really saying that she wants to have sex IN THE CAR, but not necessarily with YOU... then she would say that YOU are cute.
However, when a little old lady says your car is cute, you should be concerned for your safety.
Just my $.02...
