Well, poor mileage, rear wheel drive, 8 cylinders, sound of the horn, yeah...
Guess that puts you firmly in the Mercedes or BMW club, then!
EDIT: or Ferrari/Lamborghini, I suppose. Although I've never heard of those (aside from the LM002) going off road.

For us married guys, it would be mileage, reliability, maintenance costs and how many kids plus junk you can fit in the vehicle. The Odyssey fits the bill for all of those. Now if I could combine the NSX with our Z71 Suburban I guess I would have the perfect man and family car.

Not all single guys go for zoom zoom. For me its the car that needs to be fixed the least, get the best milage and fits everything I need to go camping. Can't put a canoe on top of a smart car (though it might be fun to try). I'm quite happy with my Escort wagon. OOPS! I think I just blew my ManCard Platinum application. Maybe if I rushout and buy another M80 and put it above my display upside down...

A friend has one and it’s pretty impressive. Or you could get a Yukon Denali. They don’t do bad for a 6000 pound brick.

Mark, when you own more than one firearm there's no man card required. Your safe Nope, he loses here too. All of his firearms are pink and he wears a spandex body suit when he practices at "Mario's Gun Club and Fingernail Boutique".

Naw, I wouldn't worry about that man card Mark, here's losing the man card. Due to fuel cost I went from driving nothing but 3/4 ton diesel pickups for my long commutes to work over the last several years to this thing... Damn thing sure is great on gas but good lord I get no respect at all from other motorist on the highway in the little econobox, a problem I never had driving my trucks.
