So you can talk about a car having masculine looks, I dont mean that, I mean, what car makes you see the guy in it and think - wow, he's manly/masculine.

Im not necessarily talking about muscle cars (though that might be the right answer) or flashy showy cars.

Just a car that makes you think, grown up. Manly

Smart for Two or MX5. You have to be really confident in your own masculinity to drive either smile

A Volvo estate

Nothing to prove to anyone, not showy, classy and does its job perfectly for people with nothing to prove

See also a VW Passat, but not a Skoda suburb as you only buy one of those because it’s cheaper than a Passat.

I reckon most blokes would love to be seen driving pretty much anything from any of the Mad Max films.

Popping to the shops in a Le Mans Bentley Blower or a Fiat S76.

Unfortunately it requires regular washing or it starts to smell. Careful how you polish it, too.

I can't semen driving something like that they would look like a real knob. It would certainly take some balls.

As an aside I wonder what car the OP drives.

What, that is the OP's car yikes

But apart from the houmous contributions, the most manly car is a clapped out 1971 Chevy Nova two door with a warmed up 396 and steelies, of course.

Well, there's a few ways to take this:

1, Manly means butch, testosterone fueled, eats raw steaks and drinks 17 pints on a Friday. That guy drives a Merc AMG with an obnoxious exhausts and calls everyone brother despite being and only child

2, Manly means a real gentleman, someone who treats his family as the most important thing in the world. That guy drives something modest so his wife can have a brand new SUV. He's in a 10 year old Golf GTi

3, Manly is an outdoorsy type, sleeps under the stars and catches his own food. He's in a Jeep with huge wheels, a winch and a bull bar

4, Insert another interpretation here and match it with a suitable car

Tell you what he's not driving though... A Tesla.

Or the real answer being a BMW.
