<<<<<<<<<<<<Bill,
I know I will get a lot of flack for this one:
Yes, the MGA was considered a "chick" car. When I was in high school
and college in the '60s, the only MGAs I knew of were owned and driven
by girls. In perspective though, I had a TR3B back then and ran around
with other TR and Healey owners - plus one guy with a Porsche
Speedster. The first guy I knew that had an MG had an early MGB.

That's interesting, because I've been a sports car enthusiast all my life
and I never heard the term "chick car" until the 1990s. Anyway, that's not
the
point. The point is it's stupid to let a few Neanderthals dictate what car
you're going to drive. I can't believe some people pass up the opportunity to
own the best all-around sports car for the money because of the tag some
yahoos place on it.
For an interesting test of the 2008 MX5 Miata take a look at this YouTube:
