In Mike's defense, wasn't it the 6 cylinder engine in his Jaguar that he was
referring to as girly and not the GT6.
He didn't mean to offend you over sensitive GT6 owners, only those with 6
cylinder engines in their cars. Hey wait a minute!!
On second thought....give him hell.

Mr. Thompson sir I must take exception to you calling the GT6 a girlie car.
The driver I have gives you whiplash when stepping on the gas and out handles a
good number of the modern vehicles on the road today. I have made more then
one driver of a supposed macho car eat dirt. By no means does the car I own
suffer from any lack of testosterone!
