I've had a Corsa GSI for a while and was planning to get another lower mileage tidier one, but they're getting rare.
So i thought what about a 1.6 Tigra? I rarely have rear passengers anyway so rooms not an issue, but i'm concerned they look a bit hom. I thought maybe a black one with black wheels and lowered would be a bit butcher/less mincing.
Opinions?

Unless you are a bird or a gay, then no, don't buy one.

I think they are awesome.
If you think they are gay, you are obviously concerned about your own masculinity....

I think they are a bit more girly than Corsa's, but not gay.

I would buy one as a project car... But it wouldn't look like a Tigra if my plans went ahead....

Not really a car to my taste. However a mate of mine importet one from Germany, that is quite manly (for a Tigra, that is...)!
(rather large pics)

Imo, as soon as you start putting on bodykits and spoilers etc. the gayness really kicks in!

Have you looked at the pics!? 
But to answer your question: Yes, yes they do! However in Germany it is allowed for the rim to pertrude from the arches as long as all of the tyrepattern is covered by the arch. Hence the flared arches and stretched tyres on most German cars!

Neither here mate! People just don't seem to care, and just choose to pay up when stopped by the police!

I think standard they look gay, but with a few mods like badgeless grill, nice subtle spoiler, alloys etc etc they look mint.
