In reading the article online about selling cars by sex, the article (http://autos.yahoo.com/articles/autos_content_landing_pages/284/most-popular-cars-for-men-and-women;_ylc=X3oDMTE1cmlscjRlBF9TAzI3MTYxNDkEc2VjA2Z wLXRvZGF5BHNsawNtZW4td29tZW4-) has this car the Dodge La Femme, which I'd never heard of.

The most famous attempt was the Dodge LaFemme, dreamt up by marketers trying to capitalize on the growing interest in automobile ownership among women in the early 1950s. The car sported pink upholstery patterned with rosebuds and came with a matching purse, raincoat and umbrella. It was outfitted with lipstick holders and painted a new shade, dubbed Heather Rose.

I would so totally have one of these (http://images.search.yahoo.com/search/images?p=Dodge+La+Femme&toggle=1&cop=mss&ei=UTF-8&ni=20&fr=yfp-t-501&b=1)! It would be the only time in my life where I would be completely put together with a car to match the purse, raincoat and umbrella!

here's another link for the car (http://www.dodgelafemme.com/)

What kind of accessories would they put in a car marketed at the gay buyer?

I want a MINI Cooper, does this mean I'm gay?

There's a joke about stick shifts and/or rims floating out there, but it's too late in the week for me to think about a humorous take on it right now...

No, women are exempt.
You would be gay if you drove a Arnold-sized Hummer.

I would love to see SzczerbiakManiac try to squeeze into an original Mini Cooper - it is even smaller than the current one

And while searching for that image, I found a Mini Limo

Ford F-350 Super Duty, not a chance in hell for me. All your Capt. (Although I'd have your Mustang (if I remember correctly) in a hot minute!)

sad to say, the mustang was wrecked this past weekend by its new owner. not to say totalled, but theres no longer a right front suspension on it.

:(

Capt Jack
11-02-2007, 01:42 PM
eh, it'll be back. he loves that car too much to let it go. he was terrified to actually tell me but I know his mom gave him wayyy more grief than I ever could

18 year olds and cars. you know hes gonna wreck at least one of 'em (I sure did)

Snowflake
11-02-2007, 02:19 PM
Wow, 18 year old and that dream car. Yup, bound to happen and it took guts to sell to him! I'm sure you're right, it will be back, I hope so, it's far too pretty not to have a second or third life.

Capt Jack
11-02-2007, 02:24 PM
hes the son of my best friends since grade school. his dads first car was a mustang as well. the kid worked his tail off to earn that car and swore since he was 8 years old (or so) that he would buy it from me when he came of age, so I just "had to" sell it to him (in his mind anyway).

its alright. now he gets to learn how to rebuild suspensions and will surely be more careful. or one would at least hope so

I drive the #6 lesbian car choice- the Honda CR-V. Love it! I wish it was a color other than silver though. :: sigh::

JW Bear needs to be banned from having Avatars. Period.



My bf's dad has an awesome 1969 Mustang ... and he offered to give it to my car-less bf ... but he doesn't want it. Oi.


If the boy has such poor taste, how can he like me??

















Wait.


Don't answer that.

Hahahahaha, JW's avatars consist consistently of the most yummy men. It drives me (and others) to distraction. ;)


But I don't really want them gone.



I just want them at my place. :evil:









And I have no idea what the censored signature was. I couldn't take my eyes off the body inked gorgeous body of perfect art and nature matchup.

Very nice! If money were no object and the object were at hand a 1926 packard roadster (http://www.conceptcarz.com/vehicle/z10897/Packard_Third%20Series%20Roadster/default.aspx) would do nicely, or my dreamcar of a 1926 boat-tailed roadster (http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2007-barrett-jackson-1926-packard-custom-boattail-speedster/) although I would not turn my nose up at the Rolls with a nice Italian Chauffeur!

While looking at a post from CoasterMatt (http://www.loungeoftomorrow.com/LoT/showthread.php?t=6918), I came across Gay Wheels.com (http://www.gaywheels.com/). For all the homosexuals that didn't which cars were gay friendly, you now have a resource.

And yes, the Mini is one of the top picks/
