Default IS-F nomination for the 2007 Top Ten Gay Cars List

I see the IS-F and see some resemblance of the BMW 3 Series Coupe. It ain't that the cars look similar but I think both cars doesn't fit both the Lexus and BMW image, respectively.

As you guys/gals remember, the BMW 3 series coupe was voted 1st runner up for the gayest car of the year awards by Wheels24. Do you think the IS-F deserves to be nominated for 2007 Gay cars list?

If you ask me, I don't know, maybe, ahhh, what the heck, yes!! but what I'm completely sure is that the car was design in collaboration with Guy Laroche or some other fashion designer, who knew everything about the fashion industry but nothing about Lexus.

You really are an unfriendly bunch on these boards, no? What's wrong with this thread? Not PC enough for you?

LOL, i could create my own list of the gayest cars......... but i met a guy the other day who was gay driving a S65 (2007) model. i hate people who stereo type about who drives what. Honestly the IS model line in general is rather feminine if you ask me. Everyone i have seen locally is a teen girl or a middle aged woman...........

I guess that is why it appealed so much to my wife, ill stick with my supercharged tahoe. thank you!

Relax, guys...it's interesting how the IS has gotten differing opinions. I recall how the IS 250 was named #5 "straightest car"...so would 'glamming up' the IS-F make it to the top-ten gay cars list? Maybe it's the styling, lol.

OTOH, Jeremy Clarkson's review of the IS 250 suggested that "this is a car only for men" ...he thought that no woman would ever drive the IS. So does that make the IS a more gay-oriented car?

Ironically however, the actual gender spread shows that nearly half of IS drivers are women IIRC. And when I see the 2IS I think it's about 50/50 men/women. Of course gay/straight I cannot tell from the driver/car view.

Maybe it's the color?

Here's the link to JD Power for the IS. Scroll to the bottom of the page and it gives the demographics for the '07's. Pretty even for male vs. female as the previous poster indicated.
