Same here as it was with the RAV the RX replaced.
No doubt it's a 'chick car' or 'soccer mom' car.

In my area, I would say its a 5 to 1 ratio in favor of the women. My wifey being one of the 5.

You're ok.
Silver is more of a manly color.

Lets see, wife drives the IS and the RX is all mine!! I do get to drive her IS if I'm on my good behavior though.....

We do not see that many RX's in our neck of the woods (excepting the Canadians down to shop). The few that are around here are about equally split between male/female drivers.

You all are mentioning that the Lexus RX 350 is mostly driven by females. I agree, but who do you think drives other SUV's like the Toyotal Highlander, Volvo XC90, Acura MDX, etc ...They are mostly woman. They are all SUV's quite often driven for family purposes.

Around here in Jersey its mainly a womens SUV. Now the FX45, thats a mans SUV. Who cares about the smaller cargo space. Just drive faster twice the amount of times to where you are going to unload your stuff. Isn't driving whats it all about?

I drive the GS400 and she drives the RX330.

I think I'm the 4th person on this thread who drives both a GS and RX. I guess they make a good pair.
