I Love My Car, But This is Ridiculous

The South African automotive website Wheels 24 polled readers to select the world's "gayest" and world's "straightest" cars. The results:

Gay car votes:

1. Peugeot 207: 7155 (pictured)
2. BMW 3 Series Coupe: 3378
3. Jaguar XK: 2571
4. Honda Civic Hatch: 1776
5. Alfa Romeo 159: 1293


Straight car votes:

1. Audi RS4: 9824 (pictured)
2. Toyota Fortuner: 2629
3. Dodge Caliber: 1808
4. VW Jetta: 979
5. Lexus IS250: 936


Readers also voted for the car they'd like to approach from behind, i.e., the one with the sexiest rear-end:

1. Alfa Brera: 6608 (pictured)
2. BMW Z4 Coupe: 5722
3. Opel Astra GTC: 2270
4. Renault Clio: 1071
5. Nissan Tiida: 505


Personally,
  • I hate Audis; the "straight" car should have been a Benz SL.

  • The "gay" car is a tie between every French car ever made.

  • But I gotta agree on the Alfa Brera.
For the record, I drive:



a 1979 MG, in British Racing Green.

Phew! Thanks for the additional information. I was worried it was "Safari Yellow."

Cogito:

Thankfully, no. That color only works in California--or, as you say, the jungle.
