yahoo auto news
"Among the most affordable models on our second list, which is limited to luxury or premium models, are the second-place $25,930 Audi A3, with 54.85 percent female primary drivers, and the third-ranked $24,365 Volvo S40 with 53.69 percent."
saw this and was like, hmmm??
i admit i have seen a few female A3 drivers, but majority have been dudes. right??

There are way too many articles about "chick cars" and "gay cars" If anyone wants to doubt my manhood based on the car I'm drining I'll drag out my Elva Courier and put their balls (and their kidneys) to the test.

Sure, go ahead and tell them. And paste a few hundred dollar bills to the note, too. That will save them the stamp for telling you your rates have just gone into the preferred risk pool.

I think A3 does have a special charm to the female crowd somehow. When i showed my A3 to my mom and other lady friends the first time, the very first thing they said Oh it's CUTE!....
No matter how I try to defend the machoism of my ride, it still comes across as cute.
give it up guys, we have a cute car.

When I showed my wife the A3 for the first time, she was like, "it's a hatchback???" WTF???
Albeit, she is a huge American muscle car fan, so she judges cars by a different set of criteria than me. Her judgement is more like from a mullet perspective, rather than a cold, calculating German vantage. LOL
Cheers!

Neelie, good choice of automobile.
Chef, I am with you on the practicality part, I have never understood the American disdain of hatchbacks.
BTW, my wife and I also own a Mini Cooper S. Never get one of these if you don't like hearing "cute" car.

Well, I just bought my 2nd A3 last week and I absolutely love it. However, I must say that I've gotten quite of few looks from the fellas on the road.  So, it's an automobile for everyone!

HAHAHAHA. Ya man, my girlfriend used to say that it was awesome, her favorite car....and to top it off, she had to add that it was CUTE. I'm like, "no no no, look at those eyes! They are angry!! the bi xenons have no feminine attributes, they are pure evil, muscle!"
haha, but i've come to face facts that its "cute"...
