This is so obviously wrong that I feel I must correct the record.

The girliest car is the Mark I. When it came out real GUYS bought a TR-7 or maybe a Fiat X1/9. Girls bought the Toyota 'cause it was safe and reliable. Need more, even the "Z" car was really called Fairlady and if you look up the ownership records it was the highest ever proportion of female buyers of sports cars. Personally, I drove a Fiat 124 spyder back then.

The MKII was a car for posers and wannabees. Some girly types thought it was cute like a baby Ferrari (those people bought the NA automatic version). The turbo guys REALLY wanted a turbo Supra but couldn't afford it. Boy did I wish I had more money back then.

The MKIII isn't girly, it's the gay guy's car (don't tell my wife, I've kept it from her for 25 years).

BTW, no need to thank me. The truth is it's own reward.
