yes OP.

car design flips male / female :unimpressed:





generally modern car design is masculine. previous generations were feminine but BMW flame-surfacing, common platforms and modern bling (lights, chrome, interior mood lighting) changed that up.

feminine C class

feminine = curves, tapered edges, smooth surfaces, less-bling, smaller/more integrated grill, small wheel arches, matt blended colours/materials, long smooth lines

male = squared off, sharp edges, blocky flame surfacing, prominent grill/lights, prominent chrome/bling, shiny, power bulges, higher front, jagged lines

How does Acura sound feminine?

You probably the same nikka in a Mercedes.

And Acura designs look feminine?

Shutcho stupid ass up mane.

The Acura ILX is feminine?


What girl you know is driving this aggressive ass car




Just because it’s entry level doesn’t mean ists feminine mane. Ain’t no curves on this car


This is the ladies room after all mane :wrist:

truth hurts :yeshrug:

Mercedes is the only car company named after a female, though...

The little Asian chick that lives next to me has one. It looks feminine in my opinion
Why dude all in his feelings? I never thought I'd see a grown man so emotional about Akira oops I mean Acura.

When I finished grad school and money became really good my choice came down to the Lexus ES and Audi A5 Sportback. I work in the northeast and I have a long commute four days a week. I needed something reliable, comfortable and still somewhat luxurious. My real dream car is the Audi A7 but it did not make sense to spend that much on a car. I ended up going with the Lexus ES250 AWD. It is not sporty but it is comfortable, spacious, reliable, has AWD, and does not require premium gas. So far maintenance has been a breeze and my car note is less than 8% of my monthly income (plus I put a good down payment). Pretty happy with it. I still love Audi more as a fun car brand but from a practical stand point the Lexus made more sense. I looked at the Acura RDX but it has issues with limp mode and the infotainment system is not great, plus I prefer sedans. The Acura TLX is too small and has a similarly whack infotainment system. Too me Acura screams "boy racer car" and I am not on that wave, I prefer understated classy cars.

The Camry and Accord are known for being reliable..always lasting. So shouldn't the same apply to luxury division of Toyota? White girls love those Lexus SUVS..

Just rented a Acura TLX..good zip to it. Strange knobs for the infotainment screen. Kind of like Mazda.

I just can’t get past the name mane.

I feel like if you want a Lexus as a man you should get an Acura instead.

When is the last time you saw a girl drive an Acura?

But Lexus reminds me of a pretty lightskin girl with good hair :shaq::pachaha::why:


Drive a lesser car because you want to feel manly brehs

I already know mane. Porsche Mercedes Lexus Nissans are all feminine ass cars dog. And every Beamer that’s not //M spec.



Masculine Cars would be Chargers, chevys , Acuras and Hondas



Flexible nikkas cars are mustangs and infinitis



Openly LGBTQ Suburu, Jeep, Ford Bronco (non raptor)



BMW M5 CS kills all this shyt..not even fair. Chargers are played out.

Also old and young

For example old man cars are more blocky (Escalade, Accord, Buicks, Lincoln) while young people cars are more sleek and tapered.

I mean if your basing it off of modern day NX and RX yea sure
But older model GS and SC were for live nikkas back in the day. LS and ES were for your standard middle aged corporate man
Now I'd say the IS and RC are obviously marketed for men. Basically calling a whole brand feminine when really only like 2 models give off that vibe is a reach. All the brands have like 2-3 models basically for women (X3,X5,A3,C300,GLE, etc)
