You'll applaud, the locals will stone.

At least the Iranians let women drive. In other news the Saudi's are deeply offended by the Iranian woman-mobile.

So its a clapped out old Peugeot 405 with an Auto and GPS in Pink. Women will no doubt love it used:

Then again if Australian women buy the 1 star NCAP craptacular Barina then anything is possible.

I hated the Samand before this, because it pushed my other car out of production (Paykan/ Hunter), now I can hate it more because they are making a chicks version.

This is nothing new, how many cars do you see here which are targeted at women - Hyundai Excel, Nissan Micra, GTS, etc.

That is an almost perfect description of the majority of BF & FG FPV GTs and F6s owned by forum members.



Auto trans is feminine? bwahahahahahahahahahahhahahaha

Hopefully there isnt a wagon version capable of carrying a tonne in the back and a suspicious red button on the dashboard (warranty void if button pressed)

I can think of a lot of cars not marketed at females (at least they don't say that they are) that look a lot more feminine than that!
