Hello. My name is Lexi, and yes - I am female. I love cars and have for quite some time - my favorites being the 1970 Dodge Charger R/T, the 1970 Plymouth Road Runner, the 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle, and the 1971 Jensen Interceptor. If you couldn't tell, I prefer muscle cars to most things. I also am a fan of trucks and older SUV's - such as the Ford Bronco and Jeep Cherokee. I thus prefer older vehicles with high performance and/or a certain ruggedness to them.
Besides that, I would like to disagree with one thing you have said - that gender has an affect of what cars people like. Though it might be true for some, and to a degree, it is mainly advertising that is directed toward males and females that decides this.
Hope this was some help
