The Women & The Cars Of the World

Ever notice how the women and the cars of different countries seem to reflect each other's personalities?
Some generalizations admittedly;
Italian Cars & Women - Firery, Passionate, somewhat high maintenance.
German Cars & Women - Precise, Business like, efficient.
English Cars & Women - Proper, well bred, stiff upper lip.
American Cars & Women - Big, high powered, trendy
Japanese Cars & Women - Smaller, Subservient, obiedient.
Of course these generalities can be said to be equally applied to the men also but since cars seem to take on the feminine personality (we call cars & boats she) the comparison is somewhat valid.
I think it may have to do with the subconscious sensabilities of the designers. Of course with the advent of the "World Car" and of course Womans Lib these generalities are falling by the wayside very quickly.
So What is the S2000? Well if anyone has seen the movie "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" you will automatically KNOW the female character of the S2000.

If my wife saw this post Bieg she would have your balls for breakfast quick smart.
The stereotyping that you are suggesting is not only racist but grossly incorrect (and not just politically).
As the spouse of a 'tough as nails' Japanese lady I can assure you they are anything but obedient and subservient.
