A coworker had one and, yes, she was in the right demographic. https://www.gminsidenews.com/threads/saab-brand-most-over-represented- among-gay-and-lesbian-buyers.78107/ I don't know what the attraction is but there seems to be one. Miata have the same rep, though mostly gays. This one had me worried. https://gaycarboys.com/sexy-men-drive-2021-toyota-yaris-cross/car-reviews- by-brand/toyota-reviews/ I didn't even know they existed. As far as the US is concerned my 2018 hatchback was the last one based on the Toyota platform. The sedans that year were Mazda 2s, and the nameplate was dropped entirely in 2020. The Japanese must like the name and recycled it into something completely different. As for knowing cars any red blooded American boy could spot a '57 Mercury Turnpike Cruiser two blocks away and describe how it differed from the less expensive Montclair. My knowledge drops off rapidly in the '80s and today they all look the same to me. There are a few exceptions and sometimes I will wander across a parking lot to identify a car that caught my eye. As everything became SUVs even Porsche proved they could make a butt ugly car if they put their minds to it.
