That's funny re ladies car. I just picked up my first Lexus RX350 yesterday. I am a tomboy and have always driven sporty cars that guys have drooled over until my previous and 1st SUV (not a Lexus), as I moved up north of the city 7 years ago. I never heard about these being ladies cars until I just read this. I've never looked at whose driving, as I was staring at the gorgeous car, each time one passed by. I've always loved these SUVS as they have smooth, sleek, sporty lines and have turned my head for the past 10 years. Nicest looking SUV out there if you ask me. It goes like smoke (one of my priorities) - a great passing car. Not a whimps vehicle - lady or man.
