MINI Cooper Debuts on Most-Researched List

Nashville, TN – Gaywheels.com, the sole source of information specifically targeted to and about lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) car-shoppers, today announced its list of the Top 10 Most-Researched Vehicles during the fourth quarter of 2007. The entry-level Toyota Yaris and the Saab 9-3 held the top two positions for the fourth consecutive quarter. The MINI Cooper made its debut in the 10th position.
“The Gaywheels.com reader has shown a clear preference for vehicles from gay-friendly companies,” said Gaywheels.com founder Joe LaMuraglia. “A perfect example is the MINI Cooper. Prior to 2007, MINI wasn’t on our gay-friendly list and barely registered on the server logs. They changed their policies in 2007 and the MINI Cooper has risen in popularity since earning it the #10 spot for the last three months of 2007.”
