“A common theme amongst the vehicles represented is
that they are all niche, stylish representatives of their respective
segments,” said Gaywheels.com founder Joe LaMuraglia. “The list
also shows that LGBT consumers are drawn to a myriad of body styles and price
points.”
The Audi R8 held its position on the top spot of the list
for the second quarter in a row. The Mitsubishi Outlander and the Mazda Mazda3
knocked two vehciles from VW out of the 3rd and 4th spot
respectively. VW’s Golf stayed in the
second spot. The VW Jetta and Eos are down in the ranking but hardly out.
The Top 10 Most-Researched list is based on website
statistics gathered from Oct 1, 2009 – December 31, 2009 from Gaywheels.com’s
new car data partner vLane.com. Gaywheels.com publishes the Most-Researched
list quarterly.
