I don't get it, what was so funny?

Anyway, the plain model is ok, but honestly I think it this trim it's a very nice looking car. First Toyota I'd consider owning.

Yeah, I suppose it was a little amusing. But I've seen it before, so it wasn't new to me. That, and I have so many gay, lesbian and bi friends it's second nature to accept anything relating to it without question.

I have a large group of lesbian/gay friends as well, but I still like to laugh about gay jokes and whatever. If youre too uptight to laugh about it, you probably arent really comortable with it. Not saying thats the case with you, just in general. If it doesnt hurt someones feeling directly then it can be funny still.

And we have the same Aveo. I love my little car. Over 1000 miles a week and its been good to me.

Is this part of that European law that requires 4" of cushion space between the hood and the engine, in case a pedestrian is hit? Because it really looks ugly.

This image shows it a bit
I've been wondering about this too. Can any engineers in the know confirm this, or can it more attributed to Toyota’s blatant cockiness combined with hideous, industry wide, “me too!” Bangle-esque styling trends.

No, it doesn't bother me. I laugh my @$$ off at gay jokes. I guess since I'd seen that site in the past I just didn't get it. That's all.

I do call the Aveo my little Queermobile actually.

The car looks like they were trying to emulate a big 1940's Chevy or something. Not in a good way I dont like it. Maybe its me.
