‘The latest Top 10 Most Researched list supports the results of our recent LGBT Auto Owner’s survey,’ said Gaywheels.com founder Joe LaMuraglia. ‘Volkswagen and Audi are two brands that are over-represented by Gay Men in the study and those brands represent 40% of the Top 10 list.’
Other brand positions further supported the recent survey results; the Saab 9-3 has consistently been on the most-researched list and that brand is the most over-indexed for both Gay Men and Lesbians.
‘All the vehicles on the most-researched list are expressive, stylish vehicles and with the sole exception of the Maserati GranTurismo, all are fuel efficient and come from gay-friendly manufacturers,’ added LaMuraglia. ‘This is also in line with the purchase reasons from the study. The top purchase reason for Gay Men is styling and for Lesbians is fuel economy.’
The Top 10 Most Researched list is based on website statistics gathered from January 1, 2009 – March 31, 2009 from Gaywheels.com’s New Car section. Gaywheels.com publishes its Most-Researched list quarterly.
