| I love it |

I'm a guy and when I was browsing around on Volvo's site, I figured I'd check out the concept cars. Damn, this is one sweet ride! I'm a computer professional and don't really care about changing my oil or doing other maintenance. I'd much rather pay some grease monkey to do it for me. The lighting, the body styling, everything about it screams exotic... but, like someone else said, I just hope the price doesn't scream exotic as well. Can't wait! |
| Very nice car |

The men that are commenting on this car are not the target market. So get over yourselves. Why can't women have a car designed for just them, men have all kinds of stuff designed just for them. Being a business woman, I am dressed up almost everyday of the year. I find this car a great fit for us, not having to open the hood, trim folds down when the doors open, lots of compartment space. If this car goes to market it will be a hit with women. My only concern is what is the price tag going to be on a car with so many amenities. It is a sleek looking car for a woman to drive. |

The idea is an interesting one... However, the fact that you make a car that allows women or men to be totally oblivious to the workings of a vehicle... You don't know how to check your oil, coolant, change a tire. LEARN!!! How can you accomidate ignorance like that. It is still an interseting idea, but the motives for it are not very good.

| Since when have cars been gender specific? |

What a shame that this beautiful piece of design is such a sexist road-show. There are many features in this car that I, as a man and lover of cars, would find enjoy not all men are dim-witted, testosterone blinded grease monkeys with IQs to match the temperature of the day. That the designers think men are reducible to a certain set of prejudices and personality traits when it comes to cars is really, really depressing. Why is it that this exercise in sensible, intelligent, innovative car design has been so trivialized? No men on the design team, except when a woman could not be found to cover a skill area. Excuse me? Over here! Taking this nonsense to its logical extreme. Everything that enabled this car to be built happened because a man designed and built a car in the first place. Once upon a time virtually all engineers were men. Henry Ford was a man. The very foundation that this car was built on is male. So what? Big deal. Let's all grow up shall we and design cars that don't screw up the environment so much (nothing much mentioned about this - are all women really happy to continue driving with internal combustion engines?) Wouldn't people, generally, rather have a car that is gentler on the environment? Why not design a car for professional people regardless of their gender? It would have the features this car has (men in California, and who work in advertising, have pony-tails!). Why not a car for people, like me, a man, who has a life-long love of Formula One, but has spent years raising children at home and prefers elegance of design to Detroit muscle and is a complete loss when it comes to working on cars? What a sad and depressing waste of such talent and such a beautiful car that the concept should have been so poorly marketed and the world divided along such narrow, bigoted and prejudiced lines. |
| That's why men love women..... |

Designed by women for women ? This car looks gorgeous. The slit for lights is menacing. Almost like a woman scorned.... The idea of easy maintenance appeals to the guys too you know . And those gullwing doors are the ultimate show snatcher. The rear is where I love it most. It's sexily proportioned. It's what you get then you cross a Volvo S70 with a Maserati 3200GT. Drop dead. |
