I have a couple of female friends who have chosen their cars strictly for power and performance.
One is driving a bright yellow whatever that car is in Transformers (sorry, I don't pay attention to American muscle car names/types).
The other is driving a new 2013 911. That she paid for, in cash, by herself, because she is single.
Most of the other women I know chose whatever they drive strictly because they have to take the kids to soccer.
Not sure if that helps, just interesting factoids about women and cars.
