This is for sale near me. I’m not really an American car guy, but I feel that I need it. Too bad I’m broke.

They also have a ‘67 GT500 in the showroom. That’s actually how I found out the dealer was there, because other than in that window, it looks like an extremely average shop. Though occasionally a red GT-R is parked out front, and that tips something off.

Notice it has a lien title - meaning you would have to pay off his debt? Somehow the term “lady leg spreader” with a Woody-Allen-like buyer doesn’t seem to mesh
But it was worth reading the well thought out and composed ad.

I never comment, but one thing I like about Jalopnik and the community is that I can avoid seeing the sexist, unfunny trash that normally surrounds car culture here. Hipster racism is still racism, hipster sexism is still sexism. Why was this shared on the front page?

In 1994 I visited Mustang Restorations in East Dundee, Illinois. On the showroom floor was a very nice 1970 Boss 302 for 22 grand. I opened the door and sat down. I sure did want that car. I didn’t have $22,000 at the time. If only I had.... Of course only 7 years before that there were countless now six figure mustangs for 6 or 7 grand.

Probably my least-favorite Mustangs are the 71-73 Mach 1. I’m including the Mustang II and the Probe in that assessment. But perhaps not the 79 “Pace car”.

Because something was funny and you get to call them sexist and racist and other exaggerated reactionary terms instead of directing them at me.

I’m not even clicking the link. I somehow get the feeling this is just yet another “original” variation of the actual-original Jeep listing on Craigs a bunch of years ago (at least 6 years, because I remember where I was living when I first read about it). It’s all just rehashed crap now. It’s so unoriginal that they fail to even incite toilet-humor level giggles from me...

Regardless of the taste-less language used in a seller’s ad or in a link to other automotive content, I’d like to see better judgement by Jalopnik than to be have language like “this lady-leg-spreader” repeated.

Remember that whole conversation a while back about “gee, I wonder why more women don’t go to car events?”
Exhibit A: unfunny shit at our expense
Exhibit B: dismissive shit from people who are in the position to do better
Y’all reap what you sow, remember that the next time someone whines about his wife vetoing a fun car, “making” him sell one, or otherwise not caring about cars. Why the hell should we, if this is the price of entry and the sexist shit only gets more blatant when we dare show up to events?

First off, the ad assumes anyone interested in buying this car is a straight dude looking to get “chix, bro!”
Secondly, it furthers the seriously negative stereotype that sex can be purchased with vehicles, and that women are the rewards for having said vehicle. Basically we’re never drivers ourselves, just the shallow sex machines prizes that materialize as soon as HOT CAR is detected. Not very flattering.

Hopefully you do no object to me calling that car ad sexist. Can we agree on that to start?
Nice car, I’ll give it that much. But the ad is sexist. The author of this Oppo post opted to join in and cheer on the ad’s sleazy content.
The author and forum could have called out the car ad. He didn’t. How about calling those kinds of ads rude, sexist or passé?
If you continue to disagree with me, I accept that. Hopefully you accept my view.
In any case, it’s a nice car.

Number 1: The American Dream is the Corvette, not the Mustang. Number 2: Women don’t care about cars. Seriously, Doug DeMuro proved it with his Ferrari, lets please move on. I have a Corvette and the only thing my gf remarks on is how the base suspension means its somewhat comfortable to ride in. She doesn’t care about the V8, exhaust, or stick shift (other than the fact that she thinks I shift very smoothly). None of it matters guys.
It’s like this: women who dress up to go to bars wear those outfits not to impress men, but to impress other women. Same with cars. Men might try to impress women with their cars, but they’ll only gain attention from men.

Yes. I think anybody without even the dimmest sense of humor and/or intelligence knows this article was never intended to be taken seriously. Loosely throwing out the term “sexist” demeans those situations that truly necessitate this label. Going all up in arms about clearly a joke is just plain silly... Especially when women comedians/bloggers/etc do the exact same thing to a totally different reaction.

All the starts for you. This post was a terrible let down from Opposite lock. One of the best things about Jalopnik is how well they’ve avoided and event countered sexist stereotypes in car culture, and it’s sad to see the community is not up to the standard the parent website got us used to.

it doesn’t need to be serious to be sexist. It’s a bad joke. It’s a tired retread of years of CL ads with a generous sprinkling of sexism. No one is up in arms about this, its just a few comments saying that this ‘joke’ is lame. Calling minor things like this ad sexist in no way lessens the impact of the word when referring to larger issues.
