Are E90 owners male or female?

martieg · 05-21-2006, 09:02 PM

I was wondering what percentage of man vs. women buy the BMW 3 Series? I live in the Miami area and the distribution tends to be 75% male vs 25% female (based on a headcount I made during the last few days).

What about age distribution? My guess is that the overwhelming majority is the 25-45 range.

According to BMWNA, it's close to 50/50 M/W.

In LA, the majority of people I've seen driving E90's are chicks...but whatever.

I'd like to know the poll results of the previous VW Jetta.I'm thinking that one would be 99.9999 % Female drivers.

Wow, I guess I was the 0.0001%

Must be their boyfriends or husbands cars then.

I think you ought to rephrase that question to "Are E90 owners on this forum male or female?"

NaTuReB0Y · 05-21-2006, 11:15 PM

the poll in this forum is only a .0005% of all the e90 drivers worldwide

golfpro · 05-21-2006, 11:39 PM

this forum might be .0005% of all e90 drivers worldwide but i would guess the chances are more likely that male owners would join this site rather than female owners.........i would also say a larger percentage of male owners rather than female are doing mods to their cars.....one of the main reasons people join this site

Works for me!
Just like all polls that sample but a tiniest fraction of the population followed by some sensationalist newspaper headlines based on the poll results.

climkt · 05-22-2006, 04:50 AM

this poll would be very skewed/biased towards male drivers. not many women got to car forums, compared to the guys.

Good point.

And when women do surf the car forums, all the men swoon since it's a sausage fest.

Men pant. Women swoon.

i'm female in most ways

Gitta · 05-22-2006, 03:47 PM

I'm female, and I mod my car, and my car has a manual tranny. I spend just about every Saturday detailing my car. My x-husband knows vitually nothing about cars. Maybe that's why I ditched him?
