Interesting concept  .  .  .  not sure I agree with all the matchups, but there were some pretty good ones  .  .  .  I think I still prefer having both "models" in the frame though  .  .  .

I don't like seeing the bottom of that boot resting on the hood of the car. Could easily damage the  (I would assume)  meticulous paint job.

Her idea is not to portray the owners, but portray cars in anthropomorphic manner.
Well...Toyota and Kia would probably look like that if they were girls..smile

So, Bentley, Koenigsegg and Auburn are not in the list....sadly...wink

I really like the idea.

Unfortunately, it's a flawed idea. The only people that will be interested (beyond looking at pretty girls) are car fans, and they'll notice right away that the logic is all sorts of screwed up. Rolls Royce may very well be a classic and elegant car that is still over-the-top sexy, but those aren't the people that buy them. Ditto for Hummer and the 64 Impala. People that own 64 Impalas aren't young, good-looking punks - they're investors and old guys that owned one fifty years ago, or wanted one thirty years ago. Even when it was affordable to punks, it wasn't a punk car - a Rockabilly chick would have been a lot more appropriate, or even someone that looks like a Stones groupie.

I thought Chevy was the only one that was bang on. But to be honest, that's the easiest one.

Oh, and the Mercedes one was really, really close. Needs less Caligula Meryl Streep, more Devil Wears Prada Streep.

I think it's a fantastic idea. Unfortunately, it's a fantastic idea for a demographic that won't appreciate anything less than perfect choices.

they specified the manufacturer models; camry and optima.
those are some basic bitch cars;
affordable, uninspiring, utilitarian, low cost of ownership, good gas mileage, dependable family cars.

the human version needs to be a loving house wife. average looking in everyway,  who doesn't have a sex drive and never forgets to pack the kids lunch.

booooooring!

they shoulda done a Prius and just had a model who likes to smell her own farts.
