When my mind starts subconsciously associating the beauty of the car with the beauty of a fair maiden, it increases the likelihood of me, a heterosexual male, purchasing said car.
When someone says "Fairlady", I don't think of a Z. I think of a guy standing there holding his hand up with his pinky finger pointed out.
