Editor’s note and disclosure: I am receiving financial compensation for planning and implementing this event in partnership with Lexus at the 2016 New York Auto Show. The event is informational and serves to create a dialogue around common challenges women experience when car shopping. This partnership does not currently affect, and will not in the future affect, our editorial opinion and portrayal of Lexus and/or Toyota vehicles.
