See... You have to get into the mind of a straight man from the 1950s and ask yourself one of 2 questions: Is this a woman's thing? Or would I fuck this thing? Cars are considered "beautiful" and "sexy" and therefore fuckable by a man. I hope this has been a good lesson in outrageous sexism.

And yet 'ship' is masculine in French, despite even in genderless English being referred to by sailors throughout history as a 'she'

It is masculine because a ship is full of seamen.

Only the older models. The new ones have those big, sexy cow lips and are frankly out of my league.
