Default bought your car to attract girls?

I sure hope it was a Prius!

Fuel- efficient -- The new chick magnet? Close to nine in 10 women (88 percent) say they’d rather chat up someone with the latest fuel-efficient car versus the latest sports car.

That's a gauranteed chick magnet!

And to answer the original question, no, I didn't buy my car to attact girls. I bought it because it was the best choice of all the cars I was looking to buy, in the price range that I wanted to pay!

it all really depends on the sampling of women.


and i'm definitely sticking to them Ferraris.



my car buying decision didn't really have anything to do with it's ability to attract women--if it holds such abilities at all...


but it does comfort me in saying that a friend of mine (a girl) does believe that the 2GS might be Lexus' best effort yet.

The next question in the survey should be:

Do you consider the Prius to be "cute"?

They will chat with the guy in the hybrid, then go home with the guy in the Ferrari, then eventually settle for the guy with the Camry.

oh man. well said. although in this forum

"settle with the guy with the Lexus" might have been more appropriate?
