I think guys buy cars for their own gratification and the fun they can have with them but if female attention comes as an added benefit there's no complaints there. I've been flashed by a group of drunk women (bachelorette party) who were in a limo while I had the top off in the Vette. Definitely enjoyed that one. ha ha

women are attracted to security. In todays society money is what gives us financial security , therefore the car will attract women. Its not the power and speed as much as the price I would think.
If you think of it from a animal behavior perspective its pretty clear. The same applies to your home. Also a good job ( Dr, lawyer, business, etc)

they're cheaper than new civics
all these kids who are getting are throwing all kinds of cheap crap mods on them.
Plus, you can't tell if these things have over 100k miles anyways.
I was totally going to start a thread similar to this in the club house forum! Being a woman I can tell you first hand that having a nice car is definitely attractive. Even more so for a car enthusiast like myself! One of the things that really bothers me is when a guy doesnt take care of his car. It doesnt have to be a flashy sports car or something expensive, at least take care of it and keep it clean! I had an ex that had a very expensive car and it was just trashed. It had junk mail, food wrappers and empty bottles (water and soda not alcohol lol) and dirt all over the carpets etc. It was a total turn off! I think it is a major reflection on someones overall cleanliness and lifestyle...
thats my 2 cents :-)

Somehow, I see it worst when the females driving beaters and trashing it
regarding to this topic though, very interesting. i do think women in general are attracted to nice cars. i mean, come on, i don't care if it's men or women, i rather get in a nice new clean car, rather than a old, rough running, rusted car with stained seats. it's just nature for everyone.
yeah, that old rusted beat up cars does simply generally say you're an unambitious slob. If anyone can find that attractive, then your standard is waaaaaay too low

you haven't seen the price of these luxobarge plummet?

I guess I still have my manhood. I have a minivan (a sporty one I should add) and a sports car
That's so true. To me, they way you keep/ maintain your car is a reflection of your habit/cleaniliness.

That's good that you kept a sports car and got a minivan
. You get the best of both worlds.The way you maintain a car is pretty important. I see a lot of people with nice cars, but they don't take care of it. It's even worse with girls because everyone I meet doesn't take care of their car no matter how nice it is. It's a shame because they expect guys to have nice cars, yet they drive beat up pieces of junk

If guys buy nice cars to attract women, it's all the fault of women anyway.
See, e.g., "The Science of Sex Appeal" generally, but also specifically:

A nice car is always a plus, and a rotting old econobox is usually a minus.
But any decent car that is clean and well cared for is a sign of a responsible person. That kind of person would generally find reasonable attraction from the opposite sex. It isn't just women being attracted to men; if I met a young female to find her late-model Lexus looking like an unsupervised 5-year-old's bedroom, it would be a major turn-off.
