noticable might be the wrong word... Definately a good ride will make
you more appealing to a woman. I have found though, as I have gone
through all iterations of cars, from free jaloppy to pimped out rides,
that the car itself is only a part of it.

Like if you have trash and food and stuff on the seats and it smells
like cigarettes, garbage or farts, no woman is going to want to get in
your car or let alone get with you unless she is a pig herself.

So basically what I am saying is I keep my car super clean, even if I do
just drive a 95 Accord SIR. (It's baby blue though and women love it)

Lion, I love the big cars as well and I demand performance. I am
currently driving a 2001 Crown Vic. that was a county investigators car
with the police package. I also own a 78 T-bird that I hope to restore
some day. The boats just have a much better ride. One bad thing about
those old 2 door boats is now days you can not get the doors open with
the narrow parking spaces.

Clean is something that is hard to keep with 4 kids. I agree it is
better if you can keep it clean. But with 4 kids the back seat stays a
mess under and around the car seats. My older kids remove the car seats
weekly and clean the back seat. Smell is another turn off even to men.
My family car is cleaned regularly and has air freshener kept fresh.
Smoking is not allowed in the car unless the windows are down.

You know a clean house is also a good thing to have. But again with
kids it does not stay that way long. I got about 6 loads of laundry to
do in the morning as I did not do any today. I wash 2-4 loads a day. I
would love for someone with kids show me how to run a spotless house. It
is something this guy never learned.

I need to do some work on my Crown Vic.. I need to try and clean off
the glue spots from the decals even further as they are still showing
up. But I have to say it get 21 mpg around town and I have not went on a
trip since I owned it. So get yourself a newer boat you will save enough
gas to pay for it, LOL.

I don't think the car makes the man...but if he is riding a bike...look
out!! A man on a bike, now that is sweet! I myself, don't really do the
harley thing because it messes up the hair...but they do look mighty
fine on them :)
Always keep your cars clean...and with 4 kids, I am sure you do have
trouble keeping your car clean. I have 2 kids but my kids are older...so
I don't have any problems.

I never pay attention to flashy cars. I believe they are intended to
help the owner compensate for what they lack inside. My main
transportation is a black Explorer.

My second ride is an 1982 Harley Davidson FXR. That would be a 1340cc,
5-speed, 54" wheelbased, 800 lb. scarlet red SuperGlideII. Translation?
A cop bike without windshield, fairing or saddlebags. Just flat out
"shit and git". I bought "Scarlett" brand new. She is named
"Scarlett" because "she ain't no fucking wallflower"...and neither am I.

to me it doesn't matter what kind of a car a guy drives. I drive a 05
dodge neon. I like small cars.

it doesn't matter, if a guy has a nice car but is arrogant, or has a
piece of crap car and is fun to be around, then i'd rather be seen in a
crap car!!!!!

The ex got the 96 plymouth neon 2 door expresso. I have to say that it
has been a good car. When we was shopping for a car though all the
dealers kept telling us we wanted a 4 door because we had 2 kids at the
time. Well I am not that tall(5 8) and I could not get the seat back far
enough in the 4 doors. I do not mind small cars that I can get in and
out of but those are fewer and farther between now with my back injury.
But the sport and highline neons do perform. This car registered 120 and
I had it pegged out with plenty of pedal left on a late night trip to
florida.

I got slapped by the ex for staring at a nice 68 camaro. She thought I
was looking at the hot blonde driver which I had not noticed until she
brought it up.

No, it makes his car more noticeable (depending on what it is).
