- OK so there are women out their who are influenced purely by the size and
- polish of your car. I doubt if those women care what type of gearbox it has
- as long as it cost big dollars. The problem with having a sports car is that
- you may actually attract this type of woman. Now what happens.

- Personally i'd rather find a girl with a mind who knows how to double
- de-clutch, appreciates fine machinery, enjoys the wind in her hair, laughs
- at my jokes and won't leave me for someone with a shinier car. If she can
- sing and play a musical instrument all the better.

- She probably thinks he's cute, loves him dearly and wouldn't leave him
- just for someone elses car.

- In my experience the intelligent women who like excitement and enjoy sports
- cars buy their own and don't need to hook up with guys in chest wigs and
- medallians to get their enjoyment.
