A male United States age 30-35, *ustfriends writes:

alright its time that I get a new car or at least something fun to drive in the summer/weekends. I am looking at sports cars which isn't making my insurance company happy seeing as I am only 17. Well I have found two very different types. 87 Ford Mustang LX Notch or 93 Toyota Supra. both are in excellent shape and I have heard girls say that both look really nice.

Well I am getting the car more because I want it and not to impress girls but as always with a teenager that is a plus. I know that with a nice car people tend to look towards it and the attention is good because they notice the driver. In my case with my current car I have a very loud stereo system with a 15 inch subwoofer so a lot of people hear my car and look my direction.

The thing with both of these cars is that they are somewhat loud... the mustang being louder than the supra.

My question is do you think a fun car will help a little with the girlfriend aspect. Im not looking for someone who is just into me because of the car and with these two cars Im not expecting that (A Ferrari would be different lol) but do you think more people will turn and look and maybe talk to me about it?

I know at the beach seeing the lifted trucks and fast cars girls go crazy they yell at the boys driving and they get the hey sexy thing. So the added attention would be nice haha.

thanks for the help everyone

No offense but that's really silly to think a car is a way to meet girls. I know I could care less if a guy had a car or not. As cliqued as it sounds, if you want a girlfriend, just be yourself. Don't be afraid to put yourself out there. Girls love it when a guy is confident of himself. What is it exactly that makes it hard for you to get a girlfriend? Are you generally shy and quiet? Have you asked girls out before and got rejected? Also being an attention seeker isn't exactly a good thing. It's understood that many teens feel the need to be accepted and to fit in. If you're looking to seek attention, people may think you're arrogant and obnoxious. Besides the attention you'll receive from have a car won't be all it's cracked up to be because people will really only you with a car and not you as a person. Sure the "hey sexy thing" will be flattering, is that what you really want? Do you having a car, expensive or not, will really makE you appear cool? I can assure you it won't. If a person is described as cool, its because they have a great personality and are fun to be around. Hope this helps!

RedAthena agony auntIf you want a shallow gf who values you purely for image..then by all means, get the flashiest car you can find.

If you want a gf that admires you for YOU. Get what is most practical for your life.

Purchasing a car is an investment-chick magnet should not be part of the equation.
