    I don't think a woman has ever taken a 2nd look at my car!

    The kids, high school boys and the husbands in the neighborhood are excited about it though

    I hope, for your sake and for the sake of your friend, that this is a joke....otherwise you (and your friend) have more serious issues than not being able to get a girlfriend.

    Nothing would surprise me....afterall, someone who has the brains to acquire a 488 is actually posting nonsense about being surprised it isn't a chick magnet? Something doesn't add up.

    Hey, my 612 is a chick magnet. When I bought it in 2013, my wife of 38 years at the time renewed her vows! :D

    FWIW, my wife told me if I bought another car she'll file for a divorce. So far the Ferrari seems like it's working in the opposite direction....

    I think this poster should buy a Lamborghini- I think the lifestyle would really meet his goals.

    You mean a Buick (or whoever makes the K-car) - because with his line of thinking, he has no business in Ferrari ownership....it's actually a disgrace to be quite frank.

    Could be wrong but this is the exact impression many of us would hate to be associated with as Ferrari owners...

    Yes - at least personally. but if you are around Ferrari long enough - you see it all. Its my experience here in Atlanta - Lamborghini is much more in line with his comments.

    Only a fool wants to Attract women, i am married 23 years. Buying a Ferrari is great thing your friends get jealous and your wife gets car sick. And finally your left alone to drive, wander, and enjoy life.

    These cars, in my experience, attract 17 yr old boys — “cool car dude. Rev it. What do you do for a living”—- not, chics … they just walk away unless they know you and your character already…. Well, at least not the kind of chics you want to attract. Buy Ferraris/exotics for yourself, for the passion, for the feeling…. Not for others

    In my newly single lifestyle (first time ever since I was 18)— if I go on a first date, I bring the Audi E-tron daily driver… with no mention of other cars… if we like each other and I’m picking her up and going somewhere nice for a second date, I might bring the AMG GTc…. And then after a few dates where it looks promising based on character, personality and attraction, then I might show up in the Ferrari….

    I have heard the best way to attract women is to show up at the park with a puppy.

    This dude who works at the liquor store by my house commented about my Q50, he said, " ill bet all the girls want to get a ride in that car " I just kind of smiled, and thought to myself, " really ? " So far, my Q 50 is NOT A chick magnet, nor a magnet to anyone else...

    A friend of mine who has a science background tested out a variety of different singles profile images and text to see which got the best response. His final version that was getting tons of hits:
    • Brief, light-hearted description/bio
    • Photos of:
    • him with puppies (he didn't have a dog, he went to the pet store and cuddled puppies in the play box thing)
    • hiking on a mountain
    • scuba diving on a reef
    • driving a Jeep
