    What kind of cars do the majority of women like? Any stories?
    I know most women aren't impressed by corvettes they seem to be a
    guy thing, and most don't seem to care about ferrari's except it does
    say money and some are gold diggers. Don't get me wrong im not saying
    all women who like expensive cars are gold diggers, Im just wondering
    what cars are most women impressed by. It sure isn't my suburban
    I can tell you that :) but I am married and don't put out that vibe.
    This thread is for fun, so don't get upset.

    Mercedes, BMW, and SUVs(for the married 8+ years women).

    those are my observations at least. Women like the luxury and the put it in drive and go kind of cars.

    BMW X5's, Land Rover/Range Rover, Mercedes Benz M Class, Audi TT's, Mini's and Porsche's. From my experience those are what women like the most. I remember seeing a 360 with my sisters a few months back. I was so excited and they could have cared less. They obviously don't have a clue about cars but I was still suprised nonetheless.

    tfazio is right, I bought my MINI S bc it handles well, but women go nuts over it...I guess cuz its "cute". Sadly, that takes some of its "hard guy" credibility away, but oh well...

    It depends from taste to taste. From my experience, women like cabrio. If you realy want a cool car that will give you attention, take one of those top tuned, cool lookin with neon light etc.. But if u wish a standard car, go for BMW-cabrio models. NOT old, they are ugly.

    The whole Ferrari and women thing is a bit interesting... they like the guys driving them and ONLY the guys in Ferrari's, but they themselves would not drive one.

    My observations as well fall into what was stated above... "Its just sooo cute!" Explaining the Beetle, Cooper and anything 'Cabrio' explosion.

    College girls, post grads, strippers like the Eclipse Spyder, Mustang/Camaro, early 1990 BMW series.

    Real Estate woman prefer the Jag, Lexus, Mercedes cruise boats.

    Your agressive, self employed women like the Saab, BMW 3 and 5 series and an occasional C5 or ZO6.

    Cold, perfectionist, eccentric, power-driven women drive the latest Porsche 911. Rarely the turbo, always a Carrera.

    NEVER met a single girl, as in unmarried, that drove her own Ferrari.

    There was Nika, I think she's married now, then I remember a woman who bought herself a 288 GTO back when they were new.

    Paris Hilton has a Murcielago

    But yes, they are Very rare

    I had 1 woman state that my F40 costs $60,000

    Wish I knew where to get 1 for that before I bought mine LOL

    In general, what women really crave is attention. End of subject. Cars, money,the size of your wanger, none of this really matters. They want you to act as if they are the center of your universe. Put another way, what women want is love.

    Boy that about wraps it up. You have it figured out, So you think driving a Cabrio will get you more attention from women than driving a Ferrari?
    Sad but true I suppose.

    You guys wanna pick-up girls? Get youself an old Fiat 500, or an old Austin Mini. They can't resist them becuase they are cute. I had a yellow 99 Lambo VT Roadster in the shop and parked right beside it was a blue Fiat 500. Guess which one the girls went to..yup the Fiat..they did not even look twice at the Lambo or anyother exotic that was in the shop for that matter.

    I wish chicks knew the difference. They know purses, at least the ones I know and shoes. But can't tell the difference between a 360 or a toyota MR 2. AAAAAAAND if they did know what kind difference, My question are they GOLD DIGGERS, hahah

    If you're referring to the titanium Murci with Paris in it (there are 2 pics floating around the web) ... I don't think it was hers, it was only used for a music video. Now if she does actually own a Murci, she goes up in my book!!!

    What's worse? A woman saying your F40 is worth 60 grand or a guy saying an Enzo is worth 3 million?


    If someone has a clear and precise answer to "what do women like", I'd love to hear it because I don't have a clue!!!! LMAO!

    My mom and my sisters couldnt care two sh!ts if a Ferrari passed, whenever i want to drive by the dealership near my house they all get mad and are like "You've seen one, you have seen them all!" I remeber specifically a 355 was in front of me and i said "Mom pull up next to it, i wanna see if the guy will wave and maybe acclerate fast." she said "that small thing cant go very fast." No appreciation. None.

    Also, since we are kind of looking a new car im pointing out cars to my mom and i ask if she likes it, she could care less. One time i pointed out a Range Rover, and i was like what about that, she said quote " No, it doesnt look expensive enough." I almost slapped her. But i held back and calmly told her that it is a 70 grand SUV her response "O, well now i like it" I just dont get it.

    That is some remarkable restraint! Your mom clearly raised you right, she must be so proud.
