Default What Women Think Of Your P-Car??

I know we all love our P-Cars because of the way they handle,
their heritage, their performance, their sexy looks, etc.

However, I am curious to hear the comments made by women
about your P-Cars...whether it be girlfriends, wives, other women (the best kind), etc.

i've had Porsches all my adult life and i have never met a girl who didn't like them.

Vette's? half think they're a substitute for ***** size. but strangely Vipers? chicks dig 'em.

go figure...

now, i'm sure you can find some babes with hair who don't like Porsches. but i've really never spent much time with them

I have always felt "Vettes are a little on the trashy side"--and the women
who like them "wear their clothes too tight and their hair is dyed."

My father has always told me there are girls you want to date, and there are girls you want to marry---and they are never the same woman.

Reminds me of when I got my first BMW - I called my insurance agent for rates and she said, "OMG who are you trying to impress"? I thought for a split second and said, "Me."

All my wife's friends have gushed over it - more than my wife has ;-), but she plays things close to the vest - she did have this dream that she took over my car, so I'll take that as she likes it.

My favorite comment from one of my wife's good friends: "Well that car is much more you than your other car was (550i)". Perfect.

"Why orange?"

Otherwise, I've had no complaints.

I met my wife 9 years ago in L.A. On our first date, she picked me up at my place. She pulled up in a 1999 996 Cab, 6 speed with the top down. I said WOW. She can drive a manual! She loved 911s (mainly for vanity. she drove a 993 before trading it in for the 996).

Fast forward a few years. After she got pregnant with our daughter 5 years ago, she traded in the 996 (then a 2002 Black Cab) for a Volvo SUV. She took a leave of absence from a successful law career and since then has retired at a ripe age of 34. Since then, got pregnant again and now have two children.

I purchased a 997.2 in May 09 when she was out of town with the kids. I expected her to be pleasantly surprised at the purchase. She couldn't care less. She drives it when she goes to the gym but no longer has the attraction to it as she did in the past. Now its more about practicality. She enjoyed the PCAR when she was single mainly for vanity. She is still vain as ever when it comes to physical appearance, but don't care much for the P-Car as she now have kids. Its easier to transport the kids in an SUV or a Sedan.

That is how the priorities have changed over the course of years as the estrogen level changed and new additions to family.

I didn't buy it to impress girls, but if I did I would be mighty disappointed because they seem to like the Miata much more than the Porsche.

Hmmm...never really noticed or asked for their opinions. Come to think of it, I'm not sure I even know what my wife thinks other than it's an expensive car.

Well if the girl is my wife she hates it. I tried to get rid of it about a year ago. When I explained the blood bath we would take she chilled. She excepts it now. My wife hated the fact it was hugely expensive, a Porsche and not to mention SY.
