Because it usually says a lot about the man and his status in society. It proves that he has financial stability which is a major plus when seeking a potential mate.
Man. My 10 year old Explorer musta been a chick repellent...and me, a dirty 1%er.
This is the Automotive forum. The question from the Op in this forum needs to apply to 4 wheeled, self propelled, transportation devices. All other comments will be deleted. Personal attacks will be deleted. If you want to talk dating, we have a forum for that. If you want to talk finances, we have a forum for that. Here in this forum we talk cars, we talk trucks, we will allow talking about how those devices make or break our dating life, as seems to be the intent of this thread. If you want your comments to stick, make sure that they relate to owning, driving, financing, purchasing, maintaining, or liking cars and trucks.
This thread actually started off in the Relationships forum and that is probably the most appropriate forum in which to discuss the OP's original question since the question involves not just opinions of cars.
(permanently exits thread)
ETA: OP quoted for confirmation of my opinion....

I also keep the interior vacuumed and have "vent sticks" air fresheners in the "Black Ice" scent. Its got a few dents and scratches but it runs beautifully, is good on gas, and I've never had anything major go wrong with it yet, other then blowing a few speakers (Thanks LMFAO)
The other day after work, a very good looking girl had wanted to apprach me but then stopped before she could even initiate any conversation and said "Oh my God, you drive THAT?" as if it were the most repulsing thing she had seen in her life.
Considering I spend so much time and money on the upkeep of my car, I was a bit insulted and replied with "Yeah, do you have a problem with my car?" and she said "Yeah, I thought you were really cute and I wanted to talk to you, but I'm sorry I can't be seen with a guy in a car like yours, don't your parents own a BMW or Mercedes you can borrow?" I told her no and that my family wasn't rich like hers (I work in a grocery store in a VERY wealthy area) and I got into my car and drove home for the day
Now ladies, does it matter to you, even just a little what kind of car your man drives? If not, does it matter how clean its kept, running right, reliable?
We were married for about five years when my wife asked me what kind of a car she has.
I said, "It's a Honda, my dear."
"I know that, but it's a Civic or an Accord?"
"Why do you need to know?"
"Someone at work asked me today," she said. "So, what is it?"
"It's a Civic," I told her. "You can look at the trunk emblem right next to the Honda emblem, if you don't believe me."
"Oh," she said, "it's not a big deal."
As you can tell, she is really into cars.
One year just before Christmas I told her that one of her presents would be a set of tires for her car.
She looked at me kindly and said: "I thought the car already had tires when we bought it 3 years ago."
