I wonder what the evolutionary reason is behind that.

Ladies don't typically care about a car's performance. At all. Keeping a car clean and avoiding Fast and Furious style modifications will be plenty attractive to females. It's kind of like a suit. You want to wear the suit instead of the suit wearing you. You want a car that accentuates who you are but doesn't overshadow your identity. I personally drive a Jetta. It's red with a beige interior and it has a turbo engine. It's no speed demon but I keep it really clean and to most ladies who have ridden in it it's a fun car that fits my personality. Before that I had a Jeep Wrangler. It had a similar feel in that it accentuated who I am without defining who I am. If you're concerned about your image as it relates to your car, then treat it like any other fashion accessory.

In years past I found cars that have expensive, unique and fashionable looks attracted far more female attention than genuine performance or utilitarian equipment.

Face it, women have an eye for fashion. Of course how you present yourself face to face will support or negate any impression made with the auto.

Honestly, it's an old Ford truck with a bench seat where she can sit right next to you, and on long drives she lays down with her head on your lap.

A limousine? Really, if a woman didn't like me becasue of my mini-van then I owe the van a lot of gratitude for culling out someone with values that don't mesh with mine!

Normally we'd have to suspend your man-card for doing this but I suspect you've been operating without one for quite some time.
Ah. You must have a Corvette too. Explains a lot.

All I need is my bus pass to pick up the bi*ches. A car is optional.

I picked up more chicks in my '93 Eagle Vision than any other car except maybe my beat up, rusty 1978, 1 ton dodge pickup...

I don't think the car matters!
