Infiniti Q60 is the one you want. Sporty, reliable, sexy sleek looking go check them out. This is the two door upscale Infiniti not the Q70 mentioned above which is a 4 door sedan.

Nice car but I'd prefer a 4 door if at all possible. Thank you for your advice!

ETA...Unless its a complete abomination, I've never heard of a girl caring much about what we drive, beyond high school or at least college age.
I'm already on my second 4Runner. I'm not up for a third. I don't need a vehicle this size. I'm retired and want to downsize. I want something small, something sleek.

I'm not interested in what any woman thinks of my choice of car. I'm impressed by the good buying decisions many women make, and I want to be smart like a smart businesswoman would be in picking out my next ride.

I hope my eventual significant other doesn'd care what I drive.

I think a "Smart Chick" would most appreciate the car that makes the most financial sense for the man in questions situation.

I see a lot of Lexux IS250's being driven by classy looking women, but get the IS-350 which has a lot more power.
I have a 2006 and it's been very reliable. Before that I had a 1996 4Runner which never let me down (I still miss it).

That makes sense to me!

That's exactly what I wanted advice on, a smart decision, not a testosterone type decision.

Get yourself a volkswagon bug convertible.

Then get a custom paint job to make it look like a ladybug etc and also get some of the eyelashes you can put over the headlights.

Chevy Bolt. You have both. Estrogen and money wise.

My GF too warned me off the VWs.

I've decided 6 cylinder, and no hybrid. The 6 won't cost much more mpg unless I punch it, and I drive only 8,000 miles a year, don't commute, and don't see any advantage a hybrid could offer me.

However I'm kind of turned off by traditional American brands such as Chevy and Buick.
I know as I was turned off by the American branded cars, but GM has turned out some decent cars with the Malibu and Regal as well as the Impala and Lacrosse. It's similar to Hyundai, where the Genesis sedan was a game changer for me, once I had a couple of them as rentals. I would not rush out to buy any Hyundai, but the G80 is a good cruiser that does not attract attention as other luxury brands can tend to do.

People are not looking at you in anything but disdain. Sure you get a lot of looks but so do people that crap their pants in Walmart........
