I once met a man who I found attractive and had a chance to talk to him quite a bit that evening along with a group of his friends. This guy was a bit metrosexual, maybe a little fem. He and his colleages were quite well off. At the end of the evening we walked into the parking lot. If I had to guess I'd have this guy in a bmw, mercedes, lexus or maybe a luxury SUV. Nope, he walked up to a screaming supercharged all American muscle car. I was soooooo turned on.

My husband definitely scored bonus points on our first date with his vehicle. I was expecting him to walk up to a Camry or something along those lines, but instead he opened the passenger door for me to get into a new 4-Runner (he had a remote ignition, so it was warm when I got into it. Plus hands free cell phone set up and that was 10+ years ago.)

While we were dating, he purchased a BMW as a 2nd vehicle. I ended up totaling my vehicle (not my fault) and I got the 4-Runner (by my choice.)

Yes, unless the reason she didn't have a license was because she was too young.

I pay more attention to whether or not a guy takes care of his car, whatever kind of car it is, because that can be an indicator of responsibility. I have an ex who never, ever changed the oil in his car. He never checked it either. Apparently it was easier for him to just run it into the ground and replace it. ughh.
On the other hand, my guy spends way too much of our money modifying his car (yeah, I'm a sucker for things like "but a new air intake would make it so much more efficient".) He even wanted to mod my daughter's pedal car. LOL

I wish you could explain to me exactly what goes on inside a woman's head when she gets "turned on" by a man who drives a particular vehicle, but I don't expect that sort of insight from anyone.

What type of car he drives is not so important to me. I just like a guy who can drive cause I don't like to.

I was already into the guy, this was just a nice surprise. I like American V-8 cars, grew up driving them, and people who can afford it tend to prefer euro cars or SUVs. It was attractive to me personally that he drove that as opposed to a status vehicle. I liked him anyway and this was something we had in common and it further indicated he wasn't about appearances and had a mind of his own. I guess I just thought it was cool and really unexpected. I hope that is insightful enough.
