Funny, but what people think of us...

My friend posted this picture on facebook and I found it pretty funny... and I concur that this is what most really think of people who own a 'fancy' car...
However, in reality, I don't think this is true at all... or I must be doing something wrong because I never picked up any girls because of the car that I am driving. Now that I drive a 911S (stepped up from C63), I don't see any girls throwing themselves in front of my Porsche

Too funny.. but sadly an accurate depiction of peoples perceptions.

I have always been extremely low key, other than what I drive due to my love of cars and engineering feats. Very few comments.

However, my wife gets a lot of attention and questions when she's flying about town in the 911. I wonder what a poster with a female owner would look like?

Porsche's are male magnets, I get a lot of dudes asking me questions about my car. Mercedes are chick magnets. When I drive top down, I get a lot of offers from girls asking to sit in the passenger seat. I rarely drive my cars in public places, only up in the mountains and to work.

haha! !
my experience says most people in general (m,f young and old)
will look at the porsches more than a bmw or a benz no matter what caliber they are
I am not sure what they are looking at though ( the speedy aspect, or the $$$, or the beauty of the porsche?)
one thing is for sure; this is not about the driver

Works for me. I have 3 Porsches, but only 1 girl. I think if I add girls to the picture, I would loose Porsches. I like my Porsches way too much to do that!

Mine has been the opposite. I have had a lot of nods or waves but guys but its the women that actually talk and ask questions. Go so far as to catch me at a stop light and roll down their windows to talk to me and ask questions. Never had that in my 997.....
