    I'd actually love to drive these cars myself. I'm partial to the Lotus Elise, Aston DB9 and Jag xk8. But having said I like a guy to be able to drive and if he's driving a nice car, even better. I actually find it a total turn-off if a guy can't drive well. :o I don't know why!

    I love classic cars, but generally not the men driving them (because they're way too old for me!). Newer cars don't do much for me, even the nice ones. Although, when I was in kindergarten, our teacher asked us to name our favorite mode of transportation. Everyone gave the staple answers - truck, car, aeroplane. Then she got to me and I answered Lamborghini. My parents got a call for that one. So much for good taste.
    So for me, the classic car would be the turn on, and then if you removed the old guy driving it, even better.

    I find men who drive polos (the new model and preferably black) really hot.

    I really dont know why. I dont even like polos. I'd never buy one myself. I'm completely flummoxed by this strange attraction.

    I think I'd find one of those big fancy cars a turn off, if anything. But I wouldnt mind driving one myself. Some classic cars like the old jags are gorgeous though. I like classic vw campers too.

    Kudos. A+ right there.:D

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    la-car-concours-1971-lamborghini-miura-sv-img_35.jpg

    god if I win the euro millions I'l have a garage that would make Jk from Jamiroquai dribble.....

    The miura is not only iconic as far as sport cars go but innovative, beautfull timeless and just sheer raw car porn....:D

    boring and unsexy Pontiac GTO body.

    Wait wait wait - If a pontiac GTO is what google tells me it is, how the hell is that not sexy?! I'd take a sleek and stylish muscle car over your fancy schmancy sports cars any day!

    its got the areo dynamics of a breeze block the handling of a merc a class on ice..heavy... its not sleek its certainly not stylish and over all your are wrong mussels cars and sport cars are different...

    the only way your getting one of those to look all of the above is a dude called chip foose :) and a lot of money :)

    but i can apricate the attraction to one Ive all ways had a soft spot for a hemi cuda :cool:

    +1000 and as GirlInterrupted said the Italians seem to get that more than most when it comes to mechanics(and other stuff in fairness to the buggers).

    there is one car that booth sounds as sexy as a merlin and even better then a Italian car but we all forgot about it :(

    The kind of car a guy drove would have no effect on me. However if he had a motorbike, well that's a different story entirely. Bikes are sexy and exhilarating and FUN!!!! :D

    This is the most recent version of the Goat. It's basically a Holden Monaro rebadged as a Pontiac. Nothing wrong with that per se, the thing goes like stink thanks to the 6.2l V8, but you have to admit, it does look a little unpreposessing.

    ...and deadly. It suffered a slight flaw that, given it was shaped vaguely like an aeroplane's wing, it tended to take off at higher speeds. Steering became more an issue of prayer than of turning the wheel.

    Apologies for the delay in this one, I'm only just back home on leave, but I thought I'd try an experiment. I happen to have two cars in the driveway, one a little more interesting than the other, so I revved them up a bit.

    (May take Youtube an hour or two to catch up)

    I'm not going to tell you what they are, but one of them is not a VW Polo.* Have a listen, and give your opinion on if you think you might like the car associated with the noise. If people guess them, great, if not, I'll tell you in a few days. We'll see what the correlation, if any, is to the OP's experiment. Of course, you could just conclude I have lousy taste in cars...

    *Neither's the other.

    Red's a

    Knowing this, does it change your opinion?

    Why do some women like lads that drive sexy looking cars? OK, some will say the answer is obvious, while others will proclaim that the lad's personality, integrity, humour, thoughtfulness, and physical fitness are more important than material things?

    A lot of women seem to have a moral problem between what they think they should like and what they actually do like in men.

    Maybe it's just my speakers but
    the V8 sounded like a V6, and the V10 sounded somewhere between a V8 and V10, couldn't call it.
