Could it be true?

IF I were a single guy NOT wanting a long term situation: I would see the study as a good thing

But I didn't buy it for getting a gal.....and if she didn't want me, who would care?

Like there is an ass for every seat, there is also one for every guy

That article is hilarious, sending the wrong signal... whatever, I drive what I want and like. I don't give 2 cents what a girl then thinks of that decision.

Some girl was asking me about my Ferrari while I was in the bar wearing shorts and Nike running shoes if I bought the car to get women. I told her if I wanted to pick up girls I would have bought a Lexus and much nicer clothes.

Not to repeat a theme but I've been saying the 348SS would be the perfect car for a Priest. It definitely attracts more 14 year old boys than girls of any age.

Well well, what do they say "timing is everything". Another chimp and I were out in the ferrari sunday night around 11pm, stopped at starbucks and voila, a smoking hot ukrainian blond female of about 19 no more than 21 yrs of age was wetting herself all over the red head. The other chimp has photos, I was in the twilight zone and pretty much the other head took over and thus, did not think of options until after it was over.

Moral of the story, the TR consistently attracts more girls than guys. Of course, I did not become an owner to attract girls, but I am not complaining!

That is going to be a pita to clean ...


...a couple of months ago I was at a Shell Station near Chelsea and as I was filling up paying no attention to anything much. I happened to see this blonde chicklet (around 32) with the shortest hotpants, the longest legs and the highest heels across the road, and she was just staring right at me (okay at the car) but it was easy to look back and just smile. Her BF? was not too impressed as he climbed into the passenger seat of the Merc cabrio she was loading. Then a similar thing happened a few weeks ago when I pulled into another gas station (Esso this time). I happened to pull up behind a BMW cabrio (E36 - I notice these things ), just as the occupants came out of the shop and were walking towards the car. The driver a slim, toned, very pretty brunette stood outside as her girlfriend got in the back and was just mesmerised. The BF looked unhappy and got into the front passenger seat .

Women here make a huge effort to not even look at you let alone the car.

But it seems to attrack rednecks like crazy, every morron on the planet seems to be attracted to aluminum, must have something to do with fishing lures and beer cans.

I live in Gatineau, 5 mins from Ottawa, Basically I'm right on the border of Quebec and Ontario

Montreal and Quebec city are very different, women love cars and men, but here....I'm not sure, must be the river water that seperates both provinces that creates weirdness in women....LOL
