I'm trying to say that cars like lambo gallardo, ferrari f430 or new audi R8 V10 are those who attract much more than porsche's who are allways the same looking, exotic cars get women but great sport cars like porsche don't.

But i find that if u had a car that no one sees, then u get attention from women. I see tons of porsches. I have also seen out of shape guys with lambos get hot girls. Also you should get red or yellow to make it flashy as possible so people will know that you own an exotic. Women will know that you are different and higher status when they see everyone respecting you for having an exotic. if you have an aston martin, just tell them that it is the James Bond car Don’t take offense to this.

I am not much for imports(I live in upstate NY in the US), but if i was going to buy an import it would definately be a porsche, I have always like porsches and I happen to love the way the 911 looks. However I think that your flying under the radar theory might be right, it would be like if i had bought a mustang, because in my area they are basically a dime a dozen and everyone and their brother has one. In light of this, I opted to purchase a 1986 camaro, and let me tell you just the fact that there aren't many around is enough to draw attention from the ladies. I think your research would be better served if you tried a few different cars, like a Maseratti, maybe a Mercedes or high end BMW. I might just be a crazy yankee, but I would getting yourself a nice dose of good old fashioned American muscle. first off let me compliment you on your choice of cars.

Ferrari would look WAY MORE "nouveau riche". Actually, the "problem" might be that with a Porsche you fly under the radar in Switzerland (Pun not intended). Based on some non-scientific evidence, I bet that a Maseratti would work: luxury car, but very classy... Plus, might be cheap to get one these days with the number of young traders looking to trade their luxury car for food. nah…. Ferrari would look WAY MORE “nouveau riche”.

Maybe the swiss women ignore you because in switzerland a Porsche is too common :) To complete your study, you should try different cars, and the choices are straigthforward: Ferrari, Lamborghini...

At those times I wish I had a Porsche so that I could only fit my son in the car, but my wife prefers me to take all of them. @Sacha: I hate to say this, but my minivan doesn’t attract women, and it also doesn’t attract 8-year old boys, though I am often forced to load it up with my son’s 9-year old friends.

I'm Niklas Andersson, the Swedish Journalist, living in Spain. We met at "Open Source World Conference" in Malaga about a month ago. I've had the pleasure to run my BMW Z3 convertible for plenty of years on costa del sol. Now I'm about to sell it though as I dont dare to take it on yet another ride between Sweden and Spain just to pass the yearly revision (I've got swedish plates) One of my favourite hobbies where to take the car and a gorgeous girl to Ronda, a nice spectacular village about 40km north of Marbella, with Lenny Kravitz in the loud speakers and the sun in my face. "Ignoring you" is just part of the game, but I guess once you're "hooked" i.e married the car becomes a threat. My ex-wife loved my car til the day we married - then she wanted me to sell it :-) Congrats to a nice car, and to JBoss 5.0.0! Hi Sasha!

Now, given that the <a href="http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&saddr=Neuch%C3%A2tel,+Switzerland&daddr=athens,+greece&hl=en&geocode=&mra=ls&sll=47.364946,7.352214&sspn=0.00811,0.022745&ie=UTF8&t=h&z=5" rel="nofollow">distance between Neuchâtel and Athens</a> is 2'145km, I am not sure you want to "enjoy" the comfort of such a car on such a long distance. But you'll probably argue that you're wiling to give that much to for scientific research. Rich, Yes, not sure what it is, but it seems like my face refuses to get older. Who knows, maybe I'll look old overnight sometimes in 10 years (!) Dimitris,
