I'm sure some female commentors are griping about this article being sexist, but I'm a woman and I thought it was hilarious! What kind of women does a guy who doesn't have a car attract?

Where can I find more pictures of that bad-ass looking "old school hot rod"? Or possibly who built it.

It's hard to say who is sadder,a guy that needs a certain car to attract a woman or a woman that is dumb enough to be interested in a guy just because of his car. They probably deserve each other,i just hope they don't breed.

With ya on that one Dearth, I had to give a LONG look at a pretty gal in a 1970 Nova (kinda like the 'Death-Proof' Nova) with slapper bars and and agressive rear ride height.

She was going a good rate over the limit, not really enough to stick out, but not hanging about. And it was a 4 speed. Phew. Pretty hot.

As a woman, I can attest that this works both ways. A women in a hot car attracts certain types of men too. I drove a Corvair for a while, and was getting a swelled head over all the guys checking me out, until I realized it was the car and not me.

@Curves: Actually that's completely true. I might give a pretty girl a second glance while I'm out and about, but I'd almost cause an accident for a second, third, and forty-fifth glance at a pretty girl in a hot car.

In my case, especially an old hot car.

@FuzzyPlushroom: It was 64 Spyder that my sister bought from her high school teacher and I drove it when she was living overseas. I always made sure to keep an extra belt for it because they were always breaking. Burgundy Coupe.
That car looked good on me.

Where would a tastefully modded Subaru Impreza WRX be in there? No wing, light tint, no chrome, STi wheels, a chip and an exhaust? Please tell me it doesn't fall into the Clapped-Out Rice Rocket or the Sensible Japanese Import. I was sure I'd be avoiding those areas with this thing...

@TheBrudwich: I don't know whether to be angry at your trollish insinuations about my gender and sexuality (unfounded, BTW, as I'm as straight and male as they get), amused by your third grade attempts at clever misspelling (as if misspelling the bad words makes it like you never used them), or sad that you have revealed the level of your maturity here in such an embarrassing manner. I'll go with a mixture of sad amusement, as responding in kind to your trolling wouldn't be constructive.

And I'm guilty. One of my cars is a Camry and I am currently repainting the inside of my house "neutral" to sell it. Hell yes on the back rub and also the warm milk, as long as there's a shot of chocolate or brandy in it.

Okay, so what can you catch with an El Camino?

Oh, herpes, okay.

How about a hearse?

I don't want to know? Shit. I was hoping for some cute goth chicks or something.

Uhh... a brick-shaped Volvo?

Nothing?

@something_unique_and_descripti...:I know two people under 30 who drive one - one, I believe, had the car bought for her by her parents (granted, she was kinda cute) and the other's a good friend of mine. Well, he doesn't count, as he's male. And he rolled it over last week in an unfortunate ice-related accident. And walked away, of course, but that's not the point.

I guess I need to move to Ithaca or somewhere. That's more what you're thinking of, I believe.

@Deartháir and his eight little drained beers: Would it hurt your head even more if I told you that:

- I have a respectably-sized beard

- I don't own a cell phone, and my mp3 player has neither video-playing capabilities nor a stencil of a partially-consumed fruit on its casing (and that casing is plastic)

- My car doesn't have a spoiler, alloy wheels, or a thumpin' subwoofer

- I'm currently listening to Eric Clapton?

Hey, Kenny Rogers! Actually, scratch that last one.

@FuzzyPlushroom: Fuck. By that measure, I'm more of a teenager than you are. Okay, my iPod broke two years ago and never got replaced (who knew you couldn't back over it with your car and have it continue working?) but I do have a spoiler (although functional, and powered, extends out of the body at 70 km/h), alloy wheels, and a 15" sub and 10-speaker stereo with integrated in-dash DVD/Sirius/Nav. And I'm on my 34th cellphone. I do, however, sport a Riker beard, and can play Clapton on the guitar, so I do have adult aspects to me.
