    TBH, I could less, especially since most of the girls I know in real life don't have a car anyways.
    Although if they can afford a Lambo, then so much the better.

    It's not so much what she drives, it's how she drives it. Anything driven hard is driven honorably. And I've discovered, after falling mildly in love with a girl making time in her Protege, that lane discipline is probably more important to me than religion or politics.

    @skitter:
    Lane discipline is both a religion and a political view. It represents faith in a system of being fair to your fellow man (or woman).

    @VeeArrrSix: Certainly I've found (in Australia anyway) the hottest women exist in your local area and not in a magazine or in the movies. If Australia's Next Top Model was actually about girls that look hot and not finding the next coathanger for some mummified designer or clutch purse San Francisco I would actually watch it.
    Hot (but crazy) girls drive Mitsubishi Lancer's. Hot girls drive Ford hatchback's (festiva, laser, focus, fiesta) with a manual.

    Let's face it, as many have said guys don't care what kind of car girls drive. For the most part if you are reasonably attractive and are willing to give guys attention, we're happy, anything else is just a bonus. With that said keep this in mind. If you guys are looking at marriage you will eventually have to get rid of whatever your wife is driving, wither you sell it outright or trade it off to a dealer. This is where that Honda Civic or Toyota Corrola or Camry can be a good thing. They sell quick and have high trade in values. And make no mistake YOU will be the one selling it or doing the deal at the trade-in time. YOU are the car expert (at least if you are reading this website you should be). Then you can guide the replacement vehicle to a more Jalop friendly purchase, sure you might be going from a car with a Jalop score of negative up to only a zero or less than 20pts, but at least it is some improvement.

    I had a girlfriend once who decided she wanted to learn how to repair cars, and meet boys (before we met, asshole). So she got an Austin Marina. Mission accomplished.
    When I met her, she was diving a 4WD AMC Eagle sedan. She was a real help when I needed to replace the short block in my van.
    My current SO, she can weld.
    You know what's not impressive? an old, gray Pontiac Sunfire.

    So long as she has her own vehicle with which she can drive herself home, I could care less what a woman drives. So long as she keeps serving up blumpkins, Cindy Kim can drive whatever she wants.

    Its easy to judge a chick by her car. My roomate's girlfriend drives a beige Hyundai Santa Fe and completely lacks any sort of personality other than a desire to one day equal her peers. My girlfriend drives a Se7en and is completely perfect except for her lack of existing.
    The only actualy deal-breakers here are the minivan and the Lexus, the rest certainly do suck and I'd rather not hang around em, but there is still some piece of bodywork I'd throw the owner against.
    Everyone needs to take a look at the articel referenced in this post. Hilarious. When was the last time you saw a chick driving a Gallardo or an Escalade and though, "Hey she must be single." Certainly you'd try to have a magical 10 minutes encounter in a gas station bathroom to help satisfy the needs her crayola packing guy fails too, but LTR, not in this lifetime.

    My only girlfriend hasn't had a car yet (but is looking to buy a used Kia Rio, despite my gentle suggestions that maybe she really wants a Protege, or an '85 XJ6). She also attracted me before either of us were old enough to drive.
    A friend of mine, however, dated a girl who drove a New Beetle Turbo. I don't recall her having a massive stuffed animal collection, although she had very Top 40 tastes. After they broke up, she decided she wanted to become a sex therapist and that I was probably interested in hearing about the random guys she picked up in bars. We stopped talking shortly thereafter.

    Maybe this isn't very Jalop of me, but I don't put much stock in the cars my ladyfriends drive. Every girl I've know didn't know or care anything about cars, and that's usually fine. Shoot, the last one drove an Escort station wagon and that didn't scare me off (although she eventually did).

    However, I draw the line at hybrids. Hybrid ownership isn't an automatic no-go, but it's a very good harbinger of things to come.

    Oh, and there's certainly bonus points involved if the girl actually does drive an cool car. I may not be very Jalop, but I'm certainly very shallow.

    Ummm, I'm happily married now, but I don't recall a girl's car EVER preventing me from taking an interest in her. HOWEVER, the car can often speak volumes about her personality and what you can expect.

    Last (awful) girlfriend before wife: '96 Cavalier convertible with personalized plate. Ugh.

    *to be fair, my wife had a '97 Camaro V6 when I met her.
    **I prefer women who know what they like, but don't generally care about cars at all.
