Chick/Guy Magnates

What non-exotic cars would get you a date?.....what catches someones eye? Do men think what they drive makes a difference or do potential dates care generally? What if you came to the door on mass transit?....would he/she care?

Well, it is a well known fact BMW drivers get laid on average more than any other driver of any other automobile... :D

here's a good article...

BMW Drivers Get Most Sex
» From the Miscellaneous Department

“BMW drivers have more sex than owners of any other cars and are much more active than Porsche drivers… The German magazine Men’s Car found in a survey of 2,253 motorists aged 20 to 50 published in its inaugural May issue that male BMW drivers say they have sex on average 2.2 times each week while Porsche drivers have sex 1.4 times per week. Following BMW drivers were Audi (2.1), Volkswagen (1.9), Ford (1.7) and Mercedes (1.6). Drivers of foreign car makes were also behind BMW with Italian cars (2.0), French (1.9), Japanese (1.8), Swedish (1.6) and Korean cars (1.5) trailing after. Among women, French car drivers were top with 2.1 times per week followed by Audi (2.0), Italian (2.0), and BMW (1.9) with Porsche again at the bottom of the scale at 1.2 times per week.” — Reuters (UK)

At first sight, this story makes you want to rush out and buy a BMW. “Get me some of that action!” You imagine that every time you stop at a red light, a supermodel tries to carjack you and hump your brains out.

But on reflection, you realize there are a few different ways to interpret the data. The story doesn’t say that BMW owners attract more lovers. Rather, it says they have more sex — and this could be for any variety of reasons. Maybe BMWs just happen to appeal to a demographic that is more sexually active. Maybe they have big back seats that can accomodate a roadside quickie.

The surprise here is that Porsche drivers have less sex. You would think the Porsche would be a pretty sexy car — a magnet for the type of babes who are impressed by wheels. But then maybe that’s a myth and the only people who buy Porsches are the guys who really do believe it will help to get them laid — which would mean that Porsche owners have less sex for the simple reason that, with or without their cars, they are simply unappetizing to the opposite sex.

P.S. Residents of cities such as New York might find the whole correlation of sex and cars irrelevant. More germane to New Yorkers would be to find out what form of mass transit is the sexiest. Do people who ride the F train have sex more than people who ride the Q? Do straphangers get more action on MetroNorth or the LIRR? And what about city buses? It’s hard to put your finger on it exactly, but it would be easy to imagine that riders of the bus have the least sex of any commuter in town.

I AM GETTING A BMW....BYE BYE GM.

BMW drivers just have such low self-esteem that they have to go pick up hookers.

[Cory Wolfe]

I must tell you... A 1988 Pontiac Fiero GT is one. Sleek fastback body, mid-engine proportions, sporty stance, bold rear.... Ahh... Those exotic looks are intoxicating. :D

jeep girls are dirty and do it in the mudd....enough said (other than the fact that a girl into jeeps you know will be a lug head)

[Flybrian]

What that study doesn't tell you is that BMW drivers typically have the most sex...with themselves.

[HarleyEarl]

Now thats funny.

[ocnblu]

Yeah Nick, why'd you even have to go there?

[Guest Josh]

From when I drove the Solstice I can speak first hand. It is a chick magnet!

[Cremazie]

I just see any roadster at all being a chick magnet, I mean I love all roadsters..!

[Nick]

why do you guys gotta be hatin? :P

[HarleyEarl]

Yes, I think there is something about top down motoring (I mean the car's top!), that just does it on a date. Especially roadsters. Two seaters suggest it's just you and me babe, the air in our hair and sun on our faces. It's definitely a babe magnet. I vote for the Pontiac Solstice as being the current most effective babe date magnet.

What the BMW article doesn't mention is that BMW owners consider masturbation "hand sex"

...or taking matters into your own hands.
