If your talking about girls who you want to meet your parents, then probally not.

If you just want to have some fun (double wrap it), then a modded car might do the trick. To seal the deal, be sure to install a bumpin stereo so you can cruise the block shaking windows and setting car alarms off.

Really depends on what you want to use the car for...

For the average woman not into cars herself (I'm taking 22 - 35, no teens here), I always notice the following:

- They really love riding in the Cayenne S or my old Range Rover
- They don't care much about the Gallardo
- They don't care about mods or wheels
- They do like a decent sound system so music sounds good (not overboard bass-mobile)
- They like a BMW just because it has a BMW badge on it (and if it's a newer model)
- They like convertibles
- They would like to drive a BMW, Audi, or VW themselves because they look 'cute' or 'pretty'

totally agree with this
I had this one chick go so berserk with insecurity over my car that she canceled our date...
I went to pick her up for our date in my 03 530 (in 04) and she was all like "u drive a BMW? ur only 19... forget it"
and she went on a tantrum...

most girls dont know 1 damn thing about cars. I took a date to the auto show in Manhattan. I was getting all excited over the cars, and she didnt even know what she was looking at. AS far as mods, most cant tell the difference between a stock car, and one thats modded. I also noticed that most girls dont care about cars. Having a nice car usually wont help get you laid

My girlfriend thinks my car is "nice" but nothing special.

She thinks the mini cooper is "cuter"...

But the again, she started dating me back in days where she helped pay for outings and not to mentioin a car that knocked, and rattled with crazy amounts of oil leaks / burning.

good times...

my girlfriend likes cars, although she probably wishes i bought her more things instead of mods. for the car. Her first car was a 1987 325ix, dad has a 1976 2002, and 1998 328i. Don't think most girls care about modding though.

Honestly, I think the women that mod their cars are beastly in general. Except the women on the forum anyway.

I have been driving in my boyfriend's e90 for almost 2 months now and i must admit that i really don't care about how fast it is . i like cruising , not speeding .
my friends like to be picked up by me to go out . not because it's a quite fast car , but because it looks very nice !
Jongie promised me if i haven't made any damages , i could keep it next year !
so what i wanted to say is that i don't care about how powerful the car is :-)

I agree with you on this.
Most of the times when a girl sees a flashy car, I hear:
Girl: "Oohh what kind of a car is THAT?"
Friend: "That's a BMW 335i"
Girl: "I want that!"

You don't even need to go that far. It's usually more like this with some of the girls I've met....

I would say, they don't necessary "like" or "dislike" cause the car is modded.
All they know is that its either "pretty" or "ugly". Since girls are not really into cars, its natural, and I find it quite... cute.
Like how guys don't know jack about make-ups. Its amazing when girls look at each other and say "you used different foundation today huh?"..

My girlfriend having a boyfriend who is obessed with cars, she began noticing the difference between "same brand" cars.
Like the difference between 5 series and 3 series. Its no longer an "another bmw!", but "oh thats a 5 series!".

Now, she learned how to notice a difference between modded vs stock.
"Oh, that 3 series doesn't look like the other 3 series." or "Wow, looks a lot better with those wheels(or bodykit)."


HUGE improvement. Im proud of it. My girl is so damn cute.

I used to know nothing about cars...just liked the expensive ones that looked "pretty"... (I was sure that the pinnacle of car ownership would be having a mercedes benz vert)

but then i met this guy and I was really into him and one day he said that he could name every car on the road as he saw it drive by (not that great of a feat but it seemed like it for me at the time). After that I wanted to be able to do the same to try to impress him i guess...

Never dated that guy but now that skill (and other stuff that ihave picked up a/b cars) is a plus b/c my current bf is really into cars and we can talk about it together and go to car shows So i guess i am part of that 1.23434543542362 percent lol Some mods I like, some i dont. Exterior mods have to stay true to the design of the car and not be flashy. Performance/engine mods are almost always impressive. but i dont know much about what can actually be done...

My girlfriend actually told me she hated my car because it gets more attention from me than she does.. Because I'd rather buy a new set of wheels than a puppy for her. Big deal. I talk about modding and show her so many pictures from the forum that she actually learned something about it.. But shes the jealous type :P

As far as other girls.... The majority could care less about mods as long as the car looks good/expensive that is all they need to know
