Are men more attractive because they have a high performance or expensive car?

Does anyone really think that because a man is driving a sporty or expensive car that he is more attractive? It is always used in advertising as a way of selling cars, but it actually has the opposite effect on me. If I see someone with a car like that, I think 'oh dear, there goes another fool trying to make up for an inadequacy', the more sporty the car, the more I think that they've got a big problem! Am I the only woman who thinks like this?

I haven't seen many adverts for high performance cars with women drivers.

You do have a point.But then you see most models are also women.Why so,are they more good-looking than guys?You see,this is just some kind of convention that people like to follow.But then, conventions can always be broken.

I think I will look when I see a man that is driving an expensive fancy car on the street but I won'tthink they are particularly attractive; they could be making lots of money or just being rich but when it comes to a man is attractive, it's not about what fancy car or how handsome he looks like. It is for me.

there was a British motoring journalist who once described a car as being able to "snap knicker elastic at 50 paces". Strangely enough i did once sleep with a guy who had the car in question (a ford probe) though that wasn't why it happened! Do i find a guy more attractive if he is driving an expensive car? no but if i liked a guys car then i probably would be more likely to sleep with him, especially if it was in said car. HOWEVER what cars i like is not really to do with how expensive it is. People driving really garish and OTT cars like Ferraris and hummers would put me off though and i do have a tendency to mark them down as possible t**ts.
