I bought a fancy car (for me, I don't really care about what others think of my car) and I actually have had a bunch of women get all excited about it. One was at a fast food drive-thru and she practically was climbing through her window to look at it lol
That was not my intention but I did think it was funny. I have definitely have had men fawn over it too.
I'm not talking like DOZENS of people or anything but like 4 women, 6 men...
It's an Ioniq 6, didn't think it would draw that much attention lol
You had me imagining you in a Pagani until the end lmao. I had something adjacent happen with my FJ, as I work in a lot of ecological and conservation circles and would have expected to get a whole gas mileage rant every time I pulled up (which is valid, but I actually use my car for things that a Prius couldn't do) but all my colleagues love it!
Well, I think there is also a stereotype of women liking men with money, and a fancy car is a marker for money. A puppy will get you more looks from women than a Miata, although Miatas are cute.
Woman here with nice cars. Ironically my husband has the convertible, I'm not a fan at all. I have a car without a roof, but it's not a convertible.
Most MX5s I see are driven by old guys, it's weird!
Old guys or young dudes.
With a spattering of driving enthusiasts of all ages.
The mint ones are 99% old men though. I'll give ya that. Lolz
Are you saying old people can't be hot women? Have you seen the bow flex commercial with the grandma?
Yup, every Thursday afternoon it's ladies' afternoon doubles at my tennis club and the parking lot is filled with Boxsters, SLKs and 4series
Young women usually don't have the money for those cars, 30s and 40s women usually have children. It's the 50s women who buy them
And nude beaches sound great until you find out it's all a bunch of gravity stricken elderly folks that actually go al fresco.
Yes. That's why I don't go to swingers parties because everyone looks like me. :)
Those are not old people. Those are hot women with too much sun exposure.
It takes time to be able to build up the wealth needed to have an extra car just for fun on nice days.
"Youth is wasted on the young and sports cars are wasted on the old."
It's because old people have the money to afford a convertible so they'll pay to pretend that they're young again.
Media tells guys that if they buy a fancy car, hot girls will be all over them. In reality, buy a fancy car and other guys will be all over you.

I call my sports car "The Dude Magnet".
I've heard motorcycles are expected to be chick magnets, but end up as dick magnets
Who says that's not what I wanted?
Will they be the right guys?
Fancy cars are too expensive for my tastes, any more frugal ways to get other guys all over me?
Do more squats to give yourself a nicer butt
Milkshakes.
This only works if you have a yard.
If you don't have a yard you are limited to those little cups of ice cream with the wooden stick.
Hey, don't knock those. I once got a bulk pack of like, 120 of the little cups of ice cream. That was a good 3 months
Women aren't interested in fancy cars, they like cute cars. Unironically the car that will get you the most attention from women is a first gen Miata
Fingers crossed that my Eclipse Spyder does the same.
Probably not, but fingers crossed.

That's because it hasn't been a common trope since old people were young enough to be influenced by tropes.
Hot women are portrayed as doing everything in media. That's what media does
Because that media is advertising to old men to get them to buy the cars.
They're not advertising the product, they're advertising a life that involves the product
They're advertising the lifestyle so people buy the car in the hopes of getting that lifestyle.
The hot woman is also part of the product.
