Default 991 chick magnet or not?

Anyone see a sudden interest from women because of your Porsche? Any other cars draw interest that you own?

Yes - And it also causes thinning hair to regrow, potbellies to shrink and has even been known to cure bad breath. But with a name like Rocklegend you probably already knew that. Seriously?

Quite frankly, anyone (man or woman) who is "magnetized" to you based on your possessions, is a sad sorry soul.

The person who acquires these possessions for that purpose, is even more sad.

Once I found a note on my windshield (the 70 cuda) that read "Fast cars, fast men. Love, the girls in the library."

(I have no idea who they were).

Exciting stuff, huh??

I don't have a Porsche yet, but I do have an M3. I can tell you with 100% confidence that it does not matter to women. The interesting thing is that when it was new, I got a lot of attention from other guys (!). So basically, your car is a status symbol to other men, and women don't care.

Close, but no cigar. From an evolutionary standpoint, that is actually exactly what would make women care. Males are judged based on their status within their (male) peer group.

This is why high-school boys try to outdo each other with lots of stickers, wings, and other accoutrements such as stereos and rims. They aren't installing all that stuff to impress the girls -- they're using it to establish status among their peers, which in turn impresses the girls by signaling reproductive fitness.

I had a sudden interest from women before my porsche. Gold diggers do not know the difference between a 911 and an audi A4. You will however notice a sudden interest from other straight men like yourself.

Maybe this answers the question.

Parked at a pizza take-away and placed my order. Busy night so I had to wait. This is at a fairly busy shopping center so lots of people walk by.
To keep me busy I decided to do a little survey. How many people tuned their heads when walking past the car and what is the gender.

Well, the result is interesting.
I counted about 180 people walking past, I'd say around 60% of these where females. Only 5 females noticed the car. The men ? Well, I hate to say this but around 75% of men turned their heads, several stopped and had a closer look.

So chick magnet ?
No.

Want a chick magnet ?
Get a puppy...

....only when using it to haul them from your private jet to your beach house, and keep lots of $100 bills handy

The puppy is a much better idea.
