I've found that its mostly older women (read: nice older ladies, not cougars lol) checking out and complimenting my car. I think its mostly a generational thing, baby boomers and older seem to be much more interested in cars than the younger generation.

I find that people often seem surprised when I get out of the car (I'm a woman in my 40's and maybe that's not what they expect?), but I notice that the car itself gets checked out about equally by men and women. A lot of it is the squint and "what is that?" face, which is odd, because there's a ton of them everywhere here in Phoenix, probably because of the weather.

Funniest thing happened to me last Sunday. I was getting out of my car after pulling into a parking spot at the grocery store when a lady that had to be in her 60's gave me a "nice car" with a smile on her face. I was totally not expecting that at all.

Well the younger ones would have to look up from their freakin' phones long enough to even see a car so that may be part of it.

Maybe I should go for older ladies instead of the ones around my age. Way more looks my direction from 30-mid 40's than mid 20's.

Then again, they could be on the... prowl.

Those are the ones that will buy you car parts and shit. The older ones got money usually.

Just look at it as a short term investment of your time.

If you googled that then your local search history is the least of your problems...
