-Women may be interested in your car because it is expensive. Don't confuse being interested in its cost as being actually interested in the car itself.
-Women may work on cars, take some interest in your vehicular hobbies--but to no crazy extent that men do. And if given the opportunity they probably wouldn't want to spend the weekend dropping the motor on your car/truck/motorbike.
-You tell your wife she can have any car she wants she'll either go for the most expensive one, or the one she thinks is "cute" ...or both.
- Apparently there are some, that's the point of the post.
- Uh, no.
- I am certainly hoping the car attracts men, like you say!
- True, there are women like that, who will date a jerk just because he is rich. I hope you are rich.
- There's plenty of guys who wouldn't want to do that either. Sometimes a man or woman has interests that don't fit the gender stereotype because <gasp> it's just a stereotype.
- If you tell a man he can have any car he wants, it would be expensive and tough-looking. What's the difference?
