Default Do women check out your car?

So, one of the benefits of owning a sportscar is getting attention from the ladies (dont act like you dont know what im talking about). I have to say, I have owned many different sportscars, and my camaro ss was the most popular with the ladies, while I get virtually zero looks in the V, which I find very strange.....and it's always clean, its black, and it even has exhaust! What is your experience?

Maybe you should turn down the thug music you have playing. That might help ; )

I don't know that it's the Camaro SS specifically they were checking out. It may just be that they know you have your own trailer vs still living with your parents?

If anyone notices my car, they keep it to themselves. Well... except the PoPo...

Yes, even with the wife driving it gets attention. She was driving one night and a SUV full of teenie boppers were waving her down yelling for her to pull up next to them. Once she did and they seen she was driving they sped off and I got an earfull when she got home.

The kind of cars That get attention from girls are the same ones that get equal attention from the cops. I'd rather be under the radar and just get props from car people.

No one knows what this car is, and the instant you have to tell them "Oh, its a Cadillac with a Corvette engine", you already sound like an *** to women.

Its not really a flashy car. It would attract the same ladies a BMW would though... although comparing it with a Camaro, a Corvette, etc... those are real flashy in terms of visuals.

Only a gearhead would recognize it for what it is.

No one notices the V unless they are car guys. I have gotten zero looks from chicks, but thats fine, would probably **** the wifey off.

if you by a sports car just because you want to pick up chicks, chances are you are trying to compensate for something else...

real men by sports cars to drive...and dont give a **** about what a chick thinks about it. just saying.

its a bonus, yes, but not the reason i will ever buy a car. i really dont care what a chick thinks of what i am driving...hence why i would much rather rock a Kia Hatchback most of the time...

and the $40 a tank every 2 week of regular...and that it doesnt have a truck motor.

My V has been "flagged" in my town since its the only one. Everytime I stop somewhere there is someone asking about why I put a corvette motor in a Cadillac. And then there are the car girls at the local chicken joint that repeatedly ask me to trade cars, sell, take for rides.... The wife seems like she doesn't care! But then again she slide her car keys to me everytime I tell her I'm going to the store or to the chicken joint.

I get a lot of looks in my car, over half the drive thru's I goto whether male or female, stick their head out, and say "I have never heard a cadillac sound like that, its badass" older guys always give me thumbs ups in it, and a lot of people are always looking at it when I pull up to stop lights or whatever

Get a lot of looks and thumbs up, but the worst haters are non-V ghettoed out Cadillac owners .

Very rarely stop at a light or anywhere that I don't get heads turning & or asking "What the hell is that" ......Probably only about 20% are chicks though

Of course it may have something to do with the F1-a ProCharger that you can hear from a block away
