Personally, I would never date a girl that is waaay into cars. I have no problem with girls that like going fast while I drive, but if she wants to go to the meets and talk cars.....no.

I guess I need to expound...I don't want a girl to know as much as I do about cars. I like girls who like cars and going fast..but I don't want her to be a car guru and want to go to meets and ****.

I mean if your saying cuz then it would be double expensive or you can't get away from her I would understand....
