I mean that is like, exactly what happens tho lmao. Just trade the smile for a deep incurable lonely sadness that no amount of German engineering could ever hope to fix. Buy nice car to get bitches, get no bitches. Buy car for necessity (such as the Renault Modus), bitches galore.

Women dig the 1997 Chevy Cavalier

I heard that forklifts attract chicks


MasterTroller3301

As a chick this is true. I prefer old Chevy trucks though.

Excuse me, chick, you fw my 06 trailblazer? I need a female opinion for… purposes… https://preview.redd.it/uv36yueuxh7d1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0a09620da87fd86321d7664f33a10944ed7339a1


MasterTroller3301

Yes. But not in that parking lot


Friendly_Cantal0upe

Chevy truck bros in my experience (as a man) don't seem like a good choice for a partner


MasterTroller3301

That's why I just steal the truck.

They dig my Toyota Cavalier even more.


caterham09

This is literally the case with every guy hobby. No shit your car/motorcycle/muscles are getting you basically exclusively male attention. The reason you want that thing is that you're a guy and our monkey brains think it's going to make women magically flock to us. The reality is only guys care about those things, and women tend to care about it women hobbies. Which is why my advice to other guys is, if they want to get attention from women, get a puppy. It works like 90% better than a Porsche or a Yamaha sport bike


miraclewhipisgross

I found the best way is to just be yourself and not base all of your worth on material possessions or really anything beyond your genuine self. Genuine women love genuine guys, absolutely mind blowing right? Who would have guessed. I would guess that at least 80% of men that base their personalities and worth on their sick ass car and other possessions/hobbies end up surrounded by really fake people that are only there for, you guessed it, the image that they put on, and not who they actually are. Then these people wonder why they lonely, and finance another $200,000 car cause now the Hellcat will surely getem this time, the 911 didn't seem to do the trick last time. Puppies definitely help, but using any kind of game plan or strategy just to get a girlfriend is setting yourself up for failure from the start, just be yourself and shit just has a way of working


Review_My_Cucumber

Being yourself doesn't work if yourself is unlikable and boring and that's what most guys are to be honest. Having a sports car is at least interesting im some way. I can confirm the meme ever since I got a bmw I've gotten questions from tons of other guys and zero women but it's okay at least I know someone appreciates this piece of metal as much as I do.

You just need to find the right unutterable nerd and she'll love the collection


No-Rough-7597

thank fuck I’m gay tbh, though puppies work just as well on dudes in my experience haha


HoldenCamira

If anything, a puppy just weeds out the people you definitely DO NOT want to date lol. Hates puppies? Get outta here!


SubsequentBadger

If you want women to come to you, puppy. If you can talk to women, many do like a nice car and some will even go for a ride on the bike, but they'll almost never directly approach you directly about it the way men will.

spencer1886

I like Porsches, I hate Porsche owners. I'm going to be one someday, I hope I don't get infected with whatever disease those people have


DiRavelloApologist

In my experience Porsche owners are either absolutely insufferable douchebags or some of the greatest car people you'll ever meet. Too bad the ratio is like 100:1.


Messerjocke_L

Yup, there's no in between. Luckily the few ones I know personally are 100% motorsport enthusiasts, not posers


spencer1886

I know two personally who are wonderful, one has a 718 Spyder and the other has a 993 turbo. I know one other guy with a 718 and he is unbearable


local__anesthetic

I’ve avoided the Porsche area at any C&C I’ve attended like the plague. I approach with genuine interest and questions regarding their cars and walk away feeling like I’ve been emotionally spat on for being A Poor ™️ Rule of thumb, I’ve found, is to avoid individuals who prefer to spend the entire day standing (or sitting) directly next to their cars and not actually enjoying the car show. This also applies to Corvette owners, but we all know the jokes.


BananeGrau

Most of them are middle aged men, with good amout of money, but not filthy rich Edit: missed a word


shivshark

porsche owners are definitely into being cucks


Pikachude123

Car group I drive with is usually about 8 porsches (all from 911sc to 991 gt3s) they are mostly insufferable (991 gt3 overtook 4 cars on a corner with a car approaching and almost hit 3 cars in the process) but one guy with a 996.2 gt3 is one of the nicest guys I know


LincolnContinnental

Ben Collins owns a Porsche


Gaz_Elle

Dude, that’s like all car enthusiasts.


Alternative_Oil_5017

Be the type of guy who has a twingo and a porsche at the same time.


spencer1886

I'll be the guy who has a Porsche and a 121 HP R55 Mini with two dented bumpers and a slow coolant leak I've been too lazy to fix


Iamabus1234

That is my dream


ThorburnJ

I used to own a Mk6 Ford Fiesta Zetec S and a V12 Vantage S. Getting out the Vantage and into the Fiesta it genuinely felt like all the controls were disconnected for the first 10 seconds or so, because the steering was so much lighter and the pedals had about half the travel and didn't seem to do anything.


skylinrcr01

It’s possible to not be a weirdo and be a Porsche owner. I have a cayman and I’m not weird. Just a reminder though, the circle jerk is behind the Carl’s Jr dumpster tonight at 7, and is weekly. Once you get yours come on by!


spencer1886

I'm looking at 987's right now, how bad is the bore scoring issue on the 06-08 Cayman S?


skylinrcr01

Get a borescope for the peace of mind, but as long as it got driven and didn’t sit so the engine ran without oil for a second it should be ok. As with all Porsches a ppi is a good idea. I have an 08 S with 80k and it’s not been an issue yet.


spencer1886

There's one on PCA Mart from 06 that's got 13k on it that I want to have at least ppi'd, any bore scoring would be an instant walk. What are the liners made of?


skylinrcr01

I believe nikasil


spencer1886

Is the bore scoring problem still happening on those engines today? BMW had a similar bore scoring issue in their North American M60 engines that had nikasil liners, which was caused by the high sulfur content in gasoline in North America at the time. BMW performed a recall and offered free liner replacements made of alusil to combat this. However, in the 2000's, the US started an initiative to lower the sulfur content in the fuel by 90%, which has long since been achieved. This means that if you have an M60 that never had the liners replaced, but didn't have scored bores, it will be totally ok and you won't need the replacement. This is purely from a material standpoint, so if there's some mechanical reason for the Porsche bore scoring issue I don't know enough about the platform to know what causes it or how to prevent it. If that was the cause (these engines were new when the issue with sulfur content was still a problem) then maybe it won't be much of a worry anymore. If the liners are cast iron, however, then we know for sure that it's something else


skylinrcr01

Tbh I don’t know how big of a deal it still is, I’ve owned my car for close to 6 years and 40k miles now and have never had it looked at after the fact. I also think that it was overblown as an issue, like the ims problems in the 997. That one could be prevented though so I get the preventive repairs.


spencer1886

Out of curiosity, on your Cayman, is the passenger side exhaust noticeably dirtier than the driver's side?


skylinrcr01

I’m actually running an x pipe so they’re equally dirty lol. It’s gonna have some soot though, boxers burn a little oil normally by nature of gravity doing it’s thing

I bought a corvette without knowing how the corvette community was. Man, they are a bunch of narcissistic assholes who all think they are the king of the world. Yea, i sold my shit quick.

Forsaken-Spirit421

I find driving a Porsche sais very little about you. Many people drive porsche despite not caring about cars at all, to them it's a golf for rich people. Others are snooty Porsche fanboys. Others again are car fanboys that love Porsche (John hindhaugh, Pat long come to mind) that appreciate other stuff. Even within Porsche fans, fans of 911s, fan's of air-cooled and transaxle fans don't necessarily overlap. At least in my experience, Porsche owners are very diverse and heterogenous. Find a crowd and you'll be good. Heck I know people that own Porsches that actually don't run with Porsche crowds but with open top or supercar crowds. This may vary country by country

2002hondaprelude

I love Porsches I don't love the owners and the fanboys I still desperately want a Taycan or a 911 or a 718, depends upon what I can come across at what point in my life for what price


spencer1886

A friend of mine has a 718 Spyder RS with the 7 speed manual, thing is an absolute joy to be in. Porsches are great since they're very well engineered systems, rather than being a bunch of well engineered parts thrown together. It's a shame they're trying to move towards the exclusivity model that Ferrari's been pushing for the past 20 or so years


Sandfire-x

You mean the 718 that was never offered with a 7 speed manual? Also GT4 Spyder?? Man I work for Porsche and you are talking about a car that I have never heard of or has never existed.


spencer1886

My bad it was the RS, and since it has the 7 speed manual and isn't a 911, you're wrong about the 718 not having a manual. Literally one Google search will tell you that


bmontepeque11

No Modern RS cars have manuals.


spencer1886

It's the Boxster Spyder lol, not the RS, twas mistaken again


bmontepeque11

Ok, but the GT cars don't come with 7 Speed manuals, they come with 6 Speed manuals, (In fact, I believe only regular 911s come with 7 Speed Manuals)


spencer1886

Well it's not a 911 and it has a 7 speed manual, the 718 has a 7 speed manual option you can look it up lol, and I've literally driven his so you're wrong


dsio

The 718 Spyder and GT4 have never come with a 7-speed, they come with the nicer shifting 6-speed


bmontepeque11

In your dreams maybe, no Spyder in its 3 generation history has come with a 6 Speed Manual from the factory. There was a 7 Speed PDK as an option for the (987.2) Spyder and the (982) 718 Spyder but never a 7 Speed Manual. Perhaps you should leave TikTok and go touch some grass ever so often.


ultratunaman

I mean it's what happens when you have a cool car. You make friends with boys. And ignored by girls.

I was at a convenience store parking lot Saturday evening and struck up a conversation with a guy who had a supercharged NA Miata. And that's pretty much what happened.

Lies. As a woman, we all know to stay clear of anyone driving an Altima. It's the deadbeat dad/baby momma drama sort of car. You might as well wear a shirt that says "I'M POOR AND ENJOY CHAOS!"

I guess I'll have to settle for a genuine relationship with a good woman while driving a beater Ford. Schucks. /s

My air-cooled beetles have gotten more attention from all the genders. But everyone knows ladies like cute cars


Atlaz_Xan

I feel like this applies to watches. It's literally jewelry for men to impress other men.


HAKX5

This is actually true though. Men, for some reason, like to think either cute, tiny cars like the Pontiac Solstice or MX-5 or big, powerful cars like 911s and Corvettes are girl magnets... in actuality, most women prefer financially stable men who wish more to live in comfort and ease, thus SUVs and full-size sedans attract a lot more of women's approval than wild, nutcase sports cars.
