How much does a nice car matter?

I am so back and forth on the whole concept with this one. There is the BB bmw then there is the alpha rich...

At any rate I don't think its needed. I think you'd do better to have a newish car that you like because it compliments you as a person so that you aren't getting a car for some girl. I had a shitty car (college car) then I bought a used import. Slightly better having a lux car but really I'd be happier in a gt mustang or 2009 corvette

In high school, it's a big deal. In the real world, not as much. Unless it is soemthing you want for yourself. Most girls really don't care what kind of car a guy drives. What they do care about is how much disposable income the car represents.

Car matters. I can't find it right now but there is a lab experiment shows that women judges man by the car they drive. Doesn't matter to me what they think though.

I also am a car guy and just get the BMW bro. Forget about the hoes and get it for yourself.

You should only use the transportation you need. If you need to get to different places a lot where limited public transportation is available, get a car. If you live in a European city and work in/around it, don't get a car.

Women who say you need to grow up and get a car are simply trying to shame you into BB who will drive them around

This is a very hit or miss issue with girls. I am a car guy and have had everything from an RX7, 328i to Mazda speed 6. Some girls really dig them, others could give 2 shits. As long as it doesn't look like shit you safe.

If that's part of your game then go for it. Obviously you're not doing the "homeless weed dealer surfer dude" motif. lol

You are a car guy, drive whatever the fuck you want. A friend of mine is a big fan of a really old Volvo (it is over 30 years old). After his first Volvo broke down he bought another one, the same model.

Do you think women and their preferences were part of his decision process? Hell no. It is his passion.

Of course it raises your SMV, but buying a car to attract women is putting them on a pedestal. Elliot Rogers had BMW too, but it was still Elliot Rogers behind the wheel.

I could write a few sentences about buying or leasing a new car and how it is a waste of money, but I'm not here for financial advice.

Very little. Might help seal the deal if a woman's already interested or with high school and college girls. Beyond that, there are more important ways to boost SMV.

In fact there's even a sub-chapter in No More Mr Nice Guy about how attachments shape Nice Guy's identities and thirst for external validation/approval too much. Go read it.
