Honest answer is that you have two really horseschit first date cars, albeit for different reasons. Head down to Enterprise and rent a new car for the night. Almost anything will do, as long as it's nice/new and non-descript. You don't want your car to make any impression one way or the other, women judge us by a lot of strange criteria that makes no sense to men.

Believe it or not, if you had a date with some "10" of any age in L.A., a new Prius is what you'd want. It's the best-selling vehicle in CA., (I schit you not), and it says all the right things. I.E., "I care about the environment/I can afford a new car/I'm not some creep driving a weird car to front something..."

Otherwise drive the Rodeo for sure. I can't imagine a worse car for a first impression than some 1980s status symbol with huge flairs and wings, etc.. Even a new 991 would not be a great car for this purpose. It says that you have a little $$ or credit but also says insecure or a wannabe playboy. It sucks but I've found out through direct recon that a Porsche is a big turn-off for most women. :cool:

B) she will and either be thrilled because it is a Porsche and a gold digger (I find most girls don't know a lot about Porsches and what is worth a lot and which aren't) and doesn't know anything about Porsches or cars in general OR be turned off because its old and because she doesn't know a lot about Porsches. Or you may hit the jackpot, C) a girl who is thrilled it is a 930 and starts asking you all about the car. The engine, what you did to the car, if you are the original owner, etc. You can tell if she was just interested in the car or if she is interested in cars in general. Then you would know you have a common passion.

Doesn't mean you change who YOU are.

Drive 'em!

C'mon now, a loaded new Camry is more expensive. Drive whatever you want, that reflects who you are and that is always the best first impression unless you are a total D-bag and know it.

It's so hard to find perfect compatibility and mutual attraction in this crazy world, her sharing my weird hobbies/obsessions would be a non-issue. Most great relationships I've seen have a certain amount of autonomy in them, i.e. each person has their own life as well as their life together and I would expect my car hobby to be in the "own life" category.

I'd be much more concerned with making the wrong impression on some total catch of a chick. It is unfortunate that most people do not see a Porsche driver as some interesting, adventurous motor racing fan. They see him as tool who is looking for attention. I own them in spite of the image. It's not a good image. :cool:

And I'm always amused with the "new" Camry is more expensive argument. Plenty of 30-year old Porsches out there that cost well into the six figures....

Thank goodness for Tweeze to give this thread some closure. Hers was the best advice. Asking a woman about a woman's point of view....makes sense to me.:):)

Live near the trailer park do ya? :D Here in the DC area the girls are not impressed by even the newest and most expensive sports cars. BTW, no one is driving the six figure collectibles on dates, the OP is talking about a run of the mill 930, not really all that special.
