"Chick magnet"?
I understand that '74 2.7 MFI Carreras may be going up in price...
But I wonder if this dude has any idea as to why he has zero bids thus far...?

If it's such a "chick magnet" why does it only show two old dudes in need of Viagra standing by it in the photos?

Hoping that he'll take some of the money and invest in a good grammar/spelling/english class. Painful to try to read.

He did say chick magnet, but neglected to specify the age of the chicks, maybe it's the only car at his retirement home, so all the chicks there really dig it.
Heck I'm going to park my 74 Targa on the grass and sell it for $35K, I think he is on to something.

Cars, Porsche or otherwise are not "Chick Magnets". This belief reflects a profound misunderstanding of the female gender. If you really want a demonstration of a true "Chick Magnet" borrow a cute 12 to 16-month old child and carry them lovingly through a shopping mall.

Yep. Sports cars attract guys. Puppies and babies attract chicks.
Of course some chicks LIKE sports cars, but the whole "gearhead" thing is not really a turn-on to them. Of course most of 'em size up a guy based on how much potential money they're worth. A sports car (or two, or three) is a big negative to them, since it cuts down on the potential $$$ they can get out of you - unless they'd rather have the cars - some would.

the writing style doesn't seem to match the age of the two - ah - gents in the photo... maybe he got his grand-kid to write the ad copy??
the car itself seems ok, and could easily transport a puppy and baby to a local shopping mall... |

I agree about the puppies. Not so much the babies. Babies indicate you are married so even though they find it attractive that you are caring for said baby you will have a tough time getting a date. If you try they will think (a) you are trying to cheat on your wife, or (b) you have a baby out of wedlock. Loser either way. However, puppies are a different thing. I once thought about starting a puppy rental business for single guys. Take just about any guy walking a cute little puppy throught the park and BAM! he will have at least one woman stop and talk every time.
EDIT: before the PETA group starts flaming, the part about renting puppies is a joke!

Looks like he is about to make more SWEEEEEEEET upgrades to his 911. His last ebay purchase is:
"Large Set Police Interceptor Emblems Decal Crown Vic (#120143150215)"

it's true that stuff above - its a weird thing really.
in general, masculine cars attract guys attentions, and cutesty little girly looking cars with 0 horsepower attract girls interest. but most guys wouldnt be seen dead in that type of car thinking it's feminine and yet thats the thing that attracts females. so i guess if you wanna drive a car that is a real chick magnet possibly this is where you wanna be:  (maybe in pink with a puppy in the passenger seat obviously) and if you wanna get in the sack with guys i guess this is what you wanna be driving:  ps: good point about the writing style and the pics - maybe its a fraud? or the good gents in the pic are street-talking bad-ass homies giving respect an' comin' at cha'. word.
