are smart cars babe magnates?

I am writing an article on Smart cars. Many drivers of these tiny cars have bought them to commute to work or to help them deal with street parking, but many are finding a secondary benefit: turning heads.

If you drive a smart car and have had tons of people approaching you about your car, I'd love to interview you for this article**especially if your impromptu conversations with strangers have lead to exchanged numbers.

LOL! I could see how the car is an opener! In parking lots, I have had plenty of people approach and ask about the car.... but it's the car and not at all me! (Thank goodness)

My brother's first comment:
"I could never get laid with this"
He's a personal trainer (buff), drives a big Suburban .... and had an ego the size of King Kong.

"had"?

(message too short to post; add "did he loose it?")

I have found that "babes" don't care for this car, but women LOVE it!! Under 25 not much response, but 25 to 45+, seem to really like it. Seems like the more class they have the more they dig it: they love to tell me how they saw them in Rome, or Paris etc. If you are looking for bimbos or porn stars this is the wrong car, But if sophisticated educated women of independent means are your interest, well, this might be a good car.

Just my 2 cents based on 1 month with a smart cabrio in Los Angeles.
