What does your girlfriend/wife think about your F-bod?

So how do chicks view our cars? Ive heard everything from "that looks so cool/fast!" to "thats the biggest piece of white trash ive ever seen!"

What does your significant other have to say about your car?

My girlfriend loved my camaro, and loved my 'bird even more. (until she backed into it and totalled it) Now she cant wait for me to build my next camaro, and even wants to help me with the greasy stuff!!! (thats love )My ex-girlfriend hated all my cars because they took attention away from her. Maybe it depends on the girl? Do you see your car as a chick magnet? Lets discuss this issue once and for all!

my gf thinks my ta is nice but she doesnt really care and i asked her about it and she says girls really dont care unless the car is a pos or is really really expensive , but she likes it but doesnt wanna own one or anything . Im kinda dissapointed that my ta isnt a chick magnet since its red and silver , lowered , flashy , but i guess if i had a civic or wrx then they might like it better. o well i love my trans am and will keep it forever.

Well.. she's right here!

Q: What do you think of my F-Body?
A: I Like it!.. What the hell are you doing?

Q: Don't worry about it... Do you think my car is a chick magnet?
A: I dunno? better not be!

Q: Do you wanna drive it?
A: I have.

Q: Would you buy one?
A: Sure, if I had the money

Q: Do you think I spend too much money on it?
A: Yup, and not enough on me.

Q: Have you come to terms with the fact that I'm probably going to spend more cash on my F-Body that you?
A: Unfortunately

I think she's a keeper. She loves all the looks she gets when she drives down the road in a Muscle car!

Now there's a man with priorities. Good thing you did that too, because if you let them get away with it once...


I don't have a significant other (I'm workin on it), but I can say that the car seems to attract more middle-aged construction workers than girls.

My wife not only loves the car, she helped me find it.
she treks out to the junk yard with me to pickup parts, and even finds good websites related to f-bodys when she's online.
when ever I want to spend money on the car, she only asks what I'm getting for it.... now that's love
