Default A car to impress a girl

Hello, I have been a lurker but this is first time posting.

There was a waitress at Hooters that I really liked and I finally had the nerve to get her phone number and ask her out and she said yes. I drive a beat up 15 year old Honda Accord with paint fading. I always loved Audi's and I think this is a great time to get one. IF I do a lease, I think I can get an Audi up to the 50-60k range. Do you all have any suggestions on which one I should get? Not just to impress this girl but in case this doesn't work out, other girls.

Thanks

You should get whichever one you like the most, that you can reasonably afford... I'm pretty sure you will have the car payment a lot longer than you have the girlfriend!

That being said, any S model should suffice... (not just an S-Line A model)

If you can afford it then buy what you like for you not her!

Unfortunately, I don't have as many qualities as other guys do.

I am not good looking.
I am not rich.
I am not a bad boy with tatoos all over.


The car is the only thing I can do to make myself more attractive.

I would say the point here, is to not attach confidence to a car. There's nothing wrong with being proud of your car (I sure as hell am proud of my car), but to require a nicer car to feel secure is not the way to go. Find a girl who likes you for you, not you for your car (unless your goal is just to get in, and out).

^ True dat. If you DO feel the need to get an Audi, though, B6/B7 S4 should do you right. But it does sound like she likes you for you, big guy.

I took a girl on a date with a Hyundai Accent. She was very impressed.

It was a rental too (she didn't know).

As a friend said, its all a game.

I will be honest. This girl is very hot. No, I don't believe it when a guy says I just want a nice girl. Every guy wants a hot girl. Not every guy can get one.

I am not like some of my playboy friends who go out with 9-10 rated girls every weekend. They break up with one and find another one even hotter.

This is one my few opportunities so might as well make the most of it. I wanted an Audi anyways so might as well get one now.


I would love to get an R8, I was even thinking of getting the 1st year model so it can be more affordable or get a new a6 or a5. I think the a5 looks sporty enough to impress the girls.
