Most ladies don’t get a rats butt what you are driving, so no I wouldn’t include it in your info on dating sites.

The look on her face was priceless. Total 360. She was devastated lol. Snobby after that and wanted the date to end quick. On the date she complained about her ex husband and such as well.

Haaa! median age… I’m 54, although fortunate to look a lot younger (thanks Ma and Dad!)

Anyway, good luck. I think the online dating scene sucks. I’d rather approach someone in person, at least you know what they really look like!

Back to Camaro talk…

I would say yes, put up a picture of yourself with your car. Some women absolutely would be horrified to ride in a muscle car, and I would want no part of a woman like that. Some women are going to love the car, and those women are more fun.


***Based on my personal experience and 3 Camarofests. YMMV.

I’d bring my truck on the first few dates and wouldn’t bring them back to my house…unless I was very comfortable that they weren’t a gold digging leach (a rarity) Once everything was on a good footing (weeks), the reactions would be priceless. Not because I’m rich, or live in a mansion. I just think bragging or showing off is something they expect, are used to, so they’re surprised.

Like me or not, with or without my crap.

It depends on if OP is looking for fun or someone for the long run. If you are looking for someone for the long run then yeah, makes sense to be more low-key upfront. Just for fun, it really doesn't matter then.

Don’t you mean a total 180?

Yea lol. Thinking of a 360 donuts I guess since it's a muscle car forum.

Having car pictures in the profile sounds like a big red flagfor women. Like you want to signal that you will talk about your car all the time or want to attract gold diggers.

Just get to know people for yourself. If she happens to like to talk about cars too, the Camaro will come up on it's own. If she doesn't care about cars, she will not care.

Save yourself time and money and just rent a hooker for the night.

She did a 360 then reversed out

I don't have my cars on my dating profile, I really don't want them to know much about me until I decide they're worth the effort. It doesn't matter anyway because these days 80% of women's profiles are fake, "Message Therapists", or they are just advertising for their Instagram.

When I got together with my wife in 1999, I was driving a 1998 Dodge Neon (yes with rear roll up windows - power front thought), she had a 1999 Corvette Convertible and a 1998 loaded Malibu.

Hard pass on a woman looking for money, I want a woman that holds her own.

Been married over 20 years.

What's this dating profile you speak of? So glad I never have had to setup something like that.

[Village Idiot]

If you're trying to attract other guys yeah throw it on there. Girls, no they don't care

[foshjowler]

I think you want to be doing something with your car if you include it. Don't have a picture of just your car. Like I have me racing the Miata and standing in front of a couple of my cars over the years. It's good to show your interests/passions. Also, most of the recent pictures of me include cars in some fashion. If being a car person keeps a match away, then they would have run after the first date or two anyway.

+1, another one of those modern day perversions of technology IMO...
