Author falls for the classic man misconception. Most girls don’t give a shit about Porsches. They just don’t register. Ask five guys what car a girl will find impressive. Many will have an opinion. (I’ve done this) Now ask five girls. Most will say “what are you talking about? I’ve never even considered that.” (I’ve done this also) Some girls will have an answer. Those you should avoid.

I posit the following: most girls interested in Porsches are not your Ideal Girlfriend Profile (IGP). They’re probably motivated by greedy or shallow things which is not desirable in a long-term mate. (If you’re seeking a pretty girl for casual sex your process will differ!)

If you CAN drive a Porsche I recommend that you NOT drive a Porsche specifically to weed out the girls you need to avoid.

For example some girls say on their dating profile nobody under 6’ need apply. This is fantastic information! It means the girl fundamentally fails to understand what is important in life. Everyone should skip that one especially those over 6’ (those 5’11” and below can trust that they won’t accidentally date a shallow person like that, but those above must be on the lookout)
