Apparently, BMW drivers get the most sex. Whaddya know. Which leads me to a Curious George: Just what do all you monkeys drive?
  • Oooh, love the link. Richard Scarry (sp?) rules!
  • BTW, I _hate_ that .2 sex
  • In other news, a new study determined that asshole conceited BMW drivers are five times more likely to lie about how much sex they have. Film at bmwfilms.com.
  • shoot, i should have included "male" in there. /swing_and_a_miss
  • I drive a Saturn SL1 - great commuter car. But it's getting old, and these boogers sure are intriguing-looking.
  • I too drive the Saturn, but just a lowly SL. Mine wasn't even cool enough to rate a number. And there's a big stain on the backseat where a can of frozen orange juice concentrate exploded one summer. Ladies, how you doin'?
  • i used to have a 1974 Jaguar XJ12L sedan, which was sweeeeeeeet (burl walnut dash, red leather seats...). but my favorite car of all time was my 1984 Honda CRX. still miss it. sigh.
  • Wah...I didn't make the list at all. No wonder my sex life is so...uh....quiet. I drive a Saab 9-5 in the winter and a Miata in the summer. I was thinking about getting a Harley...
  • City ride: 2001 Audi (delightfully anonymous) Country rig: 1992 Hummer (my very own F.U.V.)
  • I drive a 1998 Honda Civic Coupe. She's seen better days, but I love her dearly. My favorite part about her though is the fact that she's paid for.
  • Don't drive. Can fly.
  • I commute via the BART. Guess that explains things.
  • 1999 Honda Accord. I've never driven anything other than Accords. I'm such a lemming, but they last forever.
  • '91 Buick Century. It was grammas before it passed to me.
  • When weather premits I ride a Harley, 1969 xlh. When the weather is bad, I drive a 1989 GMC 4WD, or the 1991 Mustang (depends on how bad the weather is) When it comes to judging if a man is worthy of my time, what they drive doesn't factor into the equation...
  • I've been without a car for nearly five years now. I like it.
  • I live in New York and don't have a car. But you would already be able to conclude that from how often I have sex.
  • I lived without a car for years. About a year ago, with family and a boyfriend on the other side of the Bay Bridge, I finally broke down and bought a car, which I only drive on the weekends. Since I'm parking on the street, it's a '93 Honda Accord. It runs great and I don't cry over the inevitable dings and love taps from sloppy parallel parkers. I plan on keeping it until I'm living someplace with off-street parking. But mostly I ride MUNI and BART.
  • BMW squidranch blushes My older brother's a BMW mechanic so I've been driving used models since the late 70s. Currently I am driving a 1983 323i which has the body of a 320i (commonly imported to the states with a 2 liter 4 cylinder engine in it) but this one is a gray market model that was bought in Germany and has a 2.3 liter six cylinder engine. Then I put a larger 2.5 liter block from a 325i on it. It is now a very fast little sleeper and gets pretty damn good milage to boot (24 city, 32 highway). Did I put anyone to sleep with all this gearhead talk?
  • Fiat Seicento. Aaaand I get no sex at all. Correlation?
  • i'd love to have a german smartcar. they sell them right near my sweetie's tennis club. i'm always threatening to buy one and bring it home in my carry-on bag. heh.
  • Coincidentally picking up my new car on Saturday. BMW 3 series, will have to tell the girlfriend that standards need to be kept up.....
  • I drive a 1990 Acura Integra RS. It's a sweet little car, and I've just broke 200,000 miles! It's red, has two doors, and goes vroom vroom, what more could a college kid want?
  • haha pete...! that was my first thought after reading the headline. anyway, only 2,000+ respondants isn't enough for me to take any survey seriously. i don't even know how to drive yet... no need, living in the big city when everything is at the end of your street, and you also love riding the subway and trolley cars. but my s/o drives our dark green ford windstar, VanZilla
  • I don't drive. I get driven. In little yellow limos that charge by the mile. Now, what about people having sex IN their car? Last one I did that in was... well, a cab, actually.
  • The dream rig, Dish? A vintage Steyr-Daimler-Puch Pinzgauer. (No, not the cattle.) Or anything that would maintain itself. Vehicles are such a pain in the ass.
  • Now, what about people having sex IN their car? My girlfriend in college kept trying to give me blowjobs whenever we were driving on the highway, in my 1991 Toyota Corolla. I had to swat her away to keep control of the car. I miss that car. And Ann...
  • I drive a baby blue 1974 Ford Maverick. All of the poor gas milage of an SUV, none of the perks.
  • Well i drive a mercedes and i aint getting none...does the correlation apply to all german cars or just the bmw?
  • I drive a bike I found in the rain near the back of my apartment. I guess that may be why I am a "wantto."
  • Before it was stolen at lotsapalookas, I had a cherry '57 Porsche 356 speedster. Since then, it's been the NYC subway. Though, if I really I need a ride, I steal my ex's XK8 convertible, it's not like she's ever in town to use it, so hey... =)
  • Dodge Ram pickup. Full size. Get the fuck out of my way.
  • i feel: ha!
  • do Hot Wheels count?
  • I have a question, if I were to have sex 1.2 times a week, what does the .2 mean? Does that mean that its sex and maybe a blowjob? I would like to see more detailed statistics, such as the median number of various sex acts that are performed in these vehicles, oral sex, heavy petting etc. And I would also like to see the outliers, the ones that get so much sex they can't even drive, or the ones that give off negative sex, and literally sap sexual energy away from those that they pass.
  • '91 Volkswagon Golf. Speedy little thing. I like to pretend everywhere between towns is the autobahn.
  • Used to drive a '96 Jetta in California. I adored that car. Now I drive a '96 Nissan Bluebird, boring Jap import sedan family car. Second car is a dinky wee '85 Mazda Familia -- the sort of car you can run into the ground, maintain yourself, and still get $500 for when you sell it to a gullible college student. :)
  • '95 Saturn SL1 - still running well (knock on wood), even though it's pock-marked from hail. It ain't sexy, but it gets me to where the sex is.
  • 2002 Kona Blast. You know how they say someone who drives a fancy car is compensating? I'm so confident, I provide my own propultion! Whatta ya think of THAT, bratcat?
  • Nothing says "I'm definitely not overcompensating" like a pair of bike shorts.
  • I drive an '86 Accord and haven't been laid since I got it. I'm not sure if there's some parallel there or not.
  • I am incognito in my silver Civic sedan. I sometimes miss the more interesting cars/scooters of my college years, but I wasn't commuting an hour each way back then.
  • Had outrageous amounts of sex before the '94 Buick Le Sabre. Now, well, it's right at 1.5 (I'm going with blowjobs on the .5) per week. :( Also, car sex is some of the best sex!!! One of my particular favorite places and, yes, I have been caught. A favorite pastime of mine and my s/o's is to explore those hidden (but barely) 'doin it' spots.
  • I drive an '86 Accord and haven't been laid since I got it. here's hoping you didn't buy it when it was brand new...
  • My everyday car's ok, but my weekend rig is a beauty.
  • 88 Subaru Justy, 35 MPG thank you very much. My GF lives an hour away and has two young children so it's not like the car would matter anyway...
  • Tracy: No, no I didn't. Got it about 2 years ago.
  • Oh, and I don't get laid. Sadly, it's more by choice than anything else. God, I 'm such a sucker...
  • Don't - or more accurately, can't - drive. Mom drives a Nissan Sunny (2001 I think), and dad an old BMW. Let's not go there. IF I could drive, and I could afford it, I would drive a Beetle.
  • I drive a Lexus es300. I love it. It's a nice car. I'd highly recommend getting one if you're looking to buy a decent car. Yes, I bought it myself. No, I don't sell drugs or pimp hoes. (Not yet, anyway!) After I got it, I started getting hit on (pretty frequently) by all kinds of girls. Well, actually, 18 and 19 year old girls... a bit too young for me, now. (I'm 25.) I'll wait until I'm at least in the throes of midlife crisis, in my 50's, before I start shagging freshmen coeds again.
  • What kind of insight does car history provide? My first was a 1939 Ford with a '42 Ford engine. It was the same age I was, so I thought we'd get along. Unfortunately. no-one told me you have check the oil once in a while, so it was sold when I went off to college to a couple of drifters who were going to drive it from California to Oklahoma. (I've aften wondered how far they got.) My parents' 1955 Ford station wagon, with a huge cargo area provided a much better venue for l'amour. Next, and some years later, was a 1952 Chevy. It had fins! It was becomming a classic by the time I bought it, so there was some cachet. Then, a Corvair station wagon. No, really, it was fun to drive, with the oversteer. Worst problem was that it would blow oil out the tail pipe, which covered the back of the car with an ugly film,so I traded in in on: Triumph Spitfire, which convinced me that I never wanted a convertable again. Those movies showing hair gently blowing in a breeze LIED. And the Spitfire had those snaps for installing the ragtop onto the frame, like the ones on cowboy shirts, but much larger and almost impossible to snap, so it was just easier to keep the top down. But, it was a sportscar, which was still an image inhancer. Then I got married, and, eventually, pregnant, so I bought a used Ford sedan from the dealership I was working for in the 1970s. Everything went wrong with it. I think I replaced every part before I finally sold it. All the cars since then have been in the get-me-to-work category. Sexy cars went by the wayside. I have to wonder what age the people in their survey averaged.
  • I strongly believe that if we all stay away from Ford's, we will all be happier! My motto is: Ford Sucks. BTJMHO.:)
  • Fiat Seicento. Aaaand I get no sex at all. Correlation? Dear BBF, Try driving a car someone has actually hear of. Also, realize that BBF is very close to BBW, whic might be a problem as well. Sincerely, Your Friend Spooky
  • I ride a rather beaten and battered Mongoose Switchback for most of my journeys. That my gf is half a world away has more influence on my weekly nookie rate than whatever transport i use.
  • I'll have to pass this study on to Mrs. Damnitkage. I do in fact have a BMW (90' 525). It's a great car and no I'm not a conceited asshole BMW driver. Conceited asshole, sure. But doesn't have anything to do with the car.
  • Is that by themselves or with a partner? Sorry - don't like BMWs, as they usually drive like maniacs and cut me up. How do you spell a$$hole? BMW. I have an ancient red Saab 900 which I drive very sedately. She's called Storm. My favourite car was my first one, a green VW Beetle called Florence (after the character in the Magic Roundabout). She had a smiling hippo on the engine cover and a Snoopy in a flying helmet on the passenger door. I had her for 12 years and miss her still.
  • do Hot Wheels count? Well, I suppose if you're getting some...and you can credit that to your Hot Wheels collection (or a particular Hot Wheel), then yes, it probably should count. But the very thought of Hot Wheels being a factor is rather disturbing. The theological implications alone are staggering. Okay, they're not, I just wanted to use that phrase. (-:
  • y'know you car sex ppl should open up your own thread, 'cause you're just distracting me us by discussing it here.
  • 2002 Saturn. Now that we've got a brand-new grandkid (yay!) we'll probably be looking at a station wagon in the not too distant future. But I let my wife deal with the car stuff; I'm a city boy and more comfortable with subways.
  • you need this languagehat.
  • Crap! Now I got drool all over this keyboard, and it's not even mine.
  • Vespa ET4 perfect for London's sunny, warm, dry climate. Ahem. I've given my girlfriend plenty of rides on it ... ahem. She has an elderly Golf. It's not sexy but it goes from a to b. I want an Alfa Spider or a 147. I have a love/hate relationship with cars ... I love 'em and *really enjoy* driving far too fast. But I also think that petrol should be at least doubled in price in the UK and should go up about 1,000 times in the US. People who drive their kids to school in London in SUVs should be shot. Simple as that. BMW drivers are obviously thinking about their last w*&k most of the time they're driving, because this scooter rider thinks they're w
  • I wonder what I meant by that...
  • Weezel, I think anyone who rides a bicycle is smart. If that bicycle riding includes any jumping or tricks, like what is performed at the X Games in extreme sports, O ;ove it even more.
  • typo...I love it even more = O ;ove it even more
