90s/early 2000s Civics were great. Comfortable ride and well maintainable. WTF is mom on about here, an ‘04 Civic is a great car.
Never been in one but they definitely seem nice. driving any 90s/2000s sedan would definitely make me like a date better, especially given how many people I know drive horrible modern SUVs
Definitely. I miss driving sedans and small hatchbacks, up until a few years ago they’re all I’d ever driven.
I currently have a Kia Sportage only because I moved to a rural area and needed something that could deal with country roads and off-road. Otherwise I’d still be driving my old ‘07 Accent, that thing gave me zero problems in well over 100k miles.
I sometimes miss my '01. Don’t miss the leaking taillight seals causing humidity problems.
it’s the shitbox that won’t break under you, and won’t get you broke either.
Are ‘muricans really this obsessed with cars that the model or car you drive affects your dating prospects?
Yes and it cuts both ways. Prior to transition when I was driving an Infiniti I got female attention but driving beat up Hyundais and Fords the only attention I got was from the police, like driving around with a sign that says, “pull me over”.
Post transition my life circumstances are much better but the cars affect my dating prospects totally differently. Driving a brand new performance model EV in 2022 I had at least two dates where the guy would lose all interest in me once they saw I was driving a car that costed several times their annual income.
You could literally see all interest melt off their face, “my car is the white sedan, can you drop me off there?”
Immediate flip from being warm and engaged to this cold, “gtfo out of my Nissan” vibe
You can’t have a shitty car as a man and you can’t have a nicer car as a trans woman

Sounds like you dodged at least 2 bullets.
Wait “performance model EV” wasn’t a Tesla, was it? They may have been in fear for their lives.
Decades of propaganda by the auto industry, especially through cinema and TV, has programmed people to think that if you don’t have a nice car you won’t get laid.
Are you really so arrogant as to believe that perception of socio-economic class is exclusively an American consideration when it comes to dating?
No, but the fact that a car is seen as an indication of socio-economic class is.
Plenty of people who drive really nice cars who are broke as fuck and plenty of people who could easily afford a luxury car who drive a 20 year old piece of junk.
It’s less about the car specifically as it is about what the car says about your level of wealth and spending habits
Yes, but mostly if you’re trying to attract men.
It’s a class war thing more than anything. Cops will pick on you more if you drive certain models of cars or a car that’s a total clunker with a busted window that’s taped up. Most people here don’t really care what you drive in the dating world unless you come from a wealthier background and are a snooty dick about it.
What’s wrong with a Civic?
