    LOL! A 21-year old babe may want to see the car, but we're in different worlds. I might follow her home to meet her mother!

    I don't know if I'd call the Prius a babe magnet but it does seem to attract unwanted attention. I've never been hit on by so many older fellows (typical Prius demographic?) who start out by asking about the car and then ask if I have a boyfriend. Haha, just what does having a boyfriend have to do with hybrid technology?
    I also think I may be too visible in this car, often I look over to a car beside me to see some doofus guy waving at me. I didn't notice this in my last car, a Benz, which looked like every other car in Vancouver. I wish we were allowed front window tint here in BC. Yeah, it's hard being a girl... :rolleyes:

    Sorry moner! I had one of the cutie bag-boys at the market ask me about the car today. "Looks pretty cool" he said - referring to the car and not to me. :rolleyes:

    Well, maybe the car makes us cool by association. :)
    You call it a "geek magnet". I can't agree more, that explains why I drive one!

    Ha ha ha! Let her know the real deal and maybe she'll have second thoughts too. :D

    edit: just realized there were more pages to this... and I hope you know it's all in fun.

    Those "green" babes with the hairy armpits and legs don't do much for me.
