Cars that you like

The golf is definitely not the car to impress most women but that is a dumb reason to buy a car. But one you like and enjoy driving and be confident in it that is more impressive. Plus any women who likes you for your car probably shallow and that doesn't sound like someone you would like.

I guess I also want it to be a bit of a status symbol as well notwithstanding trying to impress a girl. I know the golf is going to drive really well and also quick around the corners. Audi is a 4WD and chassis is bigger and bulkier, so it'll be slower for sure but potentially more 'menacing'?


But anyway, of those 2 cars, if you see me driving, which one would look more impressive?

I'm not a fan of either I worked to long as an auto mechanic to like those cars. But if I had to pick the Audi. However buying a car as status symbol is even more douchey and pointless than buying one to impress girls. Drive them both and see which one you like more. Try some non German cars...

Ah ok, thanks man, really appreciate your advice since you've been an auto mechanic as well it means a lot.


Why would you pick the Audi may I ask? It's certainly the less popular of the two, so I'd be interested to hear your thought :)

If you're going for status and to impress people Audi will do that over VW. Audi is a supposed luxury brand. Golfs are more often driven by women but that might be true of both of these. But again drive the cars and you will like how one feels, drives, looks and how people react I guess over the other.

Thank man, appreciate it, I'll give those cars a drive very soon and let you know my thoughts.


Out of curiosity, if you're not restricted with those 2 choices, and you were me, what cars would you buy with around the US$15,000 budget?

I'll think about it. What do you want in a car besides status and sporty?

Nothing else, really. I'm not really one of those people that drive the car for the thrill of it. It doesn't have to BE fast, it just has to 'look' fast, if you know what I mean? I'm also looking at a Mercedes hatch/coupe that's in a similar price range but I thought these 2 look a bit more unique.

I think the Mercedes would impress people more and is a higher status. They are also better made cars if they are similar year and miles. I like the Civic SIs but they are not a status car necassarily but they are much better made than the golf. You could get a mustang GT in that price range. They are fun to drive and I like how they look personally. Subaru make some decent stuff as well.

The Mercedes is actually cheaper than both TT and Golf, it's about US$11,000, probably because it's not the newest model, here's a picture:

I do like the Civic, always have, but it doesn't quite fill the 'status' requirement for me.

Of the TT, Golf and Merc, and considering the prices, do you think the Merc is the best buy?

I would need more info (year, mileage, condition, exact model...) to say which was the best deal. Make sure whatever you buy get it inspected by an independent mechanic shop before buying.

They all have similar year, mileage, more or less conditions, but yes of course will have to get it inspected. So far because of the status/wow factor thing + uniqueness, I think I'm probably leaning towards the Audi TT, like you said it's more luxury than the golf. I'll have a drive of all of them and let you know.
 
You complain about how your last gf was cold, inattentive, basically shallow...and you want to buy a car to pick up women? Have you not learned your lesson yet?!?!

You know how there are people that are constantly asking for advice, on everything from which battery to buy, to which woman to date...and they never listen? And you learn that they just like to be talked about, and to sound like they have something going on.

You are that person One Love. You had a thread where 10 people told you one thing, one person told you what you wanted to hear, and we get "well now I'm conflicted". This isn't rocket science. And I don't want I be mean, but somebody has to tell you this for your own good. You're freaking over 30 years old and you act like a middle school boy going through puberty.
 
Gti is different than a golf, even though it is based on the golf. Gti is a racing car. The Audi tt is a car that makes girls think you like guys.

Buy the new racing civic hatchback. They are like $22k brand new and are way cooler than the gti, even though the gti is pretty darn neat.
 
I think the audi looks cooler than the vw or benz.

Holy ****, for someone who basically criticizes every women he knows and pushes them aside as shallow, lacking depth, and every other synonym under the sun, you have some ****ing balls.

Thanks guys, but now I'm confused, is the TT cool looking or is it gonna make me look like gay? (I don't want that).
