What Your Car Says About You.

http://msn.match.com/msn/article.asp...id=6&GT1=10287

While the eyes may be considered the window to someone’s soul, a person’s car may very well be a window into the heart. “Many people rely on their date’s choice of clothing as the primary indicator of personality, but their date’s car may be an even bigger indicator of who they really are—especially in the love department,” says Terri Orbuch, Ph.D., the host of Detroit’s popular Love Doctor live television and radio programs. Below, find her thoughts on what car selection reveals about your date (or, hey, even about yourself) and about your romance potential.

I guess this one is where I fit in....
The car: A Honda Accord or other sensible sedan

What the car says about its owner: Someone who drives this practical vehicle is most likely educated and intelligent, Dr. Orbuch says. “This driver probably likes discussing politics and is very well-read and mature,” she explains. “People who drive these kinds of cars don’t take big risks in life, but hey, that mentality has served them well up to now!” What you may find pleasantly surprising is that the driver probably has a lot of savings socked away. “This kind of person has invested his or her money well and may very well be enjoying a cushy lifestyle, but is just smart enough to know that a car is a horrible investment,” she explains. Ultimately, he or she cares about value, not flash.

What the car says about its owner’s love style: Its owner will most enjoy someone who likes to converse about life, Dr. Orbuch suggests. “He or she thinks that support, friendship, and honesty are essential to a good healthy relationship,” she says. Additionally, he or she probably doesn’t mind spending a lot of money on a mate—“especially when it comes to travel, fabulous hotels, and great restaurants,” she says. The thinking is: “I save when I can to splurge when I want.”

I guess a Kia Magentis falls into this category. It seems quite accurate in my case, except for the "savings socked away". I have my retirement fund, but apart from that I love to travel and live life too much to accumulate too much.

hm-mmm-mmm. interesting reading, prax.

The car: A red convertible

What the car says about its owner: While it’s easy to assume that the owner of a shiny convertible is either flashy or going through a midlife crisis, Dr. Orbuch suggests otherwise: “Someone who drives this kind of car has two sides, each of which is revealed depending on the setting.” She says its driver can have a shy streak (a sexy car is akin to a conversation-starter), but in general (and especially in relationships) this person is an alpha-type.

What the car says about its owner’s love style: The convertible’s driver likes to lead a stylish life—so his or her mate had better appreciate that flair, too. What’s more, Dr. Orbuch observes, “someone who is social, outgoing and extremely comfortable with others is a good fit. If you’re the driver, you will have no problem if your mate is magnetically charismatic, just as long as he or she can loop arms and feel safe while you do the shining.”

Hahaha...

This is really funny. She is indulging in a little self-agrandizement.

Let me take a wild guess here; I'll bet that she owns a Honda Accord.

What does it say about a Texan that owns two PICKUP TRUCKS? First, what is said of HIM that own a Dodge Ram pickup? First it must be said that he is very intelligent, has a great personality, good looking, has it all together, adored by his wife, kids and grandchildren, loves the things of God, loves his family, and spends too much time reading DUMB THREADS ON INTERNET FORUMS. LOL...

Other than that, he is a pretty good Texan.
