The more fundamental, evolutionary psychology issue is that of financial and social status. Chicks are programmed to like dudes with nice cars. But hey, you go save the planet

Hmmn, what's more impressive. A guy on a pushbike pulling a wheelie for a few seconds or me pulling a 20 second drift whilst leaving a trail of rubber on the road?

Wasn't it 'conclusively' proven on Top Gear that hand brake turns make girl's clothes fall off?

No they barely noticed them when with friends. Crashing into caravans helped but only for a moment.

Just realised something today. There's a lady at the place I work who lives just near me who gets a lift everyday as she lost her license 6 months ago.
Obviously she gets it easy because she gets a lift but she said she found she very quickly got used to not having a car.

Unfortunately she has to drop off her son at school every morning and so can't set off early enough to make it on time.

I do not have a car, and it is a pain sometimes but it is not essential.
