Real Men Real Style
Yeah, indeed! Nothin' more fragile than the male ego, baby! You hetero guys are so incredibly insecure it's pathetic. A man who drives a Ferrari, a Mercedes Benz, or an Audi is announcing to the whole world, "I have a three inch penis".
A man who drives a scruffy but well-maintained pickup is saying, " I'm a capable, confident man. Let me give you a hand, brother. "
@@paulchristman2456 .... I agree. This guy is pathetic.
@Robby Dey - Pashley? You have class!
I drive a corvette z06 every one thinks I'm a rich brat but here's is the truth I went to college with no help from my parents, so i got a nrotc scholarship just so i can even make it through those 4 years. I went to school and worked to midnight ever day. I lived in a van until I was 24. I worked hard in the navy and after my service commitment I decided to stay. Im 32 now I have a 4br 3 bath house a wife a kid and another kid on the way. I swear every time a step foot in my car I don't see a rich man I see 14 years of hard work
Hey I'd like to learn more of your story
Make sure when the wife leaves you which she will eventually, that you get to keep the vette!! All women cheat, you just have not caught her yet bro.
Thank you for your service and congrats
+Randall Lowe It's just you.
respect
I drive a 1988 Toyota Corolla GT-S, women don't give me a second look. Fine, I don't care, I love driving my daily babygirl corolla. When I buy a 2017 Toyota 86 next year, those same women may give me a chance..... What changed? My personality and heart stayed the same. It's the women who changed their minds. Materialistic society is cancer...
bboymonk3y women will always be drawn to power and security. it's been this way since the dawn of men in all societies.
Get an AE86 lol.
LOL!!! Let us know how that works out for you, now that 'The Women Have Changed'!!?????!!!!!
TAKUMI! MAY YOU DELIVER TOFU FOREVER~
But if you smoke a ferrari with your corolla (yeah, i'm talking about tuning'n'stuff'), you also get ladies attention to whole different level...
real men with real style wear and buy whatever they want, confidence is our greatest accessory
Anthony Delsa why would a "real man" with style drive a piece of shit?
REDPotriats757 why would a real man with style wear an ugly sweater and have a shit haircut? ... appearances don't make you who you are, doesn't matter what you drive, character trumps materials all day long
Anthony Delsa thats not true, they go hand in hand. Did you watch this video at all ?
REDPotriats757 i did and they don't... having things shouldn't determine your confidence level or value, nor should you really be that concerned with validation from others. as a man i wear and buy what i want because i like it not because i think people will perceive me a certain way
Anthony Delsa yep that's true what you said cause I'm the same way,I buy and drive and wear whatever I want so fuck what every woman thinks,the women I've had in the past just wanted a man with any vehicle cause they got tired of broke ass guys with no car and dress good and clean.
You know what's more important than a car?...is your physical appearance.. once you leave that car and go into the mall or park, wherever... people won't be wondering about what kind of car you drive or what you do for a living but admire your physical appearance.
Exactly
I already look good, already maxed out my appereance, I need a nice car
Steve Jovan Yes, but anyone can dress and groom well, there are millions of guides and videos, it is not a science. Chances are, the guy who has a good face and body, is already dressing and grooming well, otherwise, he wouldn't have a good physique in the first place. Of course, you gotta work with that you have and make yourself look the best you can, simple as that. This includes a car, house, grooming, clothing, physique, etc.
Latin Lover It was the old studies line with no link that made me laugh.
+Latin Lover All very true!!
It definitely stands true. I remember driving a 2006 Nissan Sentra working at a dead end job in retail then I moved up to corporate and eventually got a 2013 Chevy Camaro lt. People's perception of me was almost changed instantaneously. And fun fact I still visit the same retail store to shop and all the people I worked with think that im rich but they dont know im working 2 jobs.
nice haha
top gear UK: "Camaro drivers are serial killers" lmao
I actually think Camaro drivers are doing good financially. Yes I am struggling haha
I never drive my nice cars to work. I always park my 4Runner in the garage at work. On a Friday if I drive the Porsche or BMW I wait until everybody leaves before I exit the garage. I try to fly under the radar. I do not wear my Rolexes to work either. I only wear my Panerais since people are not familiar with the brand.
It might not matter what other think but IT matters entirely on how you feel about driving and getting out of your car no matter where it is , a shopping mall , family home, friends place , school reunion , 5star hotel etc... If one feels good in almost all scenarios , nothing like it to boost our confident .
I drive an Audi R8.
Minus the R8 part.
And the Audi part :(
Hahahaha I feel you man
+khalid warsame hey maybe one day bro!
aaahhh
lol
Just buy the emblem and stick it on. It'll add 300hp too!!
Don't waste your time thinking about what others will think about you. decide whatever you please and be happy for yourself.
Alvin d i sold my house to buy a lamborghini aventador to make people think im rich
Well said my brotha. It's 2017 people do as you please. No need to buy expensive things to impress other people.
tu rande what does 2017 have to do with it? if it shouldn't matter now it shouldn't matter regardless of the damn year
*slow, sarcastic clap...
Alvin D, I would don't become silly that they aren't watching you. Make your impression right though it is a slow process but it builds your reput in society.
Should be titled "How a car impresses people that don't mean a thing to your life."
Quote of the year
Beef exactly, if someone thinks less of me because of what I drive I don't want them in my life anyway.
But they do have the power over your income.
Especially if you are self employed.
Obviously doesn’t have a nice car.
I wonder why people like cars, I wonder why having alot of horses back in the day meant wealth. People don’t just make shit up wealth matters sorry, if it doesn’t stop working and feeding your family and keep telling yourself money doesn’t matter.
no not really, you sometimes need to impress people you dont like because they may be important clients.
Executive 1: "well gentlemen, do we give Jim that promotion"
Executive 2: "His sales are great, customer service scores are great, gets along with everyone. I think he deserves it!"
Executive 3: "Wait gentlemen, I have just received an email saying Jim is the driver of that big loud diesel truck in the parking lot"
All in unison: "Fuck him!"
Drive a manual transmission paired to a V8 engine and you're set

MaxiiBoii23 not really, then again I don't put MPG into consideration when I purchase my vehicles. only automatic I own is my wife's Mercedes-benz ML, and I've only driven it the time I drove it to her for a surprise.

Mr Tickles is it to compensate for being named Mr Tickles?
HOLLOW hi mate i have 78 model ford falcon xc coupe similar to the mad max car.
i bought it when i first got my license 30 odd years ago and still enjoy it
Kayone73 ha ha nah just not into euro crap like this wanker suggests to any moron taking his advice ha ha.
a car is nuts and bolts at the end of the day its the person that matters to me.
Mr Tickles how the fuck did you afford a new muscle car at the time fresh after getting your license??
I'm a car guy and I don't give a shit what people think of my car, I love it either way
Darnihx i own a Kia soul i don't care if people think oh he's a soccer dad or a baseball dad or a family man

Darnihx of course, you can do whatever you want to your car, but if you are a car guy you know very well that one thing is a tasteful modification, and a completely different one is to install three spoilers one over the other and two fart cans.
Real men don't give a flying fuck about what other people think about them
Daniel Bargas That is a lie
I believe the point isn't "caring" what other people think as much as it is realizing that things in your control affect what other people think and having the skills to use that knowledge to your advantage if you wish.
Daniel Bargas I'd ride on a T Rex if it was possible park that sum of bitch in front of Dave and busters and let it know if anyone fuck with you eat they dumbass
Daniel Bargas
What about a walking or swimming fuck? Im just curious
+5alidal any fuck
I don't care what people think. I love my '88 Fiero GT.
Dude, I had an 85. I loved that car, and I'd like to get one again someday. Enjoy!
Steel Shooter Now we're talking. Get one m friend. We only live once. And get an '88. That's the best year.
Someday, but I'm saving for a bulldozer. :)
Mine was a GT model, so it had the 2.8L V-6. I never had a chance to mess around with the Iron Duke, good engine from what I've heard, just don't over rev em'.
Daniel Groulx omg lol i jsut piced up a 1986 fiero gt i wanting to do the 3.8 swap
"I hit a deer a couple years back, the thing flew over to the side" I like how you're being very casual about it
+pranav herani I had to tell you guys about it :)
Agreed. I have a BMW 5 and also Chrysler Minivan. The mood changes based on these vehicles I drive instantly
straight to the comment section. if you're a car enthusiast who cares what anyone else thinks. find yourself a girl that shares the same passion as you. same goes for new friendships go and hang out with the boys at the local car meets.
JDMEXforme A-fucking-men my brother. in two years in one year I'm going to be driving my dads 1999 (Porsche) polo classic.
p.s: it's a Volkswagen
JDMEXforme man no one trying to push a 94 Honda
Orrrr you can have a shiny daily and an exciting project car for the weekends or fun moments lol
Eh, I disagree. I'm a gamer and a biker, and I don't find women who play video games or ride bikes attractive at all. My girlfriend hates motorcycles and games and that's what I love about her, she isn't *me*.
JDMEXforme Man, I want a girl who can kick my ass in a race. not some salty bish in a Stock honda civic.
I drive a Mercedes-Benz. No one really cares what you drive. Drive the car you want to drive and the one you can afford to drive. I have never judged someone's character or competence based upon what car they drove.
Wow! Great 👍
Just noticed this today while I was driving and the streets full with cars I had no idea who is in them and even if I paid full attention , one it’s hard to see the person inside and two even if I did I don’t know them in person they are just another stranger and that’s also how people see me from their view in other words no one cares
To me all that Matters is if the car is in pristine condition.
If a woman judges me by the car I drive... I don't want to be with her. Gold digger and faker filter.
So you don't judge women by their physical appearance? It's the same thing. It's natural to choose the best we can get.
@@MostInterestingManInTheWrld physical appearance are biochemical reaction, natural selection for all animal, car are not by natural
@@fantasy-or3pi It only seems that way because you don't understand. Attraction to physical appearance is rooted in a natural instinct to choose a mate with healthy genes for the children's sake and for protection. Attraction to signs of the ability to provide are also rooted in an instinct to join oneself with one who can give their children access to more resources. You see the same thing in the animal kingdom. It's all natural and it's your job to compete.
The Most Interesting Man in the World you misunderstood his point, what he was trying to convey is that women who are only interested on the car (money) and not the man inside it are not worth the effort, not that it’s bad to be intrigued by someone economically successful, as long as you care about him.
The same can be said about physical appearance, we may feel instinctively attracted someone good looking, since it sends the message of good health, but if we don’t care what’s inside of that attractive head, then that’s not good either.
You’re car doesn’t even have to be expensive it just can’t look a piece of shit
I drive an Audi A4 and everyone assumes I was born rich and never had to work for anything in my life. The truth is I have been working since I was 12 and was very poor as a kid growing up.
How old are you now
The Audi tells me you pay more attention to real quality and less to largely undeserved reputation than if you drove a BMW. Or, to be more fair, reliability, durability, and simplicity of maintenance are as important to you as the machine's very best performance when brand new and under perfect conditions.
If a man drives any Land Rover product, it tells me he doesn't mind a 150 mile tow and a 3 week wait for a simple repair that only requires 2 hrs of shop time.
A4 says I can't afford anything but an entry level luxury car! An A5/S5/A6/S6 might be a start as far real upscale. Even an S4 says I can afford something than the bottom end Audi.
Except that BMW has the most loyal customer base of any luxury brand. The first 4 years are zero out of pocket costs. Even the oil changes are covered. So it's not just a good car when brand new but good for 4 year or 50000 miles. CPO make up the majority of cars sold that are over 4 years old meaning you are covered for up to 6 years or more. Beyond that if BMW costs you more to maintain then you can afford you should not have bought a BMW as you can't afford it.
Most importantly BMW drivers point to the way the car drives as the reason they keep buying the brand. Audi has come a long way but it's driving character is not on a par with BMW as of 2016. Audi continues to put hang it's engines over the front axle which is a not going to give a sports sedan the ideal performance.
It styling is boring according to buyers.
haha audi simple maintainance? U are joking right?
Im 24, my first car is a 2010 nissan altima and now im saving for a lexus is 250 2014. Drive what you can afford or work hard for what you want, simple.
Get an acura tls 07 - 08 and you will NOT be dissapointed
Get the 350, its a V6. The 250 will probably disappoint you
Zioni Allen nope, since the first time I saw that lexus IS I felt in love with that car. I just love the exterior design, rear light, daytime running lights and the interior is gorgeous plus the seats are comfortable as fuck
DaOldSchoolRapLova96 Yeah after doing research the 350 its the best option though more expensive but I plan to have this car for several years so I want something that really keeps me excited to drive. I work at a dealer and the other day I took a 250 and tried its power and yeah its a bit slower.
David Clark like I said before...if you really want something learn to save. I got my license on december and it was not until in march that I bought that car.
Yes it does, I drive a Camry 2016 and my other friend at the same company drives a Mercedes c class and it people feel obligated to respect the person who drives the Mercedes. When we go out somewhere, restaurant, malls or a meeting. Driving by with a luxury car makes people treating you differently. No matter how successful or have money in the bank. Your car is a statement of your success.
Your comment is underrated!!!
Bill gates drives a Honda
Mercedes? A real man don't care about luxury cars ....how about a black truck?.. ready for get things done! And adventurous
@@Flosseveryday bill gates gets no bitches 😂😂
You don't need to spend a lot of money on a car to have it create a positive look for you.
Just keep it clean, smelling nice, and polished.
17% of people judge attractiveness on intelligence.
57% of people judge attractiveness on vehicle driven.
Damn it, society...
Cjw true!
Intelligence is tricky as far as human attraction goes because too much intelligence comes with its own set of problems. The more intelligent you are, the more likely you will be depressed, did you know that? But having an expensive car says that you're a resourceful man who can support a woman's children. That's naturally attractive to women.

Nick Hentschel good choice!

Warren Beres In Arizona they spent millions of dollars and hundreds of man hours on creating larger and "prettier" bike lanes...That nobody actually uses.
It does not matter your age, if you drive a Mercedes, people always assume you are classier than normal average people.
I'll assume that you are boring.
sorry, I swear I am not, I just said it because I am a really passionate about cars and Mercedes is a classic. I didn't intended to offend anybody.
I wouldn't say that's "always" what people assume, but I'd definitely assume more class than say the BMW and Audi drivers having a pissing match in the comments above.
People who drive Mercedes are old or boring people with no sense of style and or not adventures vs the BMW is sporty, luxurious and are people with style and are adventures there's been studies researches done ,
Satan
I'll give the word "adventurous" to Jeep owners and off roading enthusiasts.
i have 5 cars and 2 motor bikes, i select which one to drive like a shirt in the morning, i know it offends people but let the haters hate, they didn't see all the 12 hour days i worked away on mine sites for 15 years to get my toys. hard work boys and you too will achieve your goals, I'm 36 and semi retired ;)
Agreed
I work in automotive finance it’s a big German company that’s starts with B ends in W. Most of co workers have taken the option to drive a lease vehicle however a payment is taken out of their wage, I choose to continue driving my 2004 Outback no judgement at all.
I'm 17 and I daily drive a old rusty 65 chevelle and restoring a 72 240z
I judge people by what they drive, but not by how much it costs. I judge them by the character of their car. I don't like people who drive a base model premium car like a 320i.
Most women on the other hand would look at that 320i and just see a badge and "success." In reality the guy in that 320i is driving either a lease or a company car.
Beigemobiles are for beige people and middle management.
Furkan Turfanda not true, my first car was a c class 220cdi and i didnt lease it. bought it myself and drove it for 4 years before selling it
Yeah gotta agree with you, I hate those people who don't have money and yet still want a high-end badge so they just buy the cheapest Merc, Beamer, etc.. when for the same money they could get something much better.
It is a matter of image. 320i is an entry level car for the series 3. Maybe you understand with this example: it is like going to a Jimmy Choo store and buying the cheapest shoes. Yes, you own the brand, but it is not top notch nor middle quality, it is the entry level. You look like you made the effort to get it. We are talking about image. People perceive us on this signals that irradiates success like good cloths, good car, good taste, etc. Or like a BMW 530, or an Audi A6.
Nothing wrong with the 320i, it is a good car, like an Honda Accord or Toyota Camry. It is a good effort.
so you can't have a base model 3 series? Does it have to be M3 or nothing? I feel that there are some people who like the styling and don't need the sporting pedigree that comes with the "M" badge.
My beautiful and amazing mistress I have to agree with your points too. All I'm saying is that gets quite irritating with some people who care too much about how others perceive them and fixate over materialistic things. Again there is nothing wrong with a 320i. It is still a great car. I just don't like people who only want a 320i for its badge because they think it'll make them look more lavish; when for the same price you can get a Mazda 6 with far more equipment than a base model 3 series. But hey if it makes you happy then sure go for it.
As well when did I say anything about only buying M cars lmao? Like did you even read my comment?
I bought a WRX, I know it's kids car but I love it. No idea how teenagers can afford it though, wasn't cheap.
Parents pay for it
In my opinion no car is a kids car when being made from the factory. Just don't add a whole bunch of unnecessary stickers and a loud pepboy exhaust
A WRX is not a kids car.
@Robby Dey i would love a performance car in high school but if they bugged me about gas mileage i wouldnt care bcuz my school is just down the road 5 mins away, and the car would be put in my mom's name lol
@Robby Dey Teenage boys still love modded trucks and preformance cars where I live. Though teenage girls are rarely interested in cars that aren't SUVs or Jeeps.
*It matters a lot!!! I did a small experiment for one of my classes back in college. I drove my old beat up Saab and my new Range Rover, basically I would park right in front of a store where I could walk out of the vehicle and directing into the building. I got out 50 times for each vehicle(100 total) every time I saw a person coming in right before me. As I walked up to the store, 0 of the 50 opened the door for me when I got out the old beat up Saab and 28 of the 50 opened the door when I got out of the Rover. I guess they thought I was very important.*
neil if I was coming out of the store I would keep the door open for you. Common courtesy inherited from parents not by the car you drive.
Helmut Granda If only it was like that everywhere... people where I live wouldn't even help you if you were having a heart attack right in front of them.
+neil - Let me guess. California?
Huh. Strange. I get the complete opposite when I'm in my work clothes (suit and tie) compared to my street clothes (shirt, jeans, and flip flops.) I actually get treated better in my street clothes and get treated like crap when I'm in my work clothes.
***** Little place in Russia.
I totally agree with what u r saying because I've been through it. I'm an engineer and I used to have a 2006 BMW M5 (top of the line 5 series). For some reason, I had to sell it and started using my grandpa's 97 crown vic for almost two years. Oh man, I have seen how people's looks had changed when going around the town.
I just hear all the time phrases like "Is this your Dads car?" "How can you afford that?" driving a C Class Coupe AMG Line
The car you drive can hold you back in life? Ok that's enough time in the posh part of the internet for me. I'll stick to my boiler suit and rigger boots in my Ford Focus thanks.
Adam. Focus is the last Ford I'll ever own (still own) in sure of it. Barley hit 100k on her. It's a 04 svt focus, red. It's clean and I always take care of it. It spends more time in the driveway now then ever. None of the girls ever said anything bad they just thought it was a newer car. Also it helps it's a stick shift, makes it so fun.
What's an SVT focus? We don't have that in the UK. Is it like the ST here? Also, is that a mk1 or 2? I've had 3 mk2s and plan to get an ST once i'm old enough to afford the insurance.
Adam. Svt focus is mk1 called st170 over there
none of your business lol if you say so
LOL what's wrong with a Focus? I drive a Focus. WHAT'S WRONG WITH A FOCUS?!?
Focuses are awesome.
I don't know how people can live like this. Constantly worrying about what other people think of them. Living your life based on what others want or what makes them feel comfortable is not living. I guess I can 'somewhat' understand a person wanting to progress in a corporation by pretending to be something that they're not. But How far does that go? I say fuck all that bullshit,, Drive what you like (as long as it's environmentally sound, economically reasonable & safe). Dress the way that you like or FEEL!. Because if you don't your going to be just like everybody else,, just a corny conservative carbon copy of each other. Follow the leader is a great game,, follow the follower is just another clone robot game. live 'Your' life!! Explore & be creative with your life. When your life ends you don't want to look back & realize that you've spent your whole life living for other people's approval!! F that nonsense. I'm sure clones will disagree.
... i agree, unfortunately this stupid world, brings us down to where at some point you have to conform somewhere, its like college and a bachelor's degree required for certain jobs, fuck out of here with all that man, i know people with masters degree that are the laziest fucks ever ...if your gonna do medicine or law or chemistry or engineering type stuff yeah you need aome knowledge in that area.. but for answering phones or pushing papers, or any kind of true labor.. well you get the point.. really... those with college loans will disagree with me.. what ever, and yeah i got to my first year of college but left in that first year for a real job... 20 years later im retired and doing well.. but for tou college people yes i agree with you that you need it ..why because its the fucking membership plan that buys you a job... these days.. the college membership plan that society has built... and so my point is you conform and go get some useless college credits for some job.. and same goes for cars people conform and go get that SUV because its whats gonna get the sales.... sadly but were are still in a dumbed down society you want the sales you gotta get the SUV...
Yes, that's the ideal attitude but whether you give a crap what people think about you or not, they will make assumptions. It's often in your best interest to try to guide people's perceptions of you. It will effect your business, and your personal life whether you care or not. There's two kinds of "I don't care". One is not having a preference, Ford vs Chevy, Audi vs BMW, Sedan vs SUV, who cares? The other is not having a choice. Some people drive a beater because they don't care, others decide they don't care because the beater is their only choice.
yeees bro :D you have it figured out! keep living by this and keep spreading it!
It's not really about worrying, nor is this about being too considerate of other's feelings; the principles in this video are about self-awareness and successful living. I know plenty of folks that are happily living barefoot on the river, wearing dirty overalls and no shoes (that was redundant). I'm fine with that, and would never encourage anyone to look down their noses at that lifestyle; however, in the world of business, being self-aware, and mindful of how others perceive you - and perhaps even an ostentatious display here and there - are often the things that put food on the table.
Don't judge those whom you perceive as being above you, and perhaps those above you will do likewise.
+Sloe Bone ... ok good discription on how some people "care"... i like that analogy, ill remember that now... like everything in life it may not apply to everyone but i see your point, your right 90% or more of society, makes there judgement this way.👍
Always driven an older vehicle and banked the money I saved, now I have a substantial amount of money in the bank
I,m 65 and drive a Nissan 350Z convertible and don,t give a F.... you think of me.
Invest the money in index funds instead of the bank, inflation is real
Jimmy Kimpan yeah you are right, you should not care about age stereotypes, if you want a sport car even if other people think people of your age should not own one, do what your heart tell you, not the ones of others 😉
Substantial compared to who? It really doesn't matter... invest your money. Don't keep it in the bank.
sergio munoz Compared to Warren Buffet not very much, for me I can do anything I want in my retirement years
I drive a 66 T-Bird. Every now and then when I'm off work, customers will see me heading to my car.
When they see what car I drive, I can see their perception of me change. It's kind of amusing.
Jeff White damn thats an awesome car
Thanks, I worked on it for about two and a half years, recently sold my Toyota, and drive my Tbird daily. It still needs a few things here and there but I love it!
Does it also sound as good as it looks?
If I met you while drivin your Chevy, you'd become my best friend
+WorldWidedog0 haha we can still be buddies now!
I'm 20 years old and was 19 when I got my 2008 BMW on my own (financed) so the bank still owns it , Play I noticed it made me really big difference from my last car. Even when I Amber people always want to hire me up for sone reason cause even when I'm not doing good, it looks like I am to people. I guess it just makes them more confident to work with me and put money in my pocket. I fucking love it
Even when I have no money people just feel more confident to work with me or do some type of business, but it's annyoing when people assume my parents have a lot of money and they paid for it, cause then people may look at you and say some dumb shit like "oh yea...I bet his mama and daddy paid for it, must be nice"
euro and JDM for life !!
I'm 33yrs old, I drive a 1989 Camaro (stock and very clean) and the older crowd loves it. Many of these older Camaros were badly abused and the moral of this story is.. even an older car can be very sharp if well maintained. Keep it clean, inside and out and take care of your stuff. It's your stuff, respect it!
Real men dont care what others think. Plus i think driving a 3/4 ton diesel is cool!!!
im 16 i drive a 1 ton dually pickup all the time yee yee brother
MEGA FACTS!
Its real important what you drive and how you maintain it.
I heard in one of the movies " Then way man keeps his drive is the way he take care of life partner:
Satish Kumar good point there!
I drive a 2002 Saab 95 with 205,000 miles. It looks old but it still makes me smile when I get in and turn the key. No im not a Lawyer, engineer or a teacher. lol
i want a daily scraper and nice sports car in the garage. I honestly don't car what anyone thinks.
Mike Seeds lmao same here
Mike Seeds ... my weekend car is porsche 911S ,DD Chevy cargo van. I bought that 911 for myself and not to impress any girls or anybody else. I get more guys come up to me about the car than girls. lol
No mention of women getting wet over a mans car? I'm 24 and bought a brand new BMW 4 series m sport and instantly got more attention than when I drove a Land Rover. A flash car makes you look successful and women find that more attractive than pretty much anything
james grainger lol 4 series...m sport 😂 awww ///M sticker. I hope all of your comment is sarcasm otherwise it's really sad the way you think
+Romi Kurti The way he thinks has nothing to do with it. It is a factual observation. Your issue should really be with the women that think that way. Not with the person that made the observation.
True!!
james grainger
Yeah but those girls arent worth having in the long term
james grainger like it or not...you will give an impression by the kind of car you drive!
I love my cars and they each reflect my personality; people who know you learn that and others may pretend not to notice or care. For example, certain guys look away when I drive near them or and other guys try to drive faster to prove something...girls notice in a variety of ways!
I KNEW this was a real & mutually understood concept but I'd never really thought anyone else thought about this or even about them coherently articulating it. I've always liked the idea of crushing pre conceived perceptions though. Almost making people forget you drive that car. If your personality, demeanor and physical attributes completely contradict the normalities commonly associated with the vehicle you drive it can send an interesting message. Like a mean looking, big beard, tattooed guy driving a mini van full of children and a smile on his face. Or a well groomed, handsome suit and tie wearing guy pulling up to a business meeting on a dirtbike. The concept in the video does apply to most people. I'd say an overwhelming majority of us. But our skill, our personalities our attributes should be so overwhelming that 1. What we drive doesn't matter 2. People forget about the vehicles we drive after they've gotten to know us. From an outside perspective the car you drive can send a strong message. People tend to have and develop preconceived notions. That's just the way we're wired. Some of us live by it some of us know better than to believe the opinions our minds form without checking for validity.
As a landlord with 14 properties with a market value of over 10 million dollars, and who drives a 2011 Ford F150 pickup truck, I can tell you most of my tenants drive vehicles that are a lot nicer than mine but yet when I review their financials as part of tenant selection process, they are all no where near to my wealth. Often times I just shake my head in silence when I review their financials. Their nice vehicle are in some cases taking up 75 plus percent of their income. Yes, some tenants spend more on their vehicles than their housing and they pretty much work just to pay for their vehicles.
I once met a millionaire in Luxembourg who drove a red fiat punto from like '98 everyday to work. And this was like 7 8 years ago.
Driving a Mercedes at age 18 everyone always thinks I was a drug dealer or am spoiled or something but I actually saved up since I was 16 & 1/2 and everytime I walk towards it I feel proud because I know I got it by myself but it kinda sucks because everyone knows me as "the guy with the benz"
It absolutely paints a picture around you!
I bought a Jeep Wrangler. None of your social shit effects me. Furthermore, I have a lot more fun driving it than any other car I could daily.
I can pull a trailer.
I can off road.
Snow is nothing.
Mud is fun.
Summers with the top off ...trust me..girls
I could sleep in it if it came to it.
I camp in places most dream about.
I help people that are stuck.
I've got a winch.
I get waves every day.
It looks great even when I don't wash it for months, but cleans up nice when I take her to town.
My dog loves it...
Buy what makes you happy.
long live the wrangler!
I agree with you about keeping your vehicle clean. I had a 1969 Firebird when I was 18. I loved that car and being proud of having it was to keep clean. Since than I always kept my vehicles clean.
I think at any age passed 23, your car will affect the way you're viewed by others. Im 16, and I recently was given a 2017 Subaru BRZ, an entry level sports car. Before, I would drive a 2006 Ford Explorer to school, and I haven't noticed a difference in the way people treat me after driving my BRZ to school.. I think this is mainly because they know that Im obviously not the one who purchased the car, whereas a 23 year old, who most likely finished college, and has a career, would have purchased their own car, and thus, people will assume their career based on the car they drive.
Daivd Otk people deffinatly are judging you as spoiled and a rich brat because everybody knows you didn't pay for that car people will resent you for it
Ricky Davis maybe people who think like you. But as I said, I haven't noticed a difference in the way people treat me, mainly bc I don't surround myself with jealous, and petty people.
Daivd Otk I'm just saying people do it's good you surround yourself with people who don't but it's inevitable your in highschool driving a car bought with daddy's money
Ricky Davis Your point? I mean, I wish I could've purchased the car myself, but I don't even have a career, so what does it matter how people think of me. Luckily, my family can afford simple luxuries..Its not like Im not going to make good use of the car. People can hate all they want, it all comes down to what I have, and they don't.
hey i agree brother if you dont have the money you dont! thats why parents exist to guide you along the rails of life until they let you go
I have been in the automobile industry for 25+ years. I do believe that what car you drive can tell a lot about a person.
Evan more than the car, it is how you keep it clean, and maintained.
+CrazzzyKevin that's right!
I used to drive an 87 BMW 325iX (converted auto tranny to manual, swapped the stock 2.5L engine to 97 BMW M3 engine) my dad gave me on my 23rd birthday, and I had no problems with people whatsoever. And just 2 years ago, I got a BMW 535d 2nd hand and still got no problems with people even though I'm driving a diesel. Don't be shy on driving a diesel vehicle because IT IS STILL A VEHICLE that can drive you from point A to point B, right?
I think the vehicle you drive says as much about you as what you wear. It is part of the image you present to those around you
I recently just bought my first car, a Subaru Outback. Before that, I had been driving a 1999 Explorer, which was the car my parents bought me for my 16th bday. The Explorer was a damn good vehicle for its age (had it for 6 yrs without any problems), but the Outback gives me a little more confidence simply because I paid for it myself! To me, it’s a physical reminder of the hard work I’ve been putting in.
If you comment bragging about the car you drive...you missed the point entirely.
This is a complex question, depends where u live and the people around u, i buy cars for me and not to impress others, people do judge and most have no idea what they are talking about!
I drive a c63s. It just comes with the territory. It used to irk me, but I eventually stopped caring as much. I get far more positive reactions than negative ones. You also have to admit deep down, you definitely bought it because of the attention it would give you.
I drive a corvette daily lol
Nice!
I drive Daily a 2003 SVT Cobra and I work at a building with several of law firms and plenty of attorneys who mostly drive Audis, BMW, Mercedez my car sticks out
corvettes are the best bang for your buck
+Wil Badillo Two problems with mustangs, 1) It's a Ford, which means it spends more time being repaired. 2) Practically everyone in the neighborhood owns one.
+Arthur Eskidjian you're dumb 😂
I don't haves a car does the bus out a bad image on me? I take uber when I can also.
To women it's a red flag but I appreciate people who commute around to and from work.
I'm in the process of getting my license back, so I've been taking public transit for many years now. In my area (Portland, OR) we have one of the best and most prevalent public transportation systems in the country, so it's much more common for people even with vehicles to take the bus or train often. However, if it is a first date, or an important meeting, I will almost always take an Uber either to, from or both, depending on when the person is going to see me (whether its arriving or departing). Of course, I don't lie about my transportation, but I do find I give a better impression in those scenarios when I arrive or depart in a car vs. a bus.
jervazz hammond just get on that grind bro that's what I did because the bus had me realizing I don't like being in public transportation with people I don't know and usually wilding the fuck out
jervazz hammond the bus is the worst
jervazz hammond if it's women that's hot or even decent they like how we going to go anywhere with your bus pass...
Mr. Antonio, you are absolutely right. Over here if you turn up to meet a client in a beat up old car, most likely you won't get the job. Even if you do get the job, there would be so much haggling over the contract price. But if you turn up in a upper echelon car, the confidence level rises significantly. People have great respect in what you drive.
Very true!!!
Ive asked people about the energy I send out when I pull up to school in a classic hot rod or truck, and everyone says I look like a badass. then you get to know me, and im quite far from what the vehicle says about me
***** yeah, been thinking about expanding, maybe buying another place to rent out. But with the way the market is, not gonna happen soon
***** thank you, and i wish the best for you too
***** I do care for a man i would consider brother
i drive a tuned old volvo v40, and i don't give a shit, what somebody thinks about my badass daily
"old"
old becuase it's the first generation of the v40
love those things get the right set of wheels and they will look gorgeous, i like the 850r too
Don't know if I'd consider that bad ass looks like a basic commuter car
Nord mann Volvos are shit.
I drive a BMW 2 series coupé as a 30 year old IT consultant. Never had any problems. I never brag about it or tell anyone. When I get dicovered they’re just suprised in most cases. An average business car for a junior/senior is Renault Clio or Volkswagen Golf. I do realize that people get more expectations from you when you drive a more expensive car.
I drive a Subaru Baja, no one knows what the fuck to make of it, or me. Perfect.
Doesn't matter what you drive, wear or look like. As long as your confidence is a 10/10 you'll do fine.
It does matter...says a lot about that person
Thank u now should I get a mustang, camaro, or Honda?
I wear H&M suit sometimes, they are cheap and looks good. My daily is a 2014 Shelby GT500. Not gonna lie, people thinks my suit are expensive. lol
Another judgement effect on top is music.
I'm an 18 year old student, and when I drive around town I usually drive either a duct-taped together old Ford, or a shiny Nissan Qashqai. I could definitely tell that when I met people and they saw my car, especially if they were older, they would act just that little bit more condescending towards me if I was driving the duct-taped Ford.
Now the music part; I usually have the music come through my phone as long as the car has an aux port in it. My "all songs in one" playlist on Spotify features a very, very broad range of music genres, ranging from traditional Jazz to power metal. I've noticed that people that I'm taking somewhere and who don't know me that well react very differently depending on the music. If it's one of the more "normal" genres, they don't seem to care; this includes rock, pop, metal, country, etc. But when I have Rap music on (this is especially in the Qashqai) they seem to think that I'm a spoiled rich kid. If I have the jazz music on, they often seem to think of me as a little quirky and unusual, whether in a good or a bad way depends on the person.
I need to cover this someday! *****
Real Men Real Style yes you should, could be an interesting topic and something we all think about.
ive had this experience as well very insightful welcome to the best part of youtube
Alphonsus Jr. You have failed to put out any reason why someone should nit listen to rock or rap besides merely claiming that these are a part of today's neobarbarism, an idea which you need to support with evidence. It is not hard to see that any kind of art can contribute to our culture as long as the goals of Creating such art are not rooted in such mundane things as merely making money. The quality of most modern rap is low, yes, and that is why there is but a smalll amount of artists who I listen to.
As for passion. It is true that letting your passions control yourself completely is not only undesirable, but arguably immoral. However one should not completely disqualify the fact that this issues, like all issues, is made of shades rather than concrete black and white. Is it not passion which lets us further the human species as a whole? Is it not passion which allows us such feelings as love and comradery? Is it not passion which truly makes us human?
I do agree that large amounts of modern music are, like you so cleverly put it, "sonic heroin", as that is its purpose in most cases. However I would argue that this is again an issue of passion. The people who create this music don't have the passion for it; instead they try to make the kind of music that appeals to the largest possible demographic and this is how we get all these artificial boy bands and extreme amounts of autotune.
Indeed, I would say that our current society could use a bit more passion.
Nothings worse than driving a qashqai
i'm 14 and i own a 1970 lowered vw bug. everyone my age judges me, but everyone over 30 year old love it.
Am in Nigeria. I used to (and I still have) Mazda MPV 1994 which I really kept clean and neat daily to work. Fact that I kept the vehicle clean and on point sets me part as it earned me a couple of respect among colleagues. however, I just got me a new LR3 and my respect-o-meter went from that Clean MPV guy to "Hey, You... Good morning!"
from the CEO and Directors alike which is a serious door opener for me being the server-room #NerdGuy.
pause 4:14 someone was talking over the video lmao, classic reaction.
anyways I drive a 2011 Kia Cerato (Forte) Koup in Egypt and the girls (mostly hookers) are in love with it.
Where did you find hookers in Egypt though :P
Maximus Alexis in the streets
theuncanspan lol, fair enough.
I purchased a 1998 BMW Z3 Roadster with a 1.9L engine a few months back that was brought up from California to Edmonton by a returning snowbird. Very happy with it, as it delivers good fuel economy, handles and rides well. Paid $8500 CDN for it. I drive normal, but my BMW brings out the worst in other drivers. Must be an OILberta thing ! Having more fun than I bargained for!

It's really sad that people judge other people by the car they drive. There have been a lot of pranks on RUclips testing this and you can definitely see it is true. I'd have to say though it also depends on what city you live in. I'm a young business owner with 2 companies who lives in LA, good looking, but I drive a Honda Civic 2012. I'd have to say, it has been a turn off to some girls in the past for me. I'd rather hide the fact I make a decent living for someone my age to weed out any potential gold diggers.
arekkusu105 It is sad, but also reality. It's hard to see past the superficial.....
you have a 2012 CIVIC tho!!! i have a 1991 LEXUS LS400!!! but i manage to date decently beautiful women tho :]
Real Men Real Style how can you express yourself past the superficial? i want to see how you can act and represent yourself in a gentlemanly way while wearing a plain white T in a Chevy cobalt.... game on.
the outer reflects the inner... that is so provably false I want to laugh! but you and a good percentage of people actually think your correct... it makes me cry );
you are so predictable :P
Haha, I don't need to worry about this cause I don't have a driving license.
Whereabouts do you live and/or how old are you? It's interesting to see what size cities people can live in without a car. I wouldn't even try it myself unless I didn't have the money for a car or I lived in a fairly large city.
Hahahaha nice point
+TheNugettinage I'm in college and I don't have my license I can get it but to be honest I don't see a major reason yet. I also am working on it but I am doing so for when I get back home

6:45 GODDAMMIT DID THIS NIGGA RECOMMEND A PRIUS
I'M FUCKING FRUSTRATED NOW.......#TRIGGERED
Tom yeah......Nope.
Tom no matter how much power you put into it, it's still a Prius in the end.
Tom and if you really had an 800 HP Prius, wouldn't you want to have video content on it??
Tom bye nigga
Between 1996-2010 I had 2 Cadillacs,an Avalanche and a Lincoln because I was younger and was more image conscious. I found out I really didn't care for the attention that they brought so I bought a 2010 Hyundai Elantra brand new (the Avalanche was the only other one I bought brand new) partly because I didn't want so much attention. Not only do I not get a lot of attention with it,but it also gets great gas mileage and only sees the shop for preventative maintenance! It's so far the best car I've ever had!
If I drive a highly tuned Prius and have the Toyota logo removed and have a Lexus logo added what would y'all think lol
The Revived Tech rice rice jk
its a 2017 tesla solar space shuttle uber?
You're fucking disgusting. Take the Lexus badge off you joke.
Damian is rather upset.
Damn fucking right I'm upset that someone would sully a Lexus badge like that.
the title of this video should be: how to impress shallow people.
its all about appreciating what you got and value What you got and taking care of it no matter if its a old car or a corolla if you can't take care of a simple vehicle What makes you think you would appreciate a newer vehicle you will always want more
You can NEVER go wrong with a german sedan, or a Volvo.
dude volvo ? only if you are 40 have 3 kids and a wife that tells you what to do and what not to do
***** Some guys are into that! Especially if she wears leather.
*****
You underestimate Volvo's.
I did enjoy this video. I do have concerns however that we are trying to train men to look a certain way and drive a certain car in order to receive the best perception. I do feel like all of your videos make a comprehensive case for men to be gentlemen but I would rather see your emphasis on that rather than the videos based on perception because they are always changing with the times. What has not changed with the times is positive work ethic, moral standards, proper manners etc. After all, when Enron crashed, the thieves were wearing suits and ties and driving the right cars. Just my two cents.
+David Brighina Good point David. I go into more detail in the article on what the video is all about and the message it sends - www.realmenrealstyle.com/car-affects-image/
What message would a 16 or 17 ford mustang gt fastback send?Opinions pleaseThanks
Buy a grey honda accord. works for everyone.
That's what I have lol.
I drive a mustang GT and I'm a douchebag
Have you crashed your mustang yet?
Marco Lloyd No. Only ran over a few people
LOL!
You are a cool douchebag
@@marcolloyd2956 yes I have actually🤣 got a camaro instead lmfao
I wanted a 4 door 4 wheel drive 6sp manual sports car. I got an STI. I'm 60 years-old. Other suggestions?
To everyone that hasn't watched the video yet, let me summarize what he says in this 9 minute video.
Does the vehicle you drive have an impact on your image?
Sometimes yes, sometimes no.
That's literally it.
You forgot:
If you're not sure, go with something boring.
i dont care what my first impression is, i love my 1993 miata
Cool
Trash car , fact
Well Mr. Antonio I drive a good looking blue and white 1992 F-150 so I don’t know how stylish that is but I get a lot of compliments on how nice my truck is
Real men don't care what others think. Buy and drive what YOU like because you should be your own person
how do people think of me when i drive a racecar?
a go cart, not so much
