"Expensive Cars Boost Men's Mating Value, Survey Finds"

A survey conducted by behavioral scientists at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte in Brazil suggests that men who drive expensive cars are perceived to have higher mating value and positive attributes. The majority of respondents, both male and female, viewed men driving luxury vehicles as more socially dominant, competent, and intelligent. Luxury car owners also reported higher self-confidence and perceived themselves to have higher social status and mating value.
