Early impressions are important. That’s why we work so hard to make them count—especially when it comes to attractive members of the opposite sex. For that first date, we brush our teeth, we shower, we spend more time deciding what to wear (up to an entire minute in some cases). But does it matter what you’re driving when you pull up to her house? And does it matter what she drives if she’s picking you up? To find out, we took a quick survey to see what the 0-60 staff would choose for that all-important first date.
