Being single is awesome in so many ways. There’s the fact that you live alone and have your own space. As selfish as it sounds, there’s nothing better than a bit of me time to relax and recuperate. Oh, and don’t forget the fact that you can do what you want when you want to do it. Yes, there is no excuse for this level of self-centeredness! Aside from the obvious pros, there are cons too. Being a single guy means you have to look on point at all times in case a pretty girl (or guy) gives you the eye. Getting Instagram-ready is a chore, to be honest, but one thing can help: a car.
Here’s how to choose the right one.
Buy, Finance Or Lease
Everyone has their preferences, and it’s usually to buy outright or to get one on finance. The idea of paying for a vehicle that isn’t yours and never will does seem stupid. It’s dead money, a lot like renting a house. Wait there a minute buddy because you haven’t evaluated all of the leasing options just yet. It’s amazing how cheap and flexible renting a car is nowadays. And, these are two features to keep in mind. Firstly, it means you can afford an auto that is way out of your price range. Secondly, you can change-up every couple of years. Now if that isn’t flossing for the ‘gram, what is?
Driving Age
The legal age to drive is 16, so why are you cruising around in an old man’s motor?! Far too many bachelors make this mistake and it’s about time it stopped. There is nothing worse than a twenty-something driving a midlife crisis mobile.
Whether you’re a hipster, a trust-fund baby or a slacker, there is a car for you according to GQ. Take a look at the options and match the model with your personality.
Manliness
Look, no one is saying that you have to be the king of the jocks. That attitude is old and archaic and pretty exclusive. However, a bit of rough goes a long way with the ladies. After all, they are opposite sex and are attracted to guys. So, logic says that you should be a man and your car will speak volumes. A Ford Mustang is cool but some less manly models fit the bill. A Jeep Cherokee is big and burly yet sleek and sophisticated at the same time. It’s perfect for the man on-the-go.
Head Turner
Of course, there is no better way to get noticed than to stand out like a peacock. Barring the bushy tail, bachelors and this bird have a lot in common, and so should your automobile. The color is vital because you don’t want it to merge into the background. With this in mind, go for something bright and light. Come on – it is summer! Curves also catch the eye, and a Cadillac CTS has them in all the right places. Plus, it has the history.
Are you in the market for a new car? Hopefully, this guide will help cement your single lifestyle.
