TORONTO, Nov. 17 /CNW/ -- No one can forget the valet parker's joy ride in Ferris Bueller's Day Off; Steve McQueen in Bullitt or Angelina Jolie's need for speed in "Gone in Sixty Seconds." From the big screen to the wide-open road, cars represent freedom, excitement, speed and sex appeal. Lavalife, the online dating giant, in a partnership with Nissan, known for creating quality powerful cars, polled singles across North America to reveal the power of a hot set of wheels.
When asked what item they would never surrender in a breakup, a whopping 71 percent of Lavalife members surveyed responded "My car." The next closest item chosen by those in the poll, at a mere 18 percent, was "My art collection."
"That could have something to do with the fact that cars are often the backdrops to the best darn days - and nights - of our young lives," explains Kim Hughes, Lavalife's Singles and Dating Expert. "Most would agree that cars are hot... by extension boosting the sexy quotient of whoever is behind the wheel. This truism clearly hasn't gone unnoticed by those fully engaged in the competitive world of modern online dating."
