Perfect supercar for a girl?

Today on shmee150 I have a chance to solve a problem which you have to face if you are a millionaire, what is the perfect supercar for your wife/girlfriend?

I can't decide for myself so I had a little chat with a random girl:

Me: What type of car you like drive ?
Her: I would like the Mini Cooper. 


Me: If you you had enough money to buy a supercar what would you buy?
Her: I would like drive a BMW Z4.

Oh dear that's gone compeletley gone wrong errr, ok, girly dream. I left the chat and started thinking what to do and then decided to chat with another girl, but this time a girl who really knows about cars and supercars. I asked MsShmee150 for a little chat:

Me: Which car would you like to drive on the road?
MsShmee150: I'd like to drive something that looks flashy.

Me: like?
MsShmee150: A convertible supercar that's fast and smooth to drive.

I said thanks to her and started thinking about cool, fast and smooth to drive supercars. After a huge debate between Tim and I, we found 5 cars which suited the options of MsShmee150. These are: Ferrari California, Audi R8 Spyder, Maserati Grancabrio, Aston Martin DBS Volante and Mercedes-Benz SLS Roadster. These cars total a value of about £1,000,000 so like the bags, MrShmee150 or anybody else can't buy every one of the cars! Supercars make bags seem so cheap that you could get any girl a new bag every day, but then you don't use cars like the bags - ok I'm going off at a tangent.

Then I secretly went to MsShmee150 and chatted with her:

Me: I have got 5 options for you, the first is the Maserati Grancabrio. What do you think of it?
MsShmee150: Its good, fast, nice looking, but it's a big car and feels a bit like it's for older people. I think there are too many buttons on the dashboard.


Me: So you think it's the best car, but not for girls it's for older people?
MsShmee150: Yup.

Me: What is your opinion of the Aston Martin DBS Volante?
MsShmee150: It's a great car, MrShmee150 loves it but again it's too big for me to use everyday.


Me: So you think it isn't great for girls and at this point the SLS is also not practical for you. 




Me: How about the Ferrari California?
MsShmee150: What is cooler than a Ferrari!? It's an amazing, and very fast convertible car which I think may fulfil my needs.


(I then proposed a question to make it difficult for her)

Me: You also can't deny the Audi R8 Spyder is great, it is quite small and has the same figures as the Ferrari, also a proper supercar. What will you choose between them?
MsShmee150: It's an extremely difficult one to choose between them. It's like choosing water or air!

(She left after saying this)


And again, with this situation I am left hopeless and can't choose between them. They have the same top speed, one is front engined and the other mid-engined. I can however get a winner by price, the California is more costly but against that the R8 Spyder is a more common sportscar. The Ferrari is something that makes you feel better and honestly if you have the cash for the Audi, you can also manage to afford the Ferrari so I'm totally puzzled what to choose, my head or heart!

So again let's do my favourite thing, a poll on the Shmee150 Facebook page to let Shmee150 fans decide the best car for their partners!
