Is it a big turn off if a guy love to work on his car a lot?

One of my hobbies is fixing my car. I love to modified my ride and pretty much treat it as my baby. I tried to washed it every two weeks. Most of the weekends, i spend in my garage under the hood and under my car just fixing stuff. I am single right now so its ok for me but I know that not many girls like dude who is so obsessed with his ride that he might neglect his girl. Im not like that. It's my hobbie but I wont treat it like my only love. Im just afraid girls might turn off because I love to fix my car and buy stuff for it. Especially when i rolled up and pick her up with a super modified vehicle. I hope this wont turn off girls because I know I can treat her better than my car.

1. as long as you dont talk too much about your babies, try going out with someone who enjoys cars
2. If u pay more attention to u're car, HELL YEAH IS A TURN OFF, but if your girl comes first, well is not
3. it shouldnt be
4. Hunny, well then theres girls like me! I think a guy that knows alot about cars and likes to take car of it, can treat me well! I use to work with alot of Car Clubs and stuff like that..... So No not all girls thinks its a turn off!!! ME ITS A HUGE TURN ON
5. Be a man. What do you care? You will find a girl that likes cars as much as you if you go to car shows, race tracks etc.. You don't want a girl that will try and change you. Don't even consider giving up something you like so much that is healthy.
6. it depend on what type of women your dating..i went to school for autobody so it wouldnt bother me..but then u have girl that are too too girlie, "oh my i broke a nail", type of girls..those arent going to be the ones that appreciate u working on your car..when u start to date someone just ask her how she feels about..some people wont mind
7. I think it's great when a guy has a hobby he enjoys; any girl who has a problem with that, you would not want to be with.
8. You need to meet a "motorhead." Then she will be right out there with you. It is a hobby with girls, too. Hang out at the race track to find one. Yes, it is a big "turn-off" for most girls. Girls like to enjoy the illusion that they are number 1 on your list. They want you spending time and money on THEM. They want you focusing on what's under their "hood." They want you thinking about how to make their life better, not what will make your motor run smoother. Actually, it is only fair, I think, because most girls think about the man in their life 1st. But until a girl is really grown, they have a hard time sharing or having interests aside from some man. Then, YOU will want her paying more attention to YOU!
