Why do we love Exotic Cars?

I have a good friend that could care less about cars. He drives his Toyota Tundra around and keeps it in a pretty filthy state. For guys like him, I wonder what happened? He’s mentioned on several occasions that cars don’t mean that much to him. I think he’s a great guy, but something must have happened in his “car” gene. I then think, what guy doesn’t love a great looking car? There are the rare few, like my friend, but for the rest of us, the “Car Gene” is alive and well.
