Thread: You Are What You Drive

I had an interesting conversation with my secretary the other day, about how (mostly) younger people stereotype drivers according to what car they drive. I had heard about a few, but was surprised about a bunch of others.

For instance, the VW New Beetle has always been a "chick car" because of the builtin flower vase, which is too bad since the original bugs are not, and are actually "cool cars." Same with the Miata, which is unfortunate since it is a great car, and much more reliable than the old British roadsters it was modeled after. Which is why it is the #1 selling roadster of all time.

Here's a few I didn't know:

Subaru as a brand is often called Lesbo-ru.
If you are a guy driving a Jetta, odds are you are gay.
Mini = metrosexual, maybe gay man but cool if you are a woman.
Boxter = chick car. Or you can't afford a 911

And lastly, what's the difference between a BMW and a porcupine? The porcupine's quills are on the outside.

Any others?
