    Any truck with 20+ inch large offset wheels: pavement princess

    Usually in my area anyone who drives an FJ Cruiser is a 16 year old girl whose daddy bought it for her brand new, then on her 17th buys her a brand new Porsche Boxter

    Citroen BXs are usually driven by poor old men and beaten to hell and back. Almost always these cars are used for hauling stuff in rural envoirments, since the suspension is so good for tough roads. Almost always the 1.4 gasoline version.

    I live in a pretty affluent area of NJ, and the biggest car sterotype here is all of the highschool kids who drive brand new jeep wranglers. This stereotype is for girls and guys, but the girls drive white ones and the guys drive blacked out ones or red ones. I hate them so much because of this, as my school parking lot is full of wranglers and nothing interesting ever.

    There is a guy who owns a mint corvette c3 though...

    You haven't seen the new York City Volkswagen crowd. I'm a pretty bad offender right now myself, but those guys are giving us a run for it. the Bronx still holds it down but it's getting closer. they are also guilty of much worse sicker crimes than we are. the Honda crowd usually has stickers from the performance part company who's parts they run, while the vdub crowd does the stupid shocker and other dumb trying to be funny hipster refrences that have nothing to do with cars. again, Im on jdm type r wheels and have carbon fiber hood and trunk, and until later this week I'm about 30 mm off the ground. I'm throwing rocks from the porcelain house.

    Similar where I live, the VWs are way more likely to be riced than Hondas. There are also a lot of lowered Subarus with mudflaps because rally car.

    I ate a vr6 golf for breakfast about a month ago. his 2 extra cylinders and 1200cc's didn't help him much. not an hour later I run a dodge Cummins (I think) from a dig, and even after I hooked up he was creeping away from me at a jogging pace. very little smoke, and it just seemed like it was running right.

    Riced Civic = Douche with hair dye
    Satuns = on the poor end of the middle class
    Honda Oddesy = Soccor mom with 3+ kids
    Fiat Panda = James May
    --- Post updated ---
    The ratio to riced Civics to VWs here is around 4:1, that's only Civics to any VW ever
    I pity all those ricers that have to have a towing company on their speed dial for when they go over a speed bump or on a road with an angle steeper than 20 degrees

    Subarus with hoodscoops are turbocharged. Forester 2.5XTs are actually pretty fast.

    That was me last week. I bottomed out and broke my o2 sensor, which grounded out on the body of the car. blew fuses and all sorts of fun stuff. Drove another 90 minutes on battery power alone. I had a nice engine and needed a shell to put it in. the one I could get had nice coilovers adjusted way too low and the adjustment collars are rust welded stuck. it's great being slammed in a city with crap roads. I'll post photos when it's lifted back up should look absurd.
