My favorite Monte Carlos are the black ones that come from the factory with " INTIMIDATOR" written on them and checkered flags for striping. Who exactly are they trying to intimidate?

I have to say I've already bought into 8 of these stereotypes, lock, stock, and barrel. BMW's aren't always driven by arrogant yuppies, and most doctors can't afford a 911.

My neighbor across the street is a dentist and he has Porsche too, in addition to a Suburban XL which he washes annually!

Edit: The Porsche he washes twice a week mind you, sometimes even after a 30 minute drive.

Motive magazine is a sponsor for fourtitude.com, which mostly caters to vw/audi ppl.

That's my opinion on most things I read. Do you think there is a car stereotype expert out there somewhere?

I think it is funny that they have the "white van" write-up and yet the van isn't even white... it's silver.

NASCAR reference. Dale Earnhart (Sr.) drove Chevys and he was known as "The Intimidator". By painting up a few thousand monties, calling them a limited edition and marking the price up, they garuntee more sale. Smart marketing.

Same reason many cars come with spoilers... they look cool.

I agree with every one of those stereotypes. That may be the first "car stereotype" article ever written where I agree with it 100%. Bravo to the writers.
