See car stereotypes thread.

Yup, cuz every time I see a Scion TC or a 3rd/4th gen Eclipse, I look to see how hot the chick is.

 

[sickmint79]

i would use the term "judging" differently than "applying stereotypes" - the latter i certainly do though.

 

[OffshoreDrilling]

agree with the above

 

[Angus]

Maybe if someone is trying to make a statement with their car (type or modding it), then I might judge that statement...

But typical, everyday cars - no.

 

[willizm]

I judge by how they act and not what they drive. I can get along better with someone driving a beat up civic with a good attitude more than a douche driving an fbody.

:rollpicard: I wasn't referring to anyone in general, just that because they drive what I drive I won't develop an automatic kinship for the sake of brand loyalty. I'll BS with anyone about their car hobby even if I don't understand or get it. I'll at least be nice and ask questions, if they act like a douche I'll be opinionated about that though. Except for you Dan, you could act like a douche and I'd be quite to avoid being Hulk smashed.

I judge neighborhoods by the quality of car.

 

[Sprayin]

Yeah I do.

[SWORN]

In some ways yes....

I also try to keep in mind that the guy driving the "boring" car may have something really cool in the garage!

 

[willizm]

I judge neighborhoods by the quality of car.

That I do kinda do, but for good reason. When I was looking for my Vegas place I chose a place that had much nicer cars than me. This is because there is a shared garage underground and figure I'd be less of a target if someone were going to do something since the car would be there half of the year while I"m back home in Illinois.

 

[Flyn]

I have a hard time respecting anyone who drives a Toyota.

 

[Hubbard 0]

Anyone who ones a beige or tan car.

Anyone who drives a Subaru.

3800 owners.

Anyone with a stretched bike.

+1 chick in my neighborhood drives a 3g eclipse. hot little blond and has hot friends at the pool all the time

 

[VenomousDSG]

I do sometimes. A persons car can show ones character.

 

[Turbocharged400sbc]

hk owns 2 regals and is an asshole
dd owns 3 regals and is jesus reincarnate

[E]
