Honesty, something not too many people have today, is admitting to yourself and others that you're not an MP4-12C, Or Aventador. It's about looking inside, and thinking about what kind of person you really Are!
I was bored after finals today, and I realized "Huh, I'm basically a Golf TDi!"
How'd I get to this conclusion? Well it's quite simple really:
1. The engine: I like being frugal, and not spending too much. I'm also lazy, but if pushed a bit, can be a pretty darn good athlete!
2. I'd be a DSG equipped 4-door! DSG, because I'm lazy, and like to "Go with the flow"/follow trends. 4 door, because I like being around people, but do tend to be a killjoy on some occasions.
3. I'd be a mid range model, since I'm an average guy; 5'11", brown hair/eyes. Since I don't stand out in a crowd, I guess I'd be painted white, or gray.
4. Finally, I'd have an APR stage 1 tune, bigger brakes, an upgraded suspension, and a roof rack. This is because I used to be a competitive swimmer, am now a competitive tennis player, and I absolutely adore skiing!

Good question. To which I have no real answer. Not counting my first car (beater). I've owned a full size truck that was lightly modded, a TBSS that was moderately modded, and a bone stock C6. Not a single one of those fits anything about me. None of them equate to my personality either. Meh.

I was literally thinking of doing this tomorrow. I was actually putting thought into it too.
I would choose a Dodge Challenger RT
I know it's an SRT, but this is the right color
Pretty young (19)
Active and workout
A bit overweight
American
Good value (don't laugh, haha)
Painted blue because it's my favorite color
Mopar because I don't always fit in, but I don't really care

Built in the 80's, un-athletic, and quirky but everyone seems to love me regardless.

This is hilarious! Never thought of this before. I'll take a crack at it using your 4 points:
1. The engine: I'm the opposite of frugal. I spent every dollar I make and more (via loans) on real estate and cars. And I'm really bad about eating out. I never cook...
2. I'm lazy in my personal life and a 6-7 day a week workaholic for my career. I work from home a lot so I'm always working. My main outlet for fun these days is Oppo. So I guess it's a push since I'm both hard working and lazy at the same time.
3. I have the same exact stats as you except one inch taller. I think I'd need to be a mid range model too since 6 is pretty average too these days. And while I'm not ugly I'm no male model so I can't be a Ferrari....
4. I like to compete too when I play sports with my friends. And my overspending ways and average looks would make me more of a tuned car than an exotic car.
I guess I could maybe be a tuned E46 325i or 330i ZHP with SMG that was purchased used. SMG because I'm half hard working and half lazy. So I don't get to say I'd have a 6MT and I'm not lazy enough to be a DCT that's super easy to use in auto mode. I can't say E46 M3 cause I don't quite have the looks to say that. Standard E46 cars are decent looking but also very common these days.

White Volvo S60R.
1. I'm good at soccer, because i love running, so i'll need the R.
2. I also had an asthma, but that's what turbo for.
3. Of course it's blends with the others, and because i rarely talking with others i'll painted white and had a very silent exhaust.
4. I guess i'll have the spaceballs. I love do complicated things like making car models.
5. And oh, it's lowered because i'm a bit short.

Commence the cocaine jokes!

Haha.
If you painted the car white it would be the ultimate cocaine car from the 80s. Allegations of the founder running drugs plus white paint job. It would be perfect!

I feel like my '73 Buick fits me well. Big, tough, a little slow at times but you can tell the power is there. Might surprise you in a real race. Can carry 6 people and tow a trailer without batting an eye (somewhere along the way I was nicknamed Ox). Lots of little unusual problems (cuz I'm a Buick, nobody really understands why I am here), but overall everything is reliable and shows up to work every day.

I though about this for a while, and came up with a Fiat 130 Coupe.
-Classy, yet restrained and not snobbish
-Quirky and a bit eccentric
-Low key; even bland to some people
-Not swayed by trends (Was square way before it was cool)
-Very sexy
