The seebring convertible, the PT Cruiser, the Aztec, or something else?

I’m going to say that at least for car enthusiasts, it’s the Prius. It’s not a bad car, it’s just slow, but not slow in an exciting way. If that made sense at all.

After all these years it really still has to be the Chrysler TC by Maserati.
Brand whoring at its finest.

And now they’ve come full circle as ALL Maseratis are Chrysler now :p

SHHHH!

Easy, the Cimarron
I like to make fun of the really expensive cars with cheap roots. Touareg/Cayenne/Bentayga, Charger/Ghibli, R8/Gallardo/Huracan, etc.

Nah, the most entertaining to make fun of are legitimately good cars whose owners are way too into them. Stuff like BRZs (too little power!), WRXs (made by fisher price, good luck with your spark plugs!), Corvettes (only bought because you're too poor to afford a real performance car!), Mustangs (wagon axle!...which is even funnier now that they don't have one), whatever.

It’s like the gift that keeps on giving. Tire pressures, parking skills, signaling etc.

Anything badge-engineered.
Car enthusiasts take pride in being able to identify a vehicle as being a “lesser” model.
Now, to be fair, some cars do have neater features or better looks, and they can indeed be more desirable than their platform-mates, but it’s still fun to shrug your shoulders and say “eh, same car”, even if that’s not 100% true.
But sometimes the differences are truly negligible, and amount to little more than the badges and the registration.
It’s even more fun when re-badging crosses brands, like the Toyota Vibe...

80s Cadillacs, particularly the downsized 85-86 models and especially the Cimarron. They didn't have a picture that said "Lest we forget" underneath it in the offices for no good reason.

Cars that aren’t all
that
bad, but just doesn’t make sense in some markets/contexts. Here represented by the Mustang.
The fun part is when someone loves the car you’re making fun of, and can’t tolerate it.

The Sebring is an easy target, but having just been in Sebring, I have to say it fits the place perfectly if you ignore the racing connotations of the name.

i saw one of these walking home after work last week. it was red, and in seemingly great condition. i tried to get the driver’s attention for a thumbs-up, but he was distracted by something on the other side of the street. [note: thumbs up specifically for possessing the wherewithal to keep the thing up and running.]

The brand of whatever car that oblivious jackass who just cut you off, only to slow down, is driving.
So basically Toyota.

Prius. Or, alternately, any Toyota that hasn't got off-road roots.

A leased, non-xDrive, base model BMW with a dealer plate frame.
Do I need to say more.

I always like to make fun of Chevettes and Hyundai Ponys.

Prius, duh. Especially because Prius owners get super butt-hurt.
