By classless, i don’t mean poor taste or anything like that. But merely one that gives you zero indication of how well off someone is financially . Lamborghinis are expensive and rusted out Daewoos give pretty strong indicators. But cars like this ‘66 Corvair? Not so much. It was being sold for under $16k so it’s easily obtainable yet desirable for people with a good deal more money.

Lol. Damn you J/K. If we’re talking about the observations of your average citizen, I believe Golf R is the King of this discussion.

Not sure if hot rodder or collector...

This one sold for $130,000. You could probably score a driver for $20k.

I disagree re: the Corvair. Most normal people think all classic looking cars are expensive, and they also imply that you own another normal car for DDing duty, which is a luxury. Something like a new midsize car from a Japanese manufacturer? Honda Accord, Subaru Legacy, etc. You could be stretching your budget and planning to run the thing into the ground, or leasing it because you don’t want anyone in your neighborhood to know that you’re making hundreds of thousands of dollars per year.

Mercedes S Class, BMW 7er, etc. basically all luxury vehicles because you can get then dirt cheap once they hit the used car market and there are always fools who buy them but can’t really efford them.

I’d say the Jeep Wrangler (all generations). YJs and TJs can be found for only a few thousand dollars on Craigslist, and on the other side of the spectrum, the JK Wrangler is literally the most common car in the wealthiest neighborhood in my town. And those people all buy their kids Jeeps as their first cars.

The 90's Volvo wagon. Lived in by homeless people, driven by high school kids, college professors, and countless soccer moms... And cherished by true blue-blood old money because it runs forever and lets them sit on their money like Scrooge McDuck instead of spending a dime to maintain it.

Fun fact: did you know what the first turbo production car ever made was? The Corvair Monza Spyder baby!

Prius 100%. Early last-gen models can be had for like $8,000. On the other hand, I personally know several very wealthy women who could not care less about cars, and have bought loaded Prii just for the gas mileage and “green” status.

I can’t pick one, but obvious answer is obvious

ANY PONY CAR, regardless of trim level or engine. But No top performance models (GT500/GT350, Hellcat, ZL1). Why? Because those models can be well above $60k, and that’s not affordable enough across the majority of people’s budgets to be classless.

An F150. You can purchase them anywhere from ~$30k to ~$70k.

Anywhere you show up, you’ll just be a regular guy in a truck. Doesn’t matter which version you have.

I saw a silver-gray Regal T in podunk West Virginia with a sign for $17k a couple years ago. I’m pretty sure the guy knew what he had there.

Dude, why even ask the question like that unless you mean to show off that you already have the best answer?

Original Mini? one of the cheapest cars you could buy when new, and for a time used ones were pretty much given away; you still see people driving tatty ones around, but at the other end of the spectrum, they’re big collectors items in good shape, and were hugely popular with celebrities for a while

W126 S-Class. Attainable by almost anyone, appreciated by almost everyone, and now truly transcends class.

The jetfire came out in 1962 and the monza spyder was 1963, so I wasn’t that far off!

You are a nobody on Nantucket if you don’t have at least one.

Maybe you’re a hick in some small midwest town, we’ll never know. Except for when you’re on Nantucket. Then we’ll know.

The Mustang says:

That’s a nice Camaro and Challenger. It would be a shame if they were totaled in a unfortunate accident when they were bumped into a precarious Jersey barrier.

Just seeing this now. I have to believe the F150 is on this list. I know paycheck-to-paycheck blue collar regular dudes with new F150s, and near-billionaires with the same truck, maybe they opted for leather or nav but basically the same thing.
