Today's Community Question: Which car stereotypes are the most unwarranted?
The automotive community is a supportive network of car guys/girls who all share the same passion for four wheels. But that doesn’t stop us disagreeing from time to time, with many of these disagreements stemming from common stereotypes.
The automotive community is a supportive network of car guys/girls who all share the same passion for four wheels. But that doesn’t stop us disagreeing from time to time, with many of these disagreements stemming from common stereotypes. I mean, how many times have you heard that ‘MX-5s are for hairdressers’ or that ‘all Hondas are ricers’?
Granted these quips can be funny, and they’re usually made in good jest (we’ve done it plenty), but we want to know which stereotypes CTzens think are unfair and undeserved? Let us know in the comments below!

All girls in something tuned are driving their boyfriends car. I can’t tell you how many people ask me if my mkv gti is my boyfriends…
2 BMWs and I use my turn signal, drive quasi-legal speeds, and use on road courtesy…
Probably a the “MX-5 drivers are g«hairdressers” is the most false myth. I’ve never seen a hairdresser driving a Mx-5
All BMW`s are driven by douchebags. I hate when people say this
Well heres one.
Audi drivers tailgate.
Miatas are for hairdressers: my hairdresser drive an AMG
Weird thing is my neighbor who is a hair dresser actually drives an mx5 in the summer it’s a 3rd gen.
The one about BMW drivers not indicating, its a lie. Most of them do.
The one about BMW drivers tailgating, is not really true either. If any specific brand, its Audi.
German cars not being reliable is bullshit. Same goes for expensive parts and maintenance prices. Although I only see Americans complain about that, so it might be a problem only in USA.
BMW drivers being general assholes on the road… We’re not all bad, just in a hurry and forgetful from time to time.
French cars are unreliable.
