What do you think are the most "trendy" and/or "fashionable" cars on the market today? Don't hesitate to break them down into groups, depending on the type of people who would buy them. I'm interested in seeing your list, and why.
Thats funny because its not like that in NJ, at least the not the 300M. I know of one other student, besides me who has one at my school (about 10,000 undergrad + grad) and see maybe 2 others on a regular basis in the parking deck. None of them have huge rims. Actually I don't think I've ever seen one around here with huge rims.quote:

College, or just out, kids: Honda Accord or anything Acura, because they don't remember when Honda's were junk, and all their friends have one.quote:

Technically a '5 door' by Mazda's account, not a wagon. Also, Hatchback. There have been threads on Mazda forums longer than Pablo's rock odyssey thread thrashing this issue out.quote:

I totally agree. How many hybrids would sell if they weren't a completely separate model (ie Prius) or emblazoned with big stickers, have special colors and rims etc. (ie Civic). Cracks me up when people think they are saving the earth with these, when if they were really worried about the planet they'd buy an 8 year old Ford Escort, put some money into it to get it back to reasonable emissions if necessary, keep the tires inflated and drive slowly.quote:

I think you have to combine the driver and the vehicle to get the trendy award. I pulled a Civic Hybrid out of a ditch with a '50 Chevy 1-ton pickup. Driver error. After pulling the car out, the driver told me I should be more considerate of the environment and drive a more eco friendly vehicle. That owner came very close to being put back into the ditch. I think some of these eco friendly cars trade on the idea that some people are better than the rest of us. They know it, and when they drive one of these arcade game cars, then we know it too. I'll bet that's whey the Prius will outsell the Civic and Accord. It's got that litttle bit of extra appeal. That Civic from the ditch had a great big decal on the back that told the world that this was a driver that cared.
