    This thread is not about cars that are popular where you live. Instead, this is about cars that are far more prevalent in your area than pretty much anywhere else.

    Here in Puławy, it's 2nd gen Renault Scenics and Meganes, and Peugeot 307s, as well as Mk2 Volvo V70s and Mk2 Suzuki Grand Vitaras.

    Here near "the D", SSs and G8s bassicly have a cult following. I never see them anywhere else in the US. Just here 'round Detroit. Same with civilian-converted caprices.

    GMC Acadias, and Dodge T&Cs are usually common in my city while elsewhere in my region, they're not that noticeable.

    Third and foruth gen Nissan Altimas are weirdly ubiquitous in the somewhat-unsavory fringes of Philly. Not so much in South Philly, though.

    Everyone comes to the U.S. state of Florida to retire or vacation. Pretty normal.
    However, in Nassau County, things are different.
    The east side of I-95 has Yulee and Amelia Island. The city of Fernandina Beach holds the Concurs d'Elegance annually. Also, the Omni Resorts and Ritz Carlton are here, so people who live here are rich.
    So, in our area, a lot of new Camaros, Mustangs, Challengers, Chargers, Corvettes, and other American muscle/sports cars are common.
    But go out west, and older vehicles and more importantly, lifted trucks are very prevalent.
    This also occurs to our south (Duval County/Jacksonville) and to our north (Camden County, GA/St. Marys).
    Weird flex, but I do enjoy my hometown.

    I've seen 3 different Skyline R32s around my area if that counts as unusually common.

    Alfa Romeo Gulias are quite common where I am. That probably isn't that special where some may live but where I am those are.

    it just recently occured to me that 1st gen ssangyong mussos are apparently rare in most places. where I am, there's plenty of them still going around, most likely because a lot of small-scale farmers around here bought them new because they're cheap.

    the same can be said about great wall V240s:
