    Seems like you've got a suggestions overload, but still, try to describe my father's previous car (2000 Volvo V70 Cross Country).

    Saturn S-Series, the car created when GM noticed people who don't give a shit about cars are going from them to the Japanese.
    The Grand Prix GTP has as much to do with racing and grand touring performance as Shiny Happy People's Democratic Republic of Korea has to do do with democracy.
    90s Dodge Ram - a midlife crisis on wheels, turned into a statement that Joe Dirt is your role model.
    Black Dodge D350 - the poster boy of MUH TRUCK IS MOAR TRUCK THAN YER TRUCK!
    LDV - supplying vans to people who can't afford them since 1993.
    Irony loves Zafiras. The best vans are bought by people who don't care about them at all.

    Hyundai Tucson - show the world you don't give a shit about cars.

    The Ford Fiesta ST was not a car for the young, because they could not afford it, and MG had free insurance.
    The Ford Fiesta ST was not a car for the old, because the suspension is harder than Ayers Rock.
    Then who the hell bought it?

    You ever wanted to look like a Cockney? A porn director? A human trafficer? A neo-colonial immigrant exploiter?

    Buy an S80.
    Chevy Traverse - because some non-car people want more than a Highlander.
    Picture an expired hipster. Starbucks coffee in one hand, iPhone in the other, driving with their knuckles.

    What's their car? You guessed it, a Passat!

    The MX-5 was for those who wanted a British roadster 20 years before, but wife, baby, one parking space and THEY WERE BLOODY BRITISH LEYLAND!

    BMW E46 - the sports car for those who'll never dare to buy a sports car.

    There are many passes into the world of yobs, bass and ecstasy. One of them is called Audi A3 Mk1.

    Some time ago, every young gearhead had a 323F, because it was cheap looked like a Supra or Corvette. A tall, less proportional, dented up, rusty Supra or Corvette with a 4-banger.

    VW Polo Mk2 - the official car of "I wanted to buy a Golf, but could not afford any.

    40 years ago, Ford's office drones calculated not to spend on rustproofing, which is why good Mk1 Fiestas are rarer than spacemen.

    If I were to steal cars, I'd steal Intrepids. Because the owners wouldn't really care about them anyway.

    Some people can only barely afford being rednecks. That's why they drive Dakotas. Or Rangers. Or Explorers. Does not matter, because all these trucks are rotten, duct taped together and not that roadworthy.

    Hmmm... A copified Sebring. What happened to it means that the owner knows a thing about cars. But it can't be true, because then they wouldn't have a bloody Sebring.
    AHHH! MINDFUCK!

    2008 Yukon Denali, the official car of "I only kinda made it after nearly peaking in high school".

    You gotta love Safaris. They run when they should not.

    You can't have everything working in a non-ST Ford. It is impossible.

    The Clio is the modern Beetle - cheap to buy and run,,parts are cheap and everywhere, and the car is a bit shite.

    Auris - the car for people who know enough about cars not to buy a Golf or Focus or Astra like everyone who does not know cars.

    I sometimes wish I were a sociologist. That way, I would know why all yobs have Audis.

    The Nissan Juke - a Clio for those who don't know it is a Clio.

    Sometimes you want an SUV, but also don't want an SUV. That is when you buy an XC70.

    Suburban. Because a bus had a too opulent interior.

    Abandoned muscle project car - a testament to broken dreams and unspent potential.

    Land Rover Discovery - the cheapest way to have a rollover risk and a rusty frame in a moderately-sized package.

    One day, you're gonna have a midlife crisis, an overpriced house and a pool. What is the next step? Buying a brand-new Mercedes SL. Or, if you can't afford that sort of midlife crisis, an used one.

    Old pickups, old Mercs, they all have something in common - they all refuse to die, even when the manufacturer's accounting department says they should.

    If you wonder why pretty much nobody bought a Studebaker, check their pricing and quality. Then, you'll ask yourself "why did anybody buy a Studebaker?"

    If you ever wonder why Stingray owners are so protective, the answer is: they aren't protecting a car, they are protecting their childhood.
    Chevy HHR - a PT Cruiser competitor from when nobody wanted anything close to a PT Cruiser.
    Volvo 780. Somewhat old-fashioned construction, dubious engine quality, boxy interior... an Imperial for those who didn't want an Imperial.
    The 408 is an answer to a surprisingly often-asked question - "can I have a 308 SW without a 3rd seat row or a D-pillar"?
    Lexus RX - a Mercedes ML that actually works.
    E36 - the official car of being pulled over by the cops for parking lot donuts.
    This generation was the last Audi bought by middle-of-the-road accountants with a fetish for 0% APR.

    Since then, Audis were the official cars of douchebags and douchebags with a slight sense of personal culture.

    and my brother's current truck (1976 f-250 highboy)
