Any car I'm not driving. Even if it's the same car.

Integras. Every year, every model. Every single one of them rev their engines wherever they go, peel out, or if they are turbo'd they just rev their engine to hear their BOV (although to be fair, a lot of turbo owners do this). From my experiences they want to race the most too. Idiots.

I should say I don't think of cars as douchebag cars, but I see certain cars and expect them to drive like morons. When they don't, it's a nice surprise.
I saw an Integra Type-R on the freeway the other day with red badges and all, doing a calm 55 with me and a pickup in the slow lane. I laughed and smiled because I knew he probably had the same idea as me; Keeping the revs below 3000 to protect hearing.

Any convertible not originally designed as one (more weight and less performance just so you can pose)

There are cars that douchbag drivers tend to flock towards.

i feel a thread of this nature has just as many douches per thread as any model does per car. there are a lot of douche driver cars. i think that any time a cars price bracket drops as the car ages you will find douches flock to it. there are douches that buy the frs and insist on talking down on cars that are faster and cheaper. that is stupid. there are also people buying one of the other many cars and talking down on the frs despite that, imo, it is the best affordable car to come out since the original miata.

I think it's also the definition of the phrase "douchebag driver" or "douchebag car". I hear that and think, someone who drives like an moron/idiot/a-hole...whatever you wanna call it. Not someone who is a douchebag, because I work with plenty of really nice, really cool people, and I can't tell you how many of them are douchebag drivers. They don't use their signal, weave through traffic, tailgate, you name it. One of my best friends is the worst tailgater I have ever driven with, but i'm not going to stop being his friend because of this. He's a shitty driver, doesn't mean he's a shitty person.

The cars aren't the problem, our country's pathetic excuse for driver training is the problem. Douchebags aren't contained by any particular car or cars, they are everywhere, driving everything. People's general lack of skill and disregard for others' need to get places in a timely and safe manner is what makes them douchebags, all of them.

What makes the people drive the way they do is their own lack of care for others and general ego-centric personalities. A prevalent situation in our wonderful society. You can have all the driving skills in the world and still act like an asswipe on the road.
