I'm probably going to catch flack for this but I think it's Nissan drivers. My circle of car friends have discussed this to a length and the final conclusion is that Nissan drivers are the ones that just don't give a hoot.

Around where I live the Maxima/Altima owners are the people who will cut you off, almost causing an accident, so they can save a few seconds on their commute. I'd say at least 30-40% of the time I get cut off, it's by a Nissan.

When I first saw a version of this commercial I said that this gentleman looks like a Nissan driver. Then they played a clip of him "smoking" in his car and low and behold...

BMW M3's...hands down. It's a great car, but it attracts all of the douchebag drivers.

Do we know what the focal length was of the camera lens? How do you know he wasn't close?

Oh man, I actually can't believe I haven't seen this yet.

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.
