What's "cool" to drive where you live?

Honda Civics and VW's are the choice of cars around here that the "younger generations" decide to horribly "modify." What about where you live?

Hehe....that's a great question. Being in the army for the past 14 years i've seen a lot of trends in cars but the by far the biggest is this.....

....It's the first time many of these kids have a steady guaranteed income. And like many before them these young soldiers will live in a carboard box and eat cheese Whiz from the jar just to be able to drive the top model of whatever kind of car they can get their hands on.

i've seen everything from full blown loaded Ford F 150 Raptors to Porshe Boxters

If I had to pick just one i'd say the Honda Civic SI is probably the most popular new car here.

Funny topic, thanks for making me laugh!

I see a lot of overly modded 350Z/G35/370Z/G37s around here. The occasional older Civic, but they're not incredibly common.

I live in a pretty average area, I'd say the average money someone spends on a car around here is anywhere between $2,000-$10,000

Around my parts (Guam), there are tons and tons of TRUCKS.
Civics and Integras are a close second. Some are decent and really clean but others might as well be serving sushi with all that rice they have.

A lot of drugstore cowboys in Arizona. We seem to have a larger than average percentage of pick-ups.

Lots of foxbody/sn95/new edge mustangs.

Also lots of beat hondas. The ones that have a body kit that was painted 7 years ago and blow blue smoke that leaves fouling all over the rear bumper.
