This is true although I believe the cost of the Mercedes and BMW models I see them driving in can be the same or more.

Someone had mentioned that they have seen the newer four door Chargers being driven fast and aggressive and I have seen this quite a bit as well. I have also seen the Chrysler 300 being driven in this manner. The 300 must have not been a very good car. I remember seeing a lot of them on the road for a few years and now I hardly see them at all.

Hummer is going out of business...you could get a deal on this one, already fitted with the cow catcher. Please excuse the gratuitous female car show model...it was only part of my reason for posting...

Shouldn't she be in a camo bikini with an AK-47 slung suggestively across her body?

Ladies in Lexus SUVS who drive slow in the left lane while multiple cars pass on the right while she refuses to move. I'm sure these are the same ones who complain that people always cut them off.

Actually the Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger, Dodge Magnum and Dodge Challenger are essentially the same car with different skins. All built on the LX platform.
