Any enthusiast car that is only driven the speed limit or under, like this RS6 wagon in my neighborhood the owner won’t drive over 5 under the limit.

Are you saying a car you’d expect to see someone driving with their collar popped of their polo, or wearing knockoff Gucci glasses?
Kia K5, Telluride, any AMG Line, Wrangler/Bronco/Gladiator, any big SUV/Truck (Escalade/Tahoe/Yukon, all full size pickups), most VW’s.

Did u just name all the SUVs? Except maybe honda and toyota
vtmass@reddit (OP)
Actual preppy
nvielbig@reddit
That doesn’t clarify it for me.

Go on google maps, go to street view at parking lots near major private universities with high bars for free tuition (SMU, Baylor, TCU, etc.), and look at what’s parked at them.
Spoiler alert: It’s about 70% BMWs, Jeeps, Mercedes, Audis, Teslas, VWs, Lincolns, Ford Broncos, Minis, Volvos, Land Rovers, and Toyota/Lexus SUVs.
For specific models, Mini Cooper, Jeep Wrangler, Jeep Grand Cherokee, Ford Bronco, BMW X1, BMW X3, Merc GLC 300, and RX350.

You say preppy, I think late 1980’s pop collar and sweaters tied around the shoulders. Thats going to be a “ What is a convertible BMW”. Other convertibles may apply, as well as jeeps.
wespellettieri@reddit
Most preppys' turned into guidos or queers around 1989, so question is not valid.
vtmass@reddit (OP)
There are still plenty around the New England coast

If by "preppy" you mean pretentious virtue signaling devices the any/all pure EV's
upsidedown-funnel@reddit
That’s an incredibly misguided statement. EV’s are practical and affordable, especially now. If you can swing the charging, you’re being blindly ignorant to the options.
Cold_Specialist_3656@reddit
Not these days. There's a bunch of economy cars like Rav4 Prime and Equinox. You just don't notice that they're EVs cuz they look "normal"
vtmass@reddit (OP)
I would say preppy isn’t inherently pretentious
Knicks7979@reddit
well then maybe you can elaborate because no one knows what the hell you are talking about brother.
nvielbig@reddit
You know, preppy. Does that help?
Knicks7979@reddit
lol…room temperature IQ, type shit.
Goff1976@reddit
Porsche & BMW
epiclettuce_@reddit
Bronco, Range Rover, G-Wagon, Wrangler
Pretty much anything that fits into the “hardcore off-road capable vehicle that mostly gets used for grocery pickup at Costco” category
ForeskinForeman@reddit
I will never forgive Hollywood types for ruining the Bronco. They used to be affordable.
keithrc@reddit
You mean like O.J.?

Real ones have a defender instead
upsidedown-funnel@reddit
The Defender is a beautiful vehicle. I’m a huge fan. The Jeep tracks. My sister was 100% the pop up collar “preppy” popular kid in school, and she has a Jeep.
iHaveLotsofCats94@reddit
Every defender I've seen has fit the exact same demographic, just with more money
iHaveLotsofCats94@reddit
Add white full size SUVs. Bonus points if it's a high trim like an Expedition Max Limited/Platinum or a Denali of some sort
ExcellentWinner7542@reddit
Escalade
boatsnhosee@reddit
A GX or a 4 runner.
BigConscience728@reddit
4 runner
ExtensionDull@reddit
Most Hondas
covfefenation@reddit

FlyingWhale44@reddit
Anything expensive that is cheap used.

Autobacs-NSX@reddit
GTi / Golf R
Hukthak@reddit
Large 4 seat luxury convertible.
Pimp_Daddy_Patty@reddit
I feel like certain Lexus models would fit this. Maybe Infiniti at some point in the past.
