Analysis:
So they say your car describes your personality. Unfortunatly I'm not a shrink so I have no idea what we have proven. I think the firts thing is that nobody has delusions of grandeur as none of us voted for the super expensive cars. Given that there were no votes for the super sporty cars I guess that also means that all the men amongst us have at least three inches, although the fact that the majority of the votes went for the Nissan Skyline, probably not much more than three inches as we're obviously compensating for something here.
I guess the skyline is an incredible performance car, but somewhat of a wolf in sheep skin clothing as it isn't designed to stand out like a Ferrari or Porsche. Maybe we're all modest but think we've got something hidden. Kind of a “bring it on” attitude.
One thing I did find that was funny was a website somewhere or other that was taling about this subject. I only scanned it, but the one car that stood out was the Mazda Miata/MX5 that declared its owners “had no fear of decapitation by an 18 wheeler.” Althought this wasn't in the selection, I don't think it would have gotten any votes. There were a couple of votes for the Lexus SUV and a couple of votes floating round for the Honda Civic (why would that be your dream car?) and the VW Beetle (which I suppose does have some charm if you're into that kind of thing).
