Judging someone based on the car they drive is really really ignorant.
For one, it's a really ignorant way to determine how much money a person makes.
I know a lot of doctors who make 250K + who drive Toyota Corollas, Honda Civics/ Accords, etc. Why? Just because a person makes a lot of money it doesn't mean they're worried about what others think of them. Many people who can afford 100K+ cars don't spend much of their money on automobiles.
On the other side of the coin there is no shortage of people whom drive cars they really can't afford, can only afford because mommy/ daddy paid 1/2, bought the car used, can barely afford despite having very little in other expenses and so on.
So yeah only extremely naive/ ignorant people judge a persona income based on what car they happen to drive. But I suppose if you're talking strictly based on the type of automobile (coupe, sedan, truck, van, convertible, etc) you might be able to assume but assumptions are often 100% wrong.
I never assume ANYTHING based solely on the car a person drives and neither do most adults I would assume unless they're extremely naive and or ignorant.
I buy cars based on what "I" prefer NOT on how I think others will perceive me. Because one, that's a terrible way to decide on a car. Two, people who judge you based on your car are morons anyway.
