You all are so perceptive - I just thought this was sort of interesting (but kind of like my philosophy of astrology - as accurate as you make it) question for the weekend.

Since I live with a "gearhead" car guy (yes, TopGear UK and US constantly) and budding driver, and we do go to car shows and swap meets quite often, it is something I have thought about.

Thanks for answering

Well I guess I look like a MOTG and my car does too - a Ford Falcon with a very long description of its colour = silver satin ice mint veil. It was a present from my father when we moved out of the city and when he knew he had little time left until his death.

I drive a 1991 Infiniti M30. I purchased it originally, then sold it to my parents in 1995 when I moved to Hong Kong. Two years ago they gave it back to me, as my 1998 Honda Accord gave out. It is still really fast but it has no heat and the body is damaged. The a/c works only sporadically, but it gets me around and always starts.

I don't feel this car reflects my style. However, it has been paid off since 1994!

Hmm, my car is a 2011 Toyota Prius -- a bit more practical than my style, I think. I tend to be practical above all else when it comes to cars, and until I married, I would buy a car and drive it until it was nearly dead before giving it up. My husband likes to trade in every couple of years, now that we can afford to do that.

Here is his next car: http://www.teslamotors.com/models/gallery#8 He asked if I want to give up the Prius and drive the new Tesla instead (all electric, but with sports car performance), and I'm tempted, but my photography travels take me into some areas where I prefer to be lower-profile!

This is my Ducati Monster. She fits my urban side but is definitely sexier than I am. She is loud and flashy and always turns heads. The Triumph Bonneville brings out a little more of my rocker edge.

When I want to be more stealth I have a black Jetta. They are so common here that there was even a song out a few years ago, "Ex-girlfriends, Black Jettas" At least its a turbo and a manual transmission! Wide open throttle in second gear is why I bought the car.

So, yes they all fit aspects of my personality.

Gosh, we are a family who are completely uninterested in cars, and think of them only as convenient! I heard a radio talk show host refer to my make and model of car (Vauxhall Astra) as a 'toilet paper salesman's car'. It made me laugh - I bought my car because it was a good price and is reliable, and fits in teenage boys and their paraphanelia - I am sure people do judge me on it, and I think of it as their loss - I am far more than my car! I dress the way I dress for totally my own reasons, and I don't think my car actually comes into it.

My husband drives a Lexus - when I drive it, I wonder if people think of me differently?

This is so funny! I'm sure my style is much better than my transportation. I drive a 1999 Honda Accord that has almost 100k miles on it. My teenagers drove it for a while, so it's not in the best shape. My DH drives a 2011 Mustang and wants to buy a vintage auto (not sure what kind) in the near future. When he gets a new car, I'll start driving the Mustang and we'll get rid of the Honda. Still, the Honda reliably gets me from Point A to Point B, has great gas mileage, and is easy to drive and park. It's so old that I don't worry about getting some dings on it. I haven't yet driven my DH's Mustang because it doesn't yet have a scratch on it. He babies it like you wouldn't believe, and keeps it impeccably clean.

I'm driving a 2010 Honda Jazz. I love driving it more than our Mitsubishi Montero which I call my "truck". Since the jazz is just a small car it's so easy to find a slot in the parking area.

DH and I share a silver 2004 Honda Accord that our mechanic/neighbor found for us last year. Before that I drove an 18 yr-old, beat up, handed down, green Nissan Quest minivan that my mother gave me when the A/C started acting up. To some people the Accord might be *safe* or *boring*, but to us, it's definitely a step up and we love it!

Yes I need to match my style and my transportation. I go to work in a scooter and that is black and silver mix, just perfect for my black, blue boring work wear. If I would ride a yellow or green or tangerine colored scooter with my workwear, that would make my credibility with the clients less. So with compulsion I have to match my style and my transportation.
On days I am not riding scooter, or wearing heels, dressier jeans, I don't like taking public transport since public transports in our country is a real mess. I take cabs.
So yay I do match them!!!!!!

Our new minivan totally represents my style--fashionista MOTG!

It's a purplish red called "dark cherry pearl" and it matches my favorite Aquatalia Vavoom chianti boots...which I wore when we went to go pick it up from the dealer! I love matching my car!

Those boots and that car is so lovely goldenpig.........and yes so matchy!!!

Oh, absolutely! In my car owning lifetime I've always been much happier driving a car that matched my style rather than one that just "made do". My daily driver is a blue Mini Cooper. I also have a late 80s Corvette that doesn't get much use anymore, but it my "fun car".

Good grief, I hope my style doesn't match my modes of transportation. My car is a beat up, very old Toyota. I spend more time on the Metro bus system though. Either way, I hope I don't look like I "belong" to those vehicles.

I'd like to be paired with something like the car below
