Owners of high-status cars are more likely to be a55holes
Discussion
Some research out of Finland suggests that "self-centred men who are argumentative, stubborn, disagreeable and unempathetic are much more likely to own a high-status car such as an Audi, BMW or Mercedes."
Or are you just relatively wealthy and appreciate quality?

Selective quoting and headlining; also says:
"One of the more unexpected results was that another personality type is also drawn to high-status cars: the conscientious. People with this type of personality are, as a rule, respectable, ambitious, reliable and well-organised. They take care of themselves and their health and often perform well at work."

Phew, that’s more like it."One of the more unexpected results was that another personality type is also drawn to high-status cars: the conscientious.

One of the cars I drive is German. I'd only say I'm guilty of stubbornness, from that list, but then I guess my own evaluation of myself might be a little skewed!
Today I've demonstrated good, courteous road manners, allowing lanes to merge without trying to block anyone, giving priority to others but also chuntering to myself at every slow f
king that needs to get fully in the filter lane and right out of my fking way.

Only read the article, not the study, so the usual disclaimer that entails...
But it seems that they came to the conclusion that different types of people can and do drive the same marques.
Social psychology had some good theories in its heyday, yet IMO now the field should stick to testing theories of behavioural psychology, which it tends to be quite good at.
