"BMW, Porsches
Those who are adventure seekers (even if they never get out of the car) drive sports cars. They?re not calm and are more likely than average to have a college degree. Surprisingly, based on the cost of most sports cars, they were more likely to have lower incomes.
Some of these may fall into the category of ?emulator? ? younger, financially unstable, low self-esteem people who buy flashy cars that aren?t true sports or luxury cars to try to emulate achievers."
. Bye guys I need to go cut myself because I have low self esteem and just bought a flashy car.

i don't think you read the article right...i think it's saying an emulator doesn't buy a real sport's or luxury car. and i think we all agree bmw is a luxury car. we are the "achievers" and the "emulators" try and copy us with cheaper cars--they are the ones with lower self-esteem, etc. sounds like they are referring to ricers IMO.
though that is a pretty stereotypical stance of course

I don't know... you have to really read into the article to come away thinking the BMW and Porche owners are emulators. Yeah because every M5 and GT3 owner I know is a h8ter and works the McDonalds register.

Well just the maintenance on our cars should steer most low income people away from purchasing one; as its not financially responsible -- it also sounds like the articles author is bitter.
