Men "Cars"
From fiery Ferraris to hulking Hummers, the cars driven predominantly by men all have a showy streak and plenty of power under the hood.
“So many of these cars are prototypical ‘guy cars’ — it’s kind of funny,” says Imre Molnar, dean of the College for Creative Studies in Detroit, Mich., where he oversees one of the world’s largest transportation design programs. Putting it politely, he calls vehicles on the list bold and assertive. “But with some of these cars, you can’t help but see cliché qualities coming to the fore,” Molnar says. “They affirm the aggressive male stereotype.”
Buying a car, whether it's a first-time purchase or not, can seem like a daunting task. You've probably seen your share of car commercials on TV and recall hearing phrases like "down payment" and "APR." Although some of the terminology may seem confusing, once you break it down, buying a car is pretty straightforward. There is certainly a lot of information you need to understand before you run off to your local dealership. But once you know what the acronyms mean and how car financing works, you'll be ready to get the best possible price on the car you've chosen.
