These Are the Cars You'd Take to Your High School Reunion

This depends entirely on who you are, how shallow you are, and what you want to signal with your car. A few options:

If you view your car is a status symbol and want to show up your classmates, pick any mid-engine exotic supercar (Lamborghini, McLaren, Ferrari, or C8 Corvette). It doesn’t matter, you’re just showing off. Bonus points if you wear attire with the manufacturer’s name/logo on it so everybody knows that you’re the Ferrari guy when you’re not actively being seen in or near your exotic.

If you view your car as a status symbol and want to show up your classmates, but want to appear slightly less flashy, go with a 911 or Aston Martin.

If you view your car is a status symbol and you want to seem practical while showing up your classmates, go for a luxo-german-barge (S-class Benz, 7-series, Audi A8/S8, or a Bentley if you really need to rub it in). Also acceptable in this class is an ultra-high-end SUV (Aston, Bentley, etc).

If you view your car as a status symbol, want to show up your class mates, and you’re a techno-nerd consider going higher-end electric (Tesla Model S Plaid, Lucid, Taycan, etc).

If you view your car as a status symbol and you’re a bro, then there’s no substitute for a bro truck. Anything less than a 3/4 ton truck is unacceptable – you won’t look wealthy enough in a half ton truck. Having a dualie helps. If you’re under 40, you’ll need at least $20k in mods to lift it and have low profile tires that extend beyond the body to let everyone know that your $100k+ work truck is not usable for anything resembling any kind of work.

If you’re going to the reunion to show off your large family, a practical full sized SUV is ideal (Suburban, etc).

If you want to show off your family but also want to show off your disposable income, a higher end full size SUV will work (Wagoneer, Navigator, Escalade, LS 470, Range Rover etc).

If you’re Martin Blank and are a professional killer, there is no substitute for a rented 1997 Lincoln Town Car.

If you don’t live in the same town and don’t need to show off, fly in and take an Uber or get a crappy rental like the rest of us.

There, everybody’s covered.
