What's The Quintessential Boomer Car?

Picture it; you were born between 1946 and 1964. You’ve pretty easily sailed through life, though your damn kids are disappointments and your wife is a nag. You express you political views via Facebook memes and your New Balances are only outshined by your belief in trickle down economics.

That’s right, today, I’m asking you to think like a Boomer.

I’ll get the obvious one out of the way; C5 or C6 Corvette convertible with chrome wheels and an automatic. It don’t get much more boomer than that. But there are so many other options out there. For one, a particularly midwestern boomer vehicle is the Chevy HHR. There’s something so unashamedly dorky about it. It’s a car ready to chase you off its lawn:

If you are a boomer, feel free to curse my stereotyping of your entire generation while providing a much cooler example of the car that defines your generation. Maybe I’m blind to the awesomeness of your cohort (being up to your freakin’ eyeballs in student debt will do that to you.)
