Imported cars (favorites being: Audi, BMW, VW, Mercedes) are a statement reserved for the wealthy. I see them often, but they still do stand out.
SUVs have become more popular in this country. There are still far more cars than SUVs, and I’ve rarely seen a pickup truck.
Apparently, around here you want to get rid of a car like this (see below) ASAP. The bigger the car, the better symbol of status.
Sorry little guy … I’d drive you. :o)
Am I just reading too much into it, or does S. Korea very much put a premium on status/standing/appearances? With so much being so visible in the "confines" of a crowded city, certain realities just stand out, don't they? Tell me if I'm wrong...I can take it...
