In general if you buy a new car and it's yellow then I know that you are a narcissist. I have found that this general rule of thumb holds true about 90% of the time. If said car is used the rule does not seem to apply.

In Portland there are more then a few "art cars." These are cars with murals, thousands of glass beads, hundreds of stickers or action figures glued on to the surface. There is a tower of evil skulls about 4ft or so high on the roof of a particular Volvo, that is maybe the wildest car I see. Art cars make lime green paint seem tame.
