The other day I was so bored, I went to the Audi showroom to check out the Audi A4’s. After viewing the car and had the opportunity to test-drive the A4 2.0 FSI, I can safely conclude that I drooled a whole bucket and luckily I didn’t spoil the car seat, or else I will have to fork out RM 278,966 (that’s the one-the-road price).
Of course I was daydreaming about purchasing the car, and something strike me as odd. I realized that actually a car is telling a lot about a person, be it due to branding of the car company or whatsoever, but generally speaking, those luxury cars do tell a lot and a lot…
For example…
Mercedes-Benz represents success. It’s like after spending years and years working very hard, the businessman finally succeeded and made it big.
Audi represents distinguish. It’s not about success, but about a person thinking differently, very gentlemen kind of way.
Jaguar represents conservative but rich family. It looks like those people who are more conservative will like Jaguar more, and of course with strong family heritage kind of shit.
Volvo speaks for good employee. Somehow Volvo conveys the image of being a good employee in some big ass blue chip company, and made it big by climbing the corporate ladder, and awarded a Volvo as the company car. Another reason why companies like to give out Volvo is because it is the cheapest among all the big name car companies.
Now comes to Bavaria Motor Works, or BMW. BMW speaks for someone-else-is-rich. Example? A kid with rich father will drive a BMW 3 Series. Or rather, it is widely known as a Mistress Car. Normally the mistress will be awarded a BMW, while the wife will be awarded a Mercedes.
That’s about it.
NOTE: No, I am not going to buy the Audi. My ride is more distinguish than an Audi. I take bus.
