Reference Car Edit Meaning

1.

A car that could be used as an example of being ill conceived, poorly engineered, horribly modified or pitifully maintained. Often the manufacturer spent much more time and money trying making it look good, rather than making it reliable, and loaded it down with worthless convenience and luxury features so that people of low self esteem would buy it to try and impress their clueless neighbors and friends.

Hey man!I looked up piece of shit and there was a picture of your Cadillac! You have a reference car!
