Subject: What kind of cars do you consider "old people" cars?

Written By: 90s Guy on 09/24/18 at 9:14 am

What are certain makes/models of vehicles do you consider old people cars? I ask because I was reading a description of a character and how they drove an "old lady car." So what are some cars that for whatever reason, you automatically associate with an old person?

For example, when I was a kid, both my grandpa (dad's dad) and my mom's stepdad drove the same exact car, except in different colors:

One drove a white, the other drove a light blue like the one pictured. Both as a result I've always seen that particular kind of car as an older person's vehicle.
