2nd. Not all Germans care about cars. It's true.
My grandfather was a prime example. Exceedingly wealthy and successful in business, but didn't own a car.
My aunt and uncle are the same way.

My step dad was 100% Austrian along with his family and he was really into Mitsu's and Toyota/Lexus
like I am into VAG cars.
True story on the topic of plates. Saw grand marquis this morning with plate holder that said "warning Norwegian driver" he was probably in his 70's too =)

Yeah ,its just the irony of it all. I'm european mixed breed.
French,Irish,Scot,German and English . I could plaster the back of my car with 5 different "I'm proud" things. They also had two German Flag decals etc. Just thought its funny so much German Nationalism but driving Korean thats all. Hey maybe I could put the 5 flag decals on my car and post a picture on AWOT... or , maybe not. I was following a VW with all sorts of german flags and stuff on it a few months ago ,passed it and it was an Asian girl driving.Caught me off guard ,wasn't what I suspected to be behind the window tint. Amazing what we think is the norm ,but stereotypes don't always fit. Being originally from NC ,I'm expected to be into Nascar ,Rebel flags,Fried Chicken,Bud , Country music ,etc...far from it ,always liked euro cars ,F1,rally,gourmet food,wine and good beer ,etc.
