There's no single symbol; there are far too may different kinds of douchebags. The gym nut who walks around the office shaking up his protein drink all day and talking constantly about his routine differs substantially from the runner with the 13.1 or 26.2 sticker in his window. Those close cousins differr substantially from the guy who shoehorns his political views into every conversation about every subject whatsoever.

One of the senior guys in our building has a license plate that reads theboss. You can't make that shite up.

Given how cheap credit has been for the last decade or so, I don't see have most cars that can be had in the $50-$65K range can even be seen as status symbols anymore. You can buy a $70K car on $45K in income if you want to. Enough people certainly stretch their budgets to buy cars.

Eh... I don't like scotch. Now cognac, I could lose myself to cognac.

Ultimate douchebag item... a FOX tattoo.

A jeep with chrome on it?

OP had a 60 year old bottle of 20 yr and started a thread bragging about it like it was some amazing old Scotch. He was trying to argue about bottle aging in a whiskey

An E63S does 0-60 in 3.5 sec and can be had for right at $100k.

Thats pretty fricking impressive to me.

My hood is filled with suburban dads in denial who think that buying a jeep and going to the hunting cabin makes them a "sportsman".
Southern-douche.

I can agree with this as well. The DBs that I listed are all the type who desperately want everyone around them to know something (or everything) about them.

yeah but there's only so many things you can use as an 'ultimate' status symbol.

it has to require an obscene amount of money, otherwise it wouldnt be the ultimate status symbol. i like the lambo with tiger stripes or cigarette bota suggested by the OP. another good one would be Dino Rizzo's house.

Also, this is completely anecdotal but, I've never seen a MVC pt die who was in a Mercedes. Not one.

On 31 August 1997 this score from Paris:

Pont de l'Alma Abutment 3
Mercedes Benz 1
Final

I'm just messing with you, I know MBs are wonderfully safe motorcars. I do think there's no arguing that they are sometimes bought by posers who could care less about their safety or performance abilities.

As odd as it is... I drank a bottle of Evan Williams from the 40s, it was absolutely delicious.

I saw a guy in a Lexus the other day with a license plate "PDNFULL"

He looked like chocolate pudding also
