Vanity Fair Intelligence Report - Feb 2011 Edition
heads up RX-8 owners.....

@ Page 90 -- "Ethno-Spoliation Groups" Article

In this article, Guidos are compared with Chavs, Vlads, Sammis and Massholes in various categories, including spiritual home, standard-bearers, aspirational ideal, wheels, signature facial expression, catchphrase, tribal markings (male), tribal markings (female), status symbol, pickup line, intellectual chronicler of folkways, and mortal enemy.


Sooo....what are the wheels of choice for "Guidos"?

"Mazda RX-8 with Bilstein shocks"

The other wheels of choice:
Chavs (Brits): "Loaded Nova with custom exhaust and branding removed"
Vlads (Russians): "Snorkel-nosed Escalade by Christian Andigier"
Sammis (Persians): "Taxi-yellow Bentley Azure T"
Massholes (Irish): "87 rear-wheel drive Grand Prix"

When you get to the final level of the new Mario Bros. game, Mario & Luigi totally make a "Guido sammich" out of the princess.
