hooptie 

Hooptie finds it's origins dating back to the mid 1950's. The original, corrupted phrase is 'Coupe D', referring to a Cadillac Coupe deVille. Over time, Coupe D was rolled together into hooptie. Used to describe everything from "any old car" (thank Shaq for that) or more specifically a large domestic sedan. Popularized by Sir Mix-a-lot, the word moved from a mere description to a slur. Oddly enough, the word can have a variety of meanings, depending on the context, ranging from pride of ownership to an outright insult.

"Man, check out this new hooptie I picked up. $500 and the dash is still perfect!"

"Dammit! my (insert cool car here) is in the shop. Guess I'll mob the hooptie to work."

"Well, it might be a hooptie, but hey, it's got it's own class of demolition derby."

hoop-d, hoopdie, hoopdy, HOOPTIE, hoop-t, hoopty, hooptee, etc 

Today it can be any car or vehicle used as personal transportation. But it was originally used to refer to classic 70's or 80's era large American cars (impalas, new yorkers, towne cars and so on...), usually found in the ghetto and in poor condition, that has been "pimped out" with garish paint, animal print interiors, wheels too large or too small and so on. They are often roomy, comfortable worn-out gas-guzzlers.

Man that hooptie ride is bitchin.

The tail pipe fell off my hooptie.

hooptie bling 

Hooptie + Bling Refers to extraneous, unnecessary, typically obnoxious accessories that far exceed the value of the vehicle in cost. Hooptie bling would include but is not limited to: $4000 wheels on a 1980 Honda Civic; $2500 in dash DVD player in a '95 GEO Metro; multi screen car audio video entertainment center with, in playstation and DVD changer installed in a $215 Ford Escort whose owner also felt overwhelming inclined to place a set of $4500 24 inch spinners on as well even though it barely runs and has a cardboard window held in place with staples and duct tape. Do not confuse hooptie bling with a vehicle that has been riced, although similar in stupidity, these two cultural phenomenons typical clash, as their respective enthusiasts do not agree on much more than the insatiable desire to spend thousands of dollars on useless junk for hoopties that barely run.

T Spent 37 months of McDonalds pay checks on hooptie bling so he could get a hoochie!
