"Bavarian Motor Works":
Pretentious German-built automobile popularized by yuppies in the early 1980s. Despite so-so build quality and inordinately expensive repair costs, newer models continue to be
popular among self-absorbed people, although Hummers are now giving them
stiff competition. Older models are finding a new popularity among posers and can often be found these days on blocks in front of mobile homes and in Walmart parking lots.
