A pejorative used to refer to an entry level sports car that is just cheap enough for the person you're insulting to afford, but not quite cheap enough for you to afford.

A metrosexual car, usually a soft top, also driven by men going through a midlife crisis or compensating for something. A navy Mercedes SLK is a brilliant example

A small 'sports car' (I use the term sports car loosely), featuring an underpowered engine. Predominantly owned by girls & 'metro' boys. Has more show than go. examples include: celica, mx-5, s2000. occupants of these vehicles invariably buy them because they are "stylish" not because of any performance or convenience factors. Often garners the argument "i'd beat you in corners" or "its not a hairdressers car! its a sports car!" the st205 celica was nominated hairdressers choice in 1996.
David: Hey Tomath, did you hear frederick got hith hairdretherth lithenth finally? He'th going to buy that thelica he'th had hith eye on.
Tomas: really? how fabulous! its such a hairdressers car he'll be thrilled!

A term used by insecure men who have to drive big ol' hulkin' gas guzzlin' V8 carrying ass hauling 300 horsepower testosterone infused macho mobile. while they're unhappy that a man is perfectly happy driving a soft top convertible with a 4-banger producing a whopping 80 horsepower they're perfectly happy with. A hairdresser car is usually an entry level sports car/coupe, most times a soft top roadster with not very boxy features, most times a more compact car. Examples of such are the Mazda miata/mx5, Audi TT, Bmw Z4, Or an older Porshe Boxter. Driving in such a car shouldn't be considered shameful, since it requires enormous balls.
Why do you drive a Hairdresser car? i'd never wanna be seen in one.
Because i'm not insecure about my own masculinity Greg.
