Chevy chevette, Yugo, Dodge Omni, etc...

Only a fool would play chicken against that pimped out caddy driving that econobox.

econobox 

A slang term for a small, boxy, fuel-efficient automobile with few luxuries.

Possibly the first econobox was the Austin Mini, first built in England in 1959.

Other well known economy cars like the Volkswagen Beetle, Fiat 500 and the Citroën 2CV are sometimes referred to as econoboxes, but do not have the requisite square shape of a true econobox.

Did you see that clunky, old Yugo? If that isn't an econobox, I don't know what is.

econobonics 

Meaningless gibberish about economics meant to make an ignorant writer sound authoritative.

...in the comments there was some minor quibbling and tut-tutting and a healthy-heapin’ handful of econobonics words like “predictive,” “multi-causal,” “independent predictor,” “differing methodologies,” and “intervening assumptions” ...
