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.

hoop-dee

A ramshackle car. Or, in other words, an old dilapidated vehicle in severe disrepair. A hoop-dee is probably unsafe for most of the general population to drive/ride around in, especially children, those who are pregnant, the disabled and elderly.

Didya see the hoop-dee that he bought off Craig's list? It's kinda rough. I really hope he doesn't drive his pregnant girlfriend around in that.
