Now......before some of you guys start beating me over the head for this, that does NOT mean that there are not some good, courteous drivers in these cars...there are. But those 5 vehicles, in my experience, carry the lion's share of aggressive drivers. About 50% of ALL aggressive driving I see is in V8 Mustangs....and many of the fatal teenage accidents as well.

Toyota Camry and Corolla drivers are the worst. Simply, because they seem to attract drivers who dont know how to drive. Its pathetic; I hate being around people who drive these cars because I always feel they are going to pull some stupid a$$ lane change or something unknowingly. I think it just has something to do with the types of drivers though. Im not being racists so Im not going to name any here but there are two I cant distinctly think of. Mine friends and I have talked about this and some to the same concensus. Stay away from Corollas and Camrys of all trims and years!

My votes:
1. VW Jetta or Passat

. Guy ended up flooring it anyway. Probably did like 90 on a 45 zone. Once a 328i tried to race me but I wouldn't. Surprisingly
a riced out early 90's Integra comes out of the blue & off they went.Funny how I don't see M3's & M5's trying to start up this type of stuff, but plenty of 328i's and 530i's.
Of course not everyone with those cars do these things. But I just had to vent.

Pretty close.....in my area the 3 and 5-series are second only to V8 Mustangs. But I've harped on Mustangs long enough. I'll shut up about that now.

This is hilarious. I actually do not find 3 series drivers being the worst or even an issue. Possibly because I am in my SC and they bow down to my presence. 
I really cannot categorize much out here in So Ca but I would agree with most others here that many (not all) in lifted Chevy trucks come across as very insecure and arrogant. Keep in mind that I own a mildly lifted Tundra. Those driving tiny annoyingly loud Civics are somthing else as well

Civics - especially the kids around here w/ si coupes (there are several) thinking their cold air intake is a blower or something. They come out of the blue and on several occasions have tried pass me on single-lane residential roads where my parents live. Apparently they think the subdivision access is a racetrack.
Next would be Maxi's ... for some reason the Maxima draws a particularly aggressive driver and in S.C. I usually find them modded w/ the clear tail lenses and some crappy body kit. The attached picture is a pretty good example of what I typically see stirring up trouble. The guy driving that piece was trying to race me on a 2 lane off ramp on 277 coming from Charlotte into Columbia.
He "won" ... - I was trying to stay as far back as possible so if one of those cheap-o wheels shattered on a pothole I wouldn't get nailed w/ the pieces.
