A person's tastes are an outward expression of their personality. Of course, a person's tastes are also better displayed if said person actually has some money. If you have $657.32 to spend on a car, you're going to settle for anything that runs, whereas if you're the latest multi-millionaire the only limitation you have on your automotive spending is your taste.
Because of this, we posit that your dream car is a very pure indicator of what your personality is. That's why we've discerned What Your Dream Car Says About You.
PS: Before you take to the comments with your seething rage, please consider that this whole article may be a smidge tongue-in-cheek, and it's not intended to be the definite guide to psychological diagnosis by automotive preference... unless it is.

RELATED: What Your Car Says About You
"A Cadillac"
You grew up listening to Snoop Dogg and Nate Dogg, and your current ringtone is "White Walls" by Macklemore.
Old School Muscle Car
You grew up somewhere in middle America and you use orange Gojo as your body wash.
Shelby GT500
You grew up in middle America and you can't stand grease on your hands.
Bugatti Veyron
You the kind of person who, when asked what bourbon you want at the bar, says "what ever is the best."
Baja Bug
You saw one of these at Stinson Beach in Marin County, CA as a kid and realized it was a badass version of a punch buggy.
Fiat 500
You're not really into cars, but you think this one is really cute.
Alternatively, you want an Abarth because it's just hilarious and way more fun than it has any right to be.
Ferrari F12berlinetta
You've wanted a prancing horse ever since you found out that those words don't refer to a Lipizzaner, and you know there's just something magical about a V12. That or you spend all of your time at work watching Chris Harris videos.
"The Ferrari with a V12"
You think fast cars are cool, but you've asked the question, "How much does the Ford Camaro GT500 cost?" before.
'32 Ford Coupe
You refer to yourself as a "grease-monkey" and listen to ZZ Top.
600 hp Honda Civic Del Sol
You researched exactly how much each part cost on every single car in the original The Fast and the Furious and checked every auto mechanic school to see if there were degrees in drifting.
Toyota Supra
You're a JDM fanatic who's not really all that into The Fast & The Furious.
Ford F-150 SVT Raptor
You like eating beef that you killed and seasoned on your own, and tattoos, and guns, and loud noises. You're not subtle, but you are a badass.
Classic Italian Supercar
Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance. That's your shit right there. Also, you wish you could be a race car driver, but not a modern day one; you want to be a '60s race car driver who wears tweed and drinks lots of whiskey.
Giant Luxury Sedan
You repeatedly have dreams that you're in an enormous throne, smoking a hand-rolled Cuban with a gorgeous woman off to the side holding your cane that doubles as a revolver. You have a deep-seated desire to tell underlings what to do.
Jaguar E-Type
You know a good mechanic, and you probably have an enormous selection of cuff links and pocket squares.
Lamborghini Aventador
You don't see the point of being rich unless you go completely balls-to-the-wall batshit nuts with your money. Which is why you also probably own the $7.5 million pure gold model of said Aventador.
Ford GT
Your desire for a crazy European supercar is tempered by your intense patriotism. You can't decide whether American flag pants are a disgrace or the greatest invention you've ever seen.
Citroen DS
You're a bit funky, you listen to lots of jazz on an immaculate gramophone, and you read I.D.
Porsche 911
You might not be the most creative, but nobody can fault your analysis. You've been making your favorite chocolate milk shakes since you were 10, becase, "It's just a classic!"
Land Rover Defender
You own a Jeep Wrangler, and you love it, but it doesn't have enough swagger for your taste. As a kid, you once tried pulling your tooth with a winch.
Chevrolet Corvete
You've been dreaming of owning a Corvette since you were setting up exact diecast model scenes of old races at age six. And this is most certainly not a mid-life crisis. It might just take you 50 years to afford it.
Nissan GT-R
You're not interested in anything but lap times. You also probably shop for groceries by looking at the unit price.
Tesla Model S
You want an environmentally friendly car but you're not willing to have a crappy car. You probably can taste the difference between different types of sparkling water.
Pagani Huayra
You're a sucker for small automakers, and you leave reruns of Top Gear on the television every morning as you get ready for work. Things like active aero and the size and type of brakes are extremely important to you.
Mercedes SLS AMG
You're either a sophisticated gentleman with a hankering for a supercar, or you just fucking love those doors.
