Are you proud of your parents chioice of vehicles? I am.
Mom, 70, drives a '10 MINI Cooper Clubman S. She's flogged an E30 M3 at Road America at an HPDE, as well.
Pop, 72, drives an '05 Dodge Magnum R/T. He's done a few laps at Blackhawk Farms in a MINI Cooper S, a few years ago.
Mom has a 3.0 Outback, which on public roads is way faster than it has any right to be.
Dad drives any number of 4x4 vehicles, depending on his needs at the moment. Usually in his worktruck, which is a F350 7.3 Powerstroke (which he actually uses, unlike most people I see in diesel pickups), elsewise in his built-from-the-ground-up-with-junkyard-parts Willy's Jeep, or a 2nd-gen Bronco.
So, nothing super exciting, but they're not in total beigemobiles, so I don't complain.
Mom drives a Mazda Tribute. Dad drives an F150.
I has a sad...
70 Chevelle SS 396 and a Toyota Highlander
Dad, 71, 2010 Infiniti G37 sedan 6 speed manual ,Mitsubishi MU-2
Mom,63, 2005? Ford Explorer
My 80 year old parents just got rid of the A6, leaky sunroof filled the car with water. They bought a Corolla.
Wife's 82 y/o Mom drives a Taurtus.
They have a Miata that is mostly used for long road trips with the top down. And a Subaru Legacy on Hakkapellittas. They do live in Canada, you see...
Mom, 53, has an '07 V6 Accord. Day and night compared to the Taurus ir replaced
Dad, also 53, an '05 4x4 Dakota, 4.7 The ergonomics are HORRID, but off roading is fun.
'00 Town Car and a '10 Accord.
I should probably add that Mom has somehow managed to NOT get speeding a ticket on several occassions, only warnings. "Slow down, ma'am."
My In-Laws, however, are somewhat beigemobilers - especially how they drive. MIL has an '03? Mits Galant and FIL has a '98 Chevy Tahoe.

Clogged sunroof drains, too bad... could have been fixed with a pair of side cutters and a coat hanger.
Dad- 10 GMC 2500hd
Mom- 09 Subaru legacy wagon
mercedes e-class w211, jeep zj and wk. In their 70s - still waiting for this car thing to pass in me - although dad does like the 911 I keep at the Florida house.
Mom drove VW's for years, but bought a Ford Escape this time, and is very happy with it.
My dad drives whatever beater that tickles his fancy, sub $500, and drives it til it dies. He's 69, been retired (ex mechanic) for 20 years, and has a fixed income, but lot's of time.
My mom's got a license but hasn't driven a car since the 80s. Fortunately she lives in a little village in Switzerland with good public transport. But even in her sixties she still likes riding pillion on a motorcycle.
Haven't seen or talked to my stepdad in 16-17 years but I'd guess he's still driving some sort of Volvo station wagon. He's predictable like that, much like my dad is most likely still driving a Land Rover so he can pull a sailboat around and probably has a sports car squirrelled away somewhere...
Dad, 04 Dodge diesel and a Mercedes 320 SL
Mom a Ford Freestyle.
My mom doesn't drive... my dad's (deceased) last car was a 79 Camaro, (he used to race MGs in Britain).
Dad isn't allowed to drive anymore for medical reasons.
Mom drives a Chevy 2500 4x4 work truck and wants a Corvette. Her first car was a 65 GTO, dads was a 55 chevy.
My mother has had a slew of sweet cars
64 Mustang, 70 Nova SS w/ side pipes and rally wheels, 340 duster, Fiat X1/9. Current ride is a Honda CRV. My father is no longer able to drive, but he used to drag Mopars back in the 60s. His last DD was a base model F150 5 speed which I now have
my dad's last car (died in 94) was a 1980 dodge commercial van
my mom's car is an 05 infiniti Q45
Dad,83, drives a Suzuki stationwagon of some sort,and Mom,81, drives a Olds Cutlass Ciera Brougham from the early 90's. She really,really likes the velour ! Dad doesn't drive after dark and his Suzuki is a 5 speed that ,I swear he has never revved over 3000.
Miata and an F150.
The inlaws have a Camry, Land Rover, and a 30 Chevy.
Dad has an early 90's E150.
Mom has an early 90's Grand Marquis.
Both very lame vehicles. I hope when I am their age I am not driving such lamemobiles.
Mom, 51, drives a 4Runner. She misses her Outback though, and I think wouldn't mind another Roadmaster.
Dad, 57, drives a 95 525i automatic. He's been considering a V6 Mustang convertible automatic with the GT suspension package. Of course, he has two kids who live at home (in the summer at least). Between the two of us we have a 91 BMW 318ic, 99 Miata 10AE, and a SAAB 9-5 stick shift. We kinda stole those from dad
or convinced him that we needed another car. He helps us out. He will take them whenever he fancies a more sporting ride or knows that there won't be a lot of stop and go.
Dad gave all of us the bug. In his time, he's had an MGB, Opel GT, Toyota Celica, Austin Healey, 68 Firebird, 87 T-Bird... He's definitely an enthusiast, just a guy with a bad back and knees with a stop and go commute. He's happy with his E34 for now, and it is exactly what he needs and wants even if it isn't that exciting. And he'll come out to a few autocrosses with me a year. I'm currently trying to convince him that he's tackled USA, Britain, Germany, Sweden, and Japan: Italy is the obvious next step
Oh, the inlaws. Let's see, a Dodge 3500, a Ford F350, a Pontiac Torrent (shudder) and there's a C4 Vette sitting in the garage gathering dust. The big trucks work for a living, too. In fact, when all the family trucks get together, my Dodge 2500 diesel quad cab is the smallest one there - but it has the biggest engine
