Ok so today the El Paso Hooters sent me a banner for the car show next month, since they know I'm always down there participating in stuff like that. I found the banner to be slightly incorrect from my way of thinking, so I wrote them back. The conversation is below from myspace. read from the bottom up, and let me know if I'm entirely wrong or if I make sense.

What?????? If that is a local slang you use that's ok but don't say it includes it cause it don't. Search google or any search engine, pick up any sport compact magazine, it will tell you that Euro, Eurocars, or Euro cars are cars from Europe. To be specific it's an import car from Europe so it falls under the category of IMPORTS no the other way around. As for your VIP term I didn't say anything about VIP but yes you are right BMW's and Mercedes would fall in the VIP section because of their class, but where are they manufactured? Europe. So they can fall under either the VIP or Euro section. So to make a long story short, IMPORTS includes Euros, and VIPS.

Way back when we used to still park at Toys-R-Us, the definition of Euros evolved. People who did not have mini trucks or low riders were considered Euros....Hondas, VWs, Mazdas, Toyotas..etc. Now if you want to get specific, the term VIP is used for "high end" vehicles at some shows. VIPs usually include BMW, Mercedes, Lexus and so forth. So to make a long story short, Euros includes Imports, VIPs, and European

Clarification needed. The flyer says classics, euro's, bikes, and lowriders, what about imports? Euros are just one type of imports from Europe hence why they are called euros, what about the rest of us?
