The co-worker in my opinion felt they had a Scarlett Letter attached to them for buying not only a new car but an import model.
I remember back in the day it was a bad thing to do this if you worked at Mack Trucks or Bethlehem Steel here where I live. Import cars were a no no to the Union folks. I had no idea it was the same today. Why be scared to let people know you had a new ride? This seems odd to me. Whenever I get something new, I am sure to let people know about it just because.
