I actually find that nicer more expensive cars will give me the right of way even when i am not even close enough to deserve it yet. the exception to the rule is nice SUV's will usually run you off the road because 99% of the time the driver is on the phone and doesn't know your there.
I have had young men driving beaters laying on the horn and shouting, but also women driving Priuses.
I don't get too much trouble from cars, but VW Jettas seem to have particularly aggressive drivers.

I also have noticed some of the most aggressive drivers I've encountered were from out-of-state. A Honda with California plates sticks out in my mind.
