"Hey fool...you gotta have the phattest hooptie in town!"

Hooptie finds it's origins dating back to the mid 1950's. The original, corrupted phrase is 'Coupe D', referring to a Cadillac Coupe deVille. Over time, Coupe D was rolled together into hooptie. Used to describe everything from "any old car" (thank Shaq for that) or more specifically a large domestic sedan. Popularized by Sir Mix-a-lot, the word moved from a mere description to a slur. Oddly enough, the word can have a variety of meanings, depending on the context, ranging from pride of ownership to an outright insult.
"Man, check out this new hooptie I picked up. $500 and the dash is still perfect!"
"Dammit! my (insert cool car here) is in the shop. Guess I'll mob the hooptie to work."
"Well, it might be a hooptie, but hey, it's got it's own class of demolition derby."

Any car that I can afford since my second divorce.
My hooptie sure smells like burning today.

Any car, typically an older or particularly cheap model, which has had more than its value's worth invested in aftermarket (and typically cheap-looking) modifications.
The archetypetal hooptie is a beaten 70's-model American car with dark tinting and flashy (if not actually expensive) rims, but may include anything from an iced out Geo to a dilapidated van or Honda.
Compare with beater; contrast with whip.
Instead of investing money in a newer or more reliable car, Tito continued to drop more cash into laying the bling on his hooptie.

1. An old piece of crap car.
Features include: a plume of blue oil-soaked smoke coming from the exhaust - general odor of beer vomit and french fries - a Kraco stereo with a 10 year old Nirvana cassette stuck in the player - flat white, flat blue and Bondo red in color.
2. Any Saturn automobile ever sold.
Man, that hooptie should be up on blocks at the trailer park by now!

Any car that has been pimped out at the Wal*Mart high school car section. Such enhancements might include but are not limited to the following: a peeling do-it-yourself tint job, chain links around the license plate, plastic hubcaps (4.99 when they've been rolled back), racing pads covering the seatbelts, excessive use of window decals, a sound system right out of the Wal*Mart electronics section, an overly aggressive after market spoiler.
Look at Freshman Dave rollin' in his hooptie to the pep rally.

A car that tends to be older often with an addition of shiny rims and a lowering of the suspension. Car is driven with windows down and a motion being made of lowering and raising a flat outstretched hand. Yea.
You wanna ride in my hooptie, its the shiznit!
