In an interview with The Guardian, Taylor Swift revealed that the first car she used money to buy was a Lexus SC430, the car that Regina George used in Mean Girls. Explaining this choice, Taylor affirmed that a group of female friends in middle school were big fans of the Plastics group in the movie, and these friends also often looked down on her.

Inspired by the iconic 2004 teen movie Mean Girls, Swift’s first car purchase was a Lexus SC430 convertible, the same one driven by the ringleader of the ‘Plastics’ clique Regina George.
In an interview with The Guardian, Taylor explained, “All the girls who were mean to me in middle school, like, idolised the Plastics. I think I chose that car as a kind of rebellion against that type of girl.”
We love the idea that Taylor got to recreate the legendary ‘get in loser, we’re going shopping’ scene.
