Native, a few questions about cars
How would you naturally write the sentences please?
1 Each car can be bought in automatic or stick shift.
2 You shouldn't judge people on the car they drive. Someone people's cars are somehow in inverse relation to their income.
3 That's the most stolen car. That's the car that gets stolen the most.
Thank you so much

Oh. Sorry—I misread number 2. It should be "Some people's cars are somehow in inverse relation to their income." If all we're talking about is natural vs. unnatural English, it's fine with that small correction.
