My oldest brother owns one. But he's not into marketing he's the vice president of our local smith barney
With that said, I drive a honda civic 2010. Nothing fancy. But I have 3xs as much $$$ in the bank as my oldest brother.
Certain people value status symbols like cars, expensive golf clubs, etc. I think that's fine.
But I can say for a fact, first time I drove in my brothers car..... it was one of the most awkward moments of my life.
EVERYBODY stares at you. At stoplights, it doesn't matter which way you look you will find someone eyeing you down
like they wanna put a shank in your neck.
One day we had to drive through a ghetto in Asbury Park, NJ. We got stopped twice by homeless at red lights trying to
pan handle and clean his windows. We got whistled at by a crack dealer. We got tailed for 2 miles by a cop basically till
we left the ghetto.
Needless to say, I just don't like that kind of attention. I thought women would be taking their clothes off and jumping
on his car... but instead we got eyed down by angry rednecks, chased down by homeless people and tailed by the cops.
