This thread is going downhill quick.
Did you think England was a third world country not expect to see a Mini or 911?
Go find some exotics and super cars now

So is NYC. But I don't see such a high concentration of luxury cars. Even in the affluent areas. Different strokes for different folks.
I don't care if I live in London, Delaware or the middle of nowhere. I love sports and sporty cars. Something that is deeply ingrained in my head

I can almost see John Lennon coming out of the silver Mini on the way to the studio to wrap up recording Sgt. Pepper's (1967).

The thread was not meant to be about exotics. This is more of a social commentary. I am just surprised how much luxury and expensive sports cars exist in an area where there are few open roads, cars are more expensive and real estate prices are exhorbitant. As the average joe makes less relative to 20 years ago, the upper crust proportionally makes more. Finance and banking find more ways to hold onto money. The average joe has little idea this is happening to him. The selfish me doesn't mind but my conscience says this not good for society.

On the other hand, Porsche ownership, new or used, is much more accessible in the US than in the UK (and especially more accessible compared to most European countries). So we can be concerned about economic inequality, but in places that try to level the field, through taxes or other means, more people cannot afford what they want. That might serve the needs of those near the bottom of the economic ladder, but the broader impact is negative.
