people shopping in the 100-500k bracket aren't as jaded as you think they are. they still know the value of the dollar.
Well, that may be true right up until you cross the Russian border, then they just lose their senses. Today I saw a brand new X5 M that was sanded down and painted flat carbon black - emblems and all. Here, that's a $150,000 car at least. Then there is the new AMG I saw with the nature scene mural painted on it............ More dollars than sense for sure! Here it's all about prestige. Hell, you can't even drive fast no matter what you have. I don't know how many times I've walked down a street and passed a Ferrari stuck in traffic. Even if he does get on an open road, 9 months out of the year its going to be covered with snow anyway.
