wealthy people don't invest in cars. there is no "investing" in cars. rich people already know this... they buy, keep for 6 months, get a new one.
I work with ultra high net worth (20M+ in investable assets) people and they barely spend more than 50-60k on a new car. They usually use it for 5+ years.

Most people flipping cars like that are the under 1-2M in assets who want to be perceived as ultra high net worth.
