Suburbans and expeditions. those things are ungodly expensive.
Split window stingray.... yeah old vette is a little flashy... but only those that know would even notice the split window and all of a sudden.... $$$$$$ car!
I read somewhere a lower mileage, clean, dealer maintained older s class (02+?). The idea is you must have a lot of money to keep that type of car running on the road.

I don’t know how it’s really a flex to own a car that spends more time at the dealer than on the road. Which an 02 S class definitely would.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
To me that screams “need the badge but can’t afford a car that works”

It's a flex cause he has F U money to keep the car running while he can probably finance a new car instead.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

To most people this doesn't look like a $300k plus vehicle exterior wise.
Probably also depends when they made their money. A lot of people just run a car until it dies then buy something else. If I have a 5 year old car that still runs great and sell a business for a few million I'd probably still rock the same car since it runs fine. But you can bet that when it does finally die that I'll buy something nicer because I want it to last and not worry about it. Maybe not Beyond baller nice, but something definitely as a treat.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

My pitch: E63 Wagon with Thule on top or Land Rover Defender.

Being an accountant over the years I have always enjoyed seeing how people with such varied incomes will drive such varied vehicles. Everyone has their own priority.
Personally, I think low-key flex pretty much has to be an American brand, as the general public will base the value of the vehicle and the douchiness of the owner purely on the badge on the vehicle. Top level F150 or Expedition or Denali half ton or SUV is pretty low key. Most people have no idea how expensive or nice they are inside. Although to not be a douche, when someone asks what you drive, you have to answer "Ford" or GMC", and not "King Ranch" or "Denali" otherwise you are now trying too hard and obviously are trying to impress.
