    Because the people who bought these cars paid $100k (at least) for them and they drive them around as symbols of technological power and efficiency.

    Meanwhile, the rest of us are traveling around in a $19k Toyota Camry that works just fine.

      Must be nice to be able to afford a $19K Camry. I’m just happy that I could afford my 20-year-old $10K 350Z (and only because I had some life insurance money).

        Yeah, I thought that would be a good generic example.

        I went ten years without driving or owning a car.
