    They’re in there. 1 in 1000 ultra rich car guys will actually be really into the cars themselves rather than the status symbol.

    Some that come to mind are the guys that will endlessly restore, race, crash, repeat vintage racecars. They’ll get in turn-of-the-century deathtraps, slam into a wall, and basically go “ah i guess we’re restorin’ again” in a crossover episode of the ship of thesius and Sisyphus.

    The only rich guys I sorta respect are the kind that will put themselves into harms way for their interests.
