    "International students" SO true.
    I lived nearby Syracuse University and I'd see Asian foreign students literally driving Bentley's, Ferrari's and Lamborghini's through the harsh, cold, salty winters at school. Money is no object to people like that. All while wearing Canada Goose jackets, Prada/Gucci sunglasses, and the latest $5000 purses. They live in a whole different world than the rest of us.

      Asians are typically a different beast altogether in terms of spending for things like this. While westerners think that they bought a luxury product because they "like it", asian buy these luxury goods because they have a "face" to maintain. Basically, as an asian, you can't look poor, even when in reality you're eating instant ramen at home. Many asian will go on debt just to buy a luxury good so they can look good in front of their peers, it's just the culture. Even if their parents isn't as rich back home, they have to keep their "face" up, else they'll be looked down upon, or at least that's how it is in their home country.
      But most likely it's just rich parents, or just kids that couldn't get into good uni at their country, so they have to save face by going abroad. Kinda feel sorry for the latter though, sometimes their parents are just scraping by, but have to buy expensive goods for their kids because they don't wish their kid get looked down and bullied or something. It's sadly a common story for where I'm from.

    There are far more wealthy people who can afford basic Ferrari, Lamborghini and McLaren models even at 500k. The real game changers in the exotic space are the bespoke builders at ultra low volume: Pagani and Koenigsegg among few others. The luxury market is watered down with too many poorly built 500k cars that fall apart in a few years or less. This nuance of poor quality vs high performance was tolerated in the 70s, 80s and 90s when the wealth needed to afford even a Porsche was less present. Now your mom is driving a Porsche SUV and you can buy a used Maserati for 18k$.
    In the pursuit for market share and volume the companies are treading a really fine line of profit vs exclusivity. At the end of the day most of them need to fail and rebuild as a new name multiple times to create the rarity needed.
    The second biggest issue is driving feel. Electric engines, highly electric suspension and transmissions that shift perfectly sort of ruin the experience of owning and driving these cars. The companies that will exist in the future will ultimately reject most modern utilities and instead blend them delicately over the years. 0-60 in 2 seconds isn't special when a Tesla can do that. A manual transmission car that demands driver attention and restraint is truly exclusive.

    Unlike jewelry, which has almost no practicality whatsoever, luxury vehicles happen to have "some" practicality due to their nature as a vehicle that could be used to travel from place to place. The introduction for this video gives me the impression that the topic isn't approached from the perspective of the would-be buyers, who are more likely to use the vehicles as a symbol of prestige, that they can not only afford the sticker price, but also the costs of maintaining the vehicle that it looks pristine in spite of the use.
    From a mercantile perspective on luxury goods, the value of what you're selling is only as high as the value people are willing to pay for it, and the reputation of a manufacturer and its product are more important than the actual utility it provides. If you wish to see why people buy these products in spite of their practical drawbacks, you may want to do a deeper analysis of who buys these products, their demographic, and then ask them what each brand is associated with, and why- Some reasons to note are buying one to become closer to a fellow of the same demographic, the policies and past/recent history of the company, the appearance, and so on. Whether or not it's all practical is unlikely to be part of the consideration.

    If you took any intro to accounting class, you learned the Seven Year Rule. For things like vehicles and furniture, it takes approximately seven years for depreciation to cut the value of the "asset" by 50%. Looking at something with a high price tag, like a luxury car, the absolute number is enough to be alarmed. But the maintenance costs will surely add to that enormous number. This is obviously a vast simplification, but it gives you a good enough idea.

      I doubt the rule of 7 years applies to cars. New cars lose value a lot faster, with 50% being reached in 2-4 years. And 10+ year old cars typically are ripe for export to the third world after another 7 years because they are too expensive to keep running in the western world.
      For real luxury (and by that I do not mean Porsche Cayennes selling in the thousands each month), depreciation is a bit different anyway. For one, if production is intentionally limited, prices on the secondary market are often higher. And for two, people do not buy a Ferrari because it is cheap to run and comfortable to drive or buy a hand-made mechanical watch because it keeps time so well. People buy these things as status symbols, and high purchasing and/or running costs just make them even better suited to display status

      I would estimate the 50% mark to be reached at 3-4 years today, and with rising fuel costs, this period will likely shrink as the costs of ownership increase.

Luxury car brands would be Audi/Mercedes/Lexus/Infiniti/AstonMartin/Bently/Rolls Royce/ etc. Porsche for example is one of the only car brands whose cars appreciate. There is a reason for that and it sure as heck isn't luxury!

    There's a difference between a "luxury car" and an "exotic car". The former is GUARANTEED to depreciate in value, while the latter often times do become appreciating assets due to their rarity & exclusivity.

    The price depreciating curve only ends if the vehicle becomes a classic, noteworthy or even determined by people to be cool. Such as early vehicles like any Old Ford Model T or the derivatives since the historical nature of it, classic mustang or lets say even the First few Hummers. There will be a market of people willing to buy them depending on the quality

    I would say in general the influencer culture has ruined the "luxury" industry across the board. When you see these low class unaccomplished people having the expensive stuff you really don't want to be associated with people like this. More importantly these bottom feeders have increased demand making luxury stuff more expensive for the people it was originally intended for. I see that watches and collector car prices are starting to go down which is the correct direction.
    Porsche is not a luxury brand. It is a premium brand like mercedes and bmw. They do have very expensive cars in the 200K range but those are outliers. I think it is insane how a G wagen goes down $10K a year in value like clockwork
    Aston and Maserati are garbage cars. I would be more inclined to call them luxury because you have to truly be rich to eat that depreciation.
    Ferrari is not independent. They are owned by Fiat. I am wondering what happens when all cars have to be electric. Enzo Ferrari said you are buying the engine not the car. Now there is not going to be an engine who knows how ferrari will do. Of course there are always going to be poseurs who want anything expensive but how about the purists and actual enthusiasts?

    • @NotAP05

      if by garbage you mean in terms of reliability then you must also add ferrari in that list, and also, the type of people who can afford an aston/ferrari really dont give a crap about that since they also have a secondary car used as a daily driver, and besides, in terms of looks, luxury and performance in terms of price range, nothing beats aston/ferrari/mclaren

    • @jonathanbowen3640
      @jonathanbowen3640 7 วันที่ผ่านมา +2

      Ferrari have nothing to do with Fiat. The only link would be Agnelli. Owners: Exor N.V. (24.65%); Piero Ferrari (10.48%); BlackRock, Inc. (6.07%); Public (58.8%)
      Aston Martin and Maserati garbage cars!?! Be sensible. Their depreciation is still better than on mainstream mass market brands at that price point.
      Porsche is pretty luxury dude, they have cars costing several hundred thousand dollars plus many sell at huge premiums (RS models for example).
      Porsche already have the all electric Taycan and are releasing the Boxster Cayman replacement that will be electric only. Most enthusiasts are not that bothered about acceleration but more about handling, steering. styling etc. There are cars such as the ionic N that bridge the gap between electric and what enthusiasts enjoy with simulated gearing etc.

      If Enzo was still alive Ferrari would have gone bankrupt because he doesn't care about reliability or innovation if that's what you are trying to say. The hate towards the new f80 divided people that know Ferrari Vs people that think they know Ferrari. The company has always been racing. Enzo started the company just to fund his racing career. V6 is part of Ferrari history. People buy Ferrari because it's red. Second reason is the performance and lastly the engine

  • @sonydominates
    @sonydominates 8 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

    The main difference between exotic cars and other luxury items is that the cost can be justified by the low volume not making up the R&D costs. I guess you can make the argument for a lot of the SUVs exotic brands are putting out since most are rebadges, but I strongly disagree that they lack innovation. High R&D costs and lack of economies of scale are what kill most of the other brands. Ferrari and Porsche are the exceptions. Ferrari has such a strong brand that they can essentially price any way they want. Porsche has the mainstream SUVs that offset a lot of R&D costs for their sports cars (part sharing between the 911 and 718 lineup does help a lot though). Both charge a ridiculous amount for options since they have the brand recognition and demand for customers to be willing to pay as mentioned.
    Even for large automakers, they're reluctant to make sports cars, because they lack economies of scale to justify their development costs. Also, car enthusiasts are a very picky bunch, so it's mostly the ones that are well engineered with a cult following or those that share parts with conventional cars that tend to survive.

    0:56 the reason people buy these cars is not for trunk space, they purchase because of the driving experience. When you learn how to drive speed bumps and low visibility issues become a small con to a greater drive. Buying the right exotic car at the right time will be less expensive than a luxury car.
    Buy a Porsche 911(any model) vs S Class(not amg) the 911 will retain more value each year than the S Class. Furthermore, buy a Mercedes SUV(not a G Wagon) and you’ll see depreciation like an anchor in water

    That ad is silly - a quick Google search shows that Harley Davidson has three electric models currently for sale featured on their website. Also, a lot of the focus here is on exotics rather than luxury cars. I suppose you could term all of these as "luxury items", so the label fits, but not perfectly, as prominent firms like Mercedes are left out, as well as luxury lines of the big auto manufacturers. The conclusion reached here is true for exotics, but may not be true across the board for luxury cars, e.g. I would not show production and financials of Lamborghini as a comparable case to an established auto maker looking to start a a first or additional luxury line - I'd show them Lexus. If someone wants to start a company selling low volume high cost vehicles, then exotics firms would be relevant.

    Although you make a good amount of valid points, you’re still a lot that you have either missed interpreted or just don’t understand. A lot of brands are just woefully mismanaged like McLaren in Aston Martin they do need backing, but they also need the proper management to know how to market service and govern into the future effectively. As you’ve demonstrated in your own grass, Bentley is doing well, but again it is at a price point similar to Rolls-Royce. It’s not meant to be growth. Also, you’re biased due to your sponsorship needs to be noted because like the best majority of EV start ups, they have a huge mountain to climb. The future is an all electric. It’s an option, but it’s no longer the only viable way forward because it cost so much more to make an EV and the residual holding values think harder than a lot of exotic cars as well.
