Even lexus have their own unique sophisticated touch, such as vip parking in local malls as a loyalty program to their customer, which is a very nice bonus (really hard to find free parking lots here) and also a free flow haagen dazs and equil waters every time you buy car or visit their workshop for maintenance. Plus, if you're a buyer of somewhere outside capital region, you'll get a free 5 star hotel, business class plane ticket and vip limousine to deliver you to their main gallery.

But yes, the absolute majority of people see cars as transportation devices and nothing more, so they don't buy anything like this. Also, what a lot of car people don't understand is that because of the rise of self-driving vehicles, this hobby is very close to dying, or at least very close to changing completely. A very small amount of people will modify cars once you can't drive them on regular roads (we will some day transition completely to self driving cars), and you can't modify a car which is driven completely by a computer.
