I understand that Rap artists have a penchant for being showy. Every other music video depicts them riding around bling'd out cars.
But seriously, why do they have to pick on luxury UK cars, which have been synonimous with well to do, entrepenuers and business leaders for so many years. Twenty years ago, Rolls Royce would have refused to sell their cars to people who they might have thought would lower the tone of what their company symbolised. Aston Martin used to call in any prospective buyers to test their skills before selling a car to them. That's why, twenty years ago 99% of all Astons ever sold, were still on the road. They were respected by their owners. These days, they are given ridiculous wheels, paint jobs and interior colour schemes that any normal person would baulk at.
It proves the point. Many Americans simply do not have taste. It's all about showing the world just how much money you have.
Look at me! I spent $200,000 on a car, and another $100,000 ruining it!
