Cars in Miami

So I'm on vacation in Miami, Florida and it seems that every other car is a Bentley. I live in Missouri so Bentleys are a rare sight but here it seems like there's one at every stop light. They're now starting to annoy me. Haha. Porsche 911's are very common as are Maserati's. I've been here a couple days now and have seen an average of three or four ferarri's a day and maybe one or two lamborghinis a day. But it seems like everyone's driving a Bentley. I dunno, thoughts on this or maybe the most popular $100,000 cars in your areas?

Yeah, there is a ton of expensive cars in South Beach. All the guidos trickle down from New York and New Jersey.

There are a bunch here too... went to my client's ridiculous new 15,000 sq. ft. mansion yesterday to hook up his internets.

In his garage(s):

Escalade (wife's "old" car)
Cayenne TurboS (wife's daly driver)
Convertible Gallardo (garage queen that went on Gumball 3000 )
Carrera GT (only 1270 ever built)
911 TurboS (apparently faster than GT)
Rolls Phantom
Lincoln Limo (nothing special, except for $10K sound system)

Coming in June:
Bently Continental Supersport for his wife.

You will see almost every high end car here in Miami, especially on the beach. A few blocks from my house there is a restaurant that almost every night has close to $2 million in 3 or 4 cars parked in the valet.

I am not surprised that you see so many Bentley's, since they depreciate like rocks in the Atlantic. The most common cars are Ferrari's, Lambo's, and Aston's.

Enjoy your stay!

Might I add the driving etiquette here is probably worse than NY? I was in NY early last year and I thought it was pretty bad, but here in Miami it's so much worse.

I feel as you get closer to the coasts in the US you go the less people pay attention to road signs and obey traffic laws. The midwest is where everyone does everything right.

There are spots that rent exotics for the day in SoBe too. So maybe you saw some real owners? Maybe not?
