I’m not sure this is limited to wealthy people. I see plenty of non-wealthy people taking 5-year car loans that they can’t afford in order to purchase a luxury car.
Pineapple as status symbol; car as status symbol.
It might just be a human trait not dependent on wealth, like ostentatious male peacocks showing off their plumage.
