Yes, you would think the area with the 2nd most centi-millionaires in the world and hundreds of thousands of millionaires would have these kinds of cars overflowing, but such is not the case-I think this comment from the vid you posted says it best:

I think maybe it's a tech thing? who knows.
Yeah, most likely; they’d rather spend more $$ on hoodies than exotic cars. Whereas LA flexes as a result of the entertainment industry, Miami flexes as a result of the finance industry presence (think Wolf of Wall Street)—both of these types (along with Instagram, Only Fans, OTH poseurs) h feel the need to spread their wings and draw attention, I.e. peacocks, more so than tech bros.

I feel like Miami is the place where everyone has money, just don’t ask questions about how they got it. Lots of affluence from Latin America, certain “families” from NY, etc.
Maybe that has changed some and it’s really more finance now?

Finance, small business, family $ from abroad, transplants and “creative accounting” (money laundering, fraud, illicit activities).
Just took a look at 500K+ earners in a few select metros and places.
Bay Area - 72,770
DC Metro - 48,272
Manhattan - 43,429
Greater Boston - 31,631
Westchester (NY) - 17,371
Fairfield (CT) - 13,727
Nassau (NY) - 12,576
Miami - 12,434
Atlanta - 10,113
Philly - 7,172
Dallas - 4,155
This data doesn’t look accurate as I’ve read here that Atlanta and Miami have more money than DC and LA.
