High end practical for people with families- have seen lots of SUVs (BMW X5, Audi Q5, Tesla Model Y).  Everyday cars also common (F150, Camry, Explorer, etc).  A couple of Ferraris and Porsches sprinkled in for the big bosses (underlings may technically be able to afford them, but don’t want to show off).  This is what I’ve observed in Houston.

 

The only reason for this question is OP wants to jerk off to all the cars and dream about how he's gonna read Bloomberg and get all the chicks..... *faceplam*

 

yeah honestly it's only good if ur in the suburbs and ur office is also in the suburbs or u have some nice open road with great views.  At that point, I wouldn't mind renting a Porsche or Aston Martin.

 

whats wrong with that tho? if it motivates him to do well then more power to him. you sound like the type of guy to shit on people for liking wolf of wall street.

Huge part of what motivated me to get into the industry was the prospect of being able to afford nice cars

(though after briefly owning a 987 Cayman S ive concluded that servicing/parking/traffic/gas/tsunami waves of registration/paperwork and bureaucratic shit are all a massive headache not to mention not being able to drink lol)

 

I think most people know wolf of Wall Street is a movie.  Only issue is when people actually think it's reality and forget it was made to entertain people.

Oh huge part of your motivation was for the cars?  You're exaggerating right?

 

I know a few energy traders who mostly have BMW and Porsche SUVs (X5 or Cayenne).
Some other FX trader I know has a Tesla Model S.

 

From what i’ve seen in London, Porsche’s or Aston Martin’s seem to be the car of choice and quite a few I know have a Volvo as a second car for their countryside trips. Though not a trader, I drive an Audi SQ5, nothing too expensive. Hoping to eventually save up for a Range Rover SVR or Audi RS Q8 eventually.

 

I'm guessing because most of them have Aston martins because they grew up in Bond movies' heyday.
