The wealthiest one percent are growing richer, while the remaining 8.2 billion people on the planet experience financial strain. This growing wealth gap is evident in the enthusiast car market, as demonstrated by the recent Monterey Car Week coverage. High-net-worth individuals are indulging in automotive luxuries such as the Aston Martin Valkyrie, McLaren McL6GT, Gordon Murray Automotive S1, Lamborghini Revuelto SV, Bugatti Destrier, and Hennessey Blackbird.
